IEC 60617:2026 DB

Graphical symbols for diagrams - 12-month subscription to regularly updated online database comprising parts 2 to 13 of IEC 60617

Edition date: 2026-03-04
In Force
Summary: IEC 60617:2012 DB contains graphical symbols for use in electrotechnical diagrams. Parts 2 to 13 of IEC 60617 have been incorporated into a database that currently includes some 1900 symbols. The database is the official source of IEC 60617. It replaces parts 2 to 13 of the previous published version (edition 2) of IEC 60617. The following areas are covered in the database: Conductors and connecting devices; Basic passive components; Semiconductors and electron tubes; Production and conversion of electrical energy Switchgear, controlgear and protective devices; Measuring instruments, lamps and signalling devices; Telecommunications transmission, switching and peripheral equipment; Architectural and topographical installation plans and diagrams. The incorporation of the symbols into the database has been accompanied by the addition of a considerable amount of new metadata not present in the previous publication (symbol name, usage, keywords, remarks, etc.) and links to related symbols and application notes. The database also provides classified views (by shape, function and application) and a search facility. It is therefore a much richer and more user friendly tool for those who need to understand and apply graphical symbols in electrotechnical diagrams. Symbols are available in GIF, DWG and EPS formats. The database is maintained by a validation team appointed by the IEC National Members. Requests for modifications and new symbols are processed via change requests addressed to the validation team by IEC National Committees and TCs.
Maintenance of IEC 60617 through the corresponding database. See report on recently processed change requests and symbols.
IEC 60617:2012 DB has the status of a horizontal standard in accordance with IEC Guide 108.

L'IEC 60617:2012 DB contient les symboles graphiques utilisés pour les schémas électrotechniques. Les parties 2 à 13 de l'IEC 60617 ont été regroupées dans une base de données qui contient aujourd'hui environ 1900 symboles. Cette base de données est la source officielle de l'IEC 60617. Elle remplace les précédentes versions publiées (édition 2) des parties 2 à 13. La base de données couvre les domaines suivants: Conducteurs et éléments de liaison; Composants passifs; Semiconducteurs et tubes électroniques; Production, transformation et conversion de l'énergie électrique; Appareillage et dispositifs de commande et de protection; Appareils de mesure, lampes et dispositifs de signalisation; Télécommunications, transmission, commutation et équipements périphériques; Schémas et plans d'installation, architecturaux et topographie. La base de données regroupe en plus des symboles, un nombre important de nouvelles métadonnées qui ne figuraient pas dans les publications antérieures (nom du symbole, utilisation, mots-clés, remarques, etc.) ainsi que des liens vers les symboles associés et des notes d'application. La base de données propose également une visualisation ordonnée (par forme, par fonction et par application) et une fonction de recherche. La base de données constitue dès lors un outil très complet et convivial pour quiconque désire comprendre et utiliser les symboles graphiques dans les schémas électrotechniques. Elle propose enfin régulièrement un condensé de l'information qu'elle contient, sous la forme de "snapshot" en format PDF, à télécharger. Un groupe de validation, appointé par les Membres de l'IEC, maintient la base de données à jour. Les demandes de modification ou de création de symbole sont adressées par les Comités Nationaux et les comités d'études de l'IEC au groupe de validation.
L'IEC 60617:2012 DB a le statut de norme horizontale conformément au Guide IEC 108.
