    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    IEC/TR 62368-2:2015(E) provides explanatory information related to IEC 62368-1. Only those subclauses considered to need further background reference information or explanation of their content to benefit the reader are included. Therefore, not all numbered subclauses are cited. Unless otherwise noted, all references are to clauses, subclauses, annexes, figures or tables located in IEC 62368-1:2014. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2011. It constitutes a technical revision. This second edition updates the first edition of IEC 62368-2 published in 2011 to take into account changes made to IEC 62368-1:2010 as identified in the Forword of IEC 62368-1:2014. This Technical Report is informative only. In case of a conflict between IEC 62368-1 and IEC TR 62368-2, the requirements in IEC 62368-1 prevail over this Technical Report. Key words: Audio/Video, Safeguards, Information, Communication
