This harmonized standard is based on IEC publication 60974-1: fifth edition, Arc welding equipment Part 1: Welding power sources, issued February 2017. IEC 60974-1 is copyrighted by the IEC.

In Canada, for general information on the Standards of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part II, see the preface of CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 0.

This standard has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group. This Standard has been approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) as an American National Standard. This American National Standard is an adoption of IEC 60974-1 edition 5, Arc Welding Equipment Part 1: Welding Power Sources, and was developed and approved in accordance with procedures set forth by the American National Standards Institute.

Scope:

This part of IEC 60974 is applicable to power sources for arc welding and allied processes designed for industrial and professional use, and supplied by a voltage not exceeding 1 000 V, battery supplied or driven by mechanical means.

This document specifies safety and performance requirements of welding power sources and plasma cutting systems.

This document is not applicable to limited duty arc welding and cutting power sources which are designed mainly for use by laymen and designed in accordance with IEC 60974-6.
