1 Overall safety lifecycle: overview
2 Safety integrity levels: target failure measures for a
safety function, allocated to an E/E/PE safety-related
system operating in low demand mode of operation
3 Safety integrity levels: target failure measures for a
safety function, allocated to an E/E/PE safety-related
system operating in high demand or continuous mode of
operation
4 Minimum levels of independence of those carrying out
functional safety assessment (overall safety lifecycle
phases 1 to 8 and 12 to 16 inclusive (see figure 2))
5 Minimum levels of independence of those carrying out
functional safety assessment (overall safety lifecycle
phase 9 - includes all phases of E/E/PES and software
safety lifecycles (see figures 2, 3 and 4))

A.1 Structuring information into document sets for user
groups
A.2 Structuring information for large complex systems and
small low complexity systems
Gives the aspects to be considered when electrical/electronic/ programmable electronic systems (E/E/PESs) are used to carry out safety functions. A major objective is to facilitate the development of application sector international standards by the technical committees responsible for the application sector. This allows the relevant factors associated with the application, to be fully taken into account and thus meet the need of the application sector. Applicable to safety-related systems when one or more of such systems incorporates electrical/electronic/ programmable electronic devices.
