Founded in 1906, the International Electrotechnical Commission is the international standards and conformity assessment body for all fields all electrical, electronic and related technologies (known collectively as “electrotechnology”).
IEC provides a platform to companies, industries, and governments for meeting, discussing, and developing the International Standards they require.
All IEC International Standards are fully consensus-based and represent the needs of key stakeholders of every nation participating in IEC work. Every member country, no matter how large or small, has one vote and a say in what goes into an IEC International Standard.
