Adopts and modifies IEC 60669 1:2017 (ED. 4.0) for Australia and New Zealand, specifying general requirements for manually operated general purpose functional switches, for alternating current (AC) only with a rated voltage not exceeding 440 V with a rated current not exceeding 63 A, intended for household and similar fixed electrical installations, either indoors or outdoors.

This Standard adopts IEC 60079-13:2017 (ED 2.0) with modifications for Australia and New Zealand, which provides requirements for the design, construction, assessment, verification and marking of rooms used to protect internal equipment by pressurization or artificial ventilation (or both as applicable) when located in an explosive gas atmosphere or combustible dust atmosphere hazardous area. Such rooms may be with or without an internal source of flammable gas or vapour and may provide a means of protection for installations associated with explosive atmospheres.

Specifies requirements for wrought aluminium and aluminium alloy flat sheet, coiled sheet and plate for general engineering purposes. Chemical composition, mechanical properties and allowable tolerances on dimensions are specified. An appendix provides information on typical fabrication characteristics and applications.

Specifies requirements for gypsum plasterboard intended for use in buildings as a lining material for walls, ceilings and partitions and providing a surface suitable for receiving decorative treatments.

The objective of this Standard is to give guidelines for enhancing an organization’s ability to achieve sustained success. This guidance is consistent with the quality management principles given in AS/NZS ISO 9000:2016.

This Standard sets out methods of sampling masonry units, segmental pavers and flags for testing of a lot, for the test methods given in AS/NZS 4456.2 to AS/NZS 4456.19 inclusive.

AS/NZS 62368.1:2022 adopts IEC 62368‐1:2018 (ED 3.0) with modifications for Australia and New Zealand, which applies to the safety of electrical and electronic equipment within the field of audio, video, information and communication technology, and business and office machines with a rated voltage not exceeding 600 V. This document does not include requirements for performance or functional characteristics of equipment.

Specifies a spectrophotometric method for the determination of manganese content between 0.01 percent and 2 percent in all types of iron and steel.

Specifies a spectrophotometric method for the determination of aluminium content in the range of 0.002 percent to 1.4 percent aluminium in all types of iron and steel. The method uses a mercury cathode, followed by solvent extraction to separate interfering elements, with alizarin red S to produce a chromogen which is measured at a wavelength of 490 nm.

​This Standard specifies test methods for the energy performance of incandescent lamps, both tungsten filament and tungsten halogen, that are used in general lighting service.
