BS EN IEC 63093-1:2020

This part of IEC 63093 specifies the dimensions and allowable limits of surface irregularities of ferrite cores.

It is intended that this document includes ferrite cores which are widely used and referenced in industry, either because they are included in national standards, or because they are seen to have broad-based use in industry. Where applicable, it is intended that the existing industrial name for each standard part appears with the part within this series.

It is intended that this document excludes ferrite cores which are specialty cores with limited use. Also, special cores which are only marginal variations upon standard cores are excluded.

A ferrite core produced by only one or two suppliers can generally be considered a specialty part, and not suitable as a standard core within this series. A ferrite core produced by three or more competing manufacturers can generally be considered to be a candidate to be included in this series.

IEC publishes electrical standards for families of ferrite cores, as well as this series of dimensional standards for families of ferrite cores. Modifications to the ferrite cores listed in one type of standard are reflected in the other type.

This document is considered as a general specification useful in the dialogue between ferrite core suppliers and users about surface irregularities.
