IEC 61039 pdf download Classification of insulating liquids
1Scope
This International Standard establishes the detailed classification of the N family (insulating liquids) that belongs to class L (lubricants, industrial oils and related products) in accordancewith ISO 8681 and ISO 6743-99, affecting product categories that include products derived from petroleum processing, synthetic chemical products and synthetic and natural esters.

3 ISo classification system
ISO 8681 sets out the main rules of the classification system that applies to petroleumproducts, lubricants and related products.
ISO 8681 suggests, as far as possible, to choose the application field as the main principle forthe classification of petroleum products, lubricants,and related products. It also suggestsclassifying on the basis of the product typology, e.g. fuels are classified first of all on thebasis of typology and secondly on the basis of end use.
The lSO classification principle is based on the allocation of a code consisting of letters andnumbers for the main classes and categories of petroleum products.
The complete nomination consists of:
– the initials “ISO”;
the class of the petroleum product or related product, indicated by a letter(see Table 1),which has to be clearly separated from the other symbols;
the category, indicated by a group of letters ranging from 1 to 4, the first one alwaysidentifying the family to which it belongs and the others assuming a meaning,
appropriately explained in the reference standard, which depends on the particularcategory of concerned products;
(optional) some numbers, which can be added, to complete the nomination and that havea meaning appropriately explained in the reference standard for that particular category ofproducts.
