IEC 61076-4-001:1996 is a blank detail specification. It is a supplementary document to the sectional specification IEC 61076-4 and contains requirements for style, lay-out and minimum content of detail specifications. Detail specifications not complying with these requirements shall not be considered as being in accordance with the IECQ System, nor shall they be so described. The complete requirements for the printed board connectors described herein should correspond to this blank detail specification and the current issues of IEC 61076-1 and IEC 61076-4.
