IEC 60092-352:2025 provides the basic requirements for the selection, installation and operating conditions of electrical cables intended for fixed electrical systems on board ships at voltages (U) up to and including Um 18/30 (36) kV, symmetrical category cables and fibre optic cables.
The reference to fixed systems includes those that are subjected to vibration (due to the movement of the ship) or movement (due to motion of the ship) and not to those that are intended for frequent flexing.
Cables subject to frequent or continual flexing use, which can withstand the mechanical stress and the environment they are exposed to, are detailed in other IEC specifications such as IEC 60227 and IEC 60245. Flexible cables are frequently used for retractable thrusters, elevators, moving decks, cranes, shore connections and other moving applications on board ships.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2005. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) modification of the part title;
b) complete review of the document and establishment of the match with all other standards from the group IEC 60092-350 to IEC 60092-379;
c) addition of terms and definitions;
d) addition of technical requirements for the installation of symmetrical category cables with transmission characteristics up to 1 000 MHz;
e) addition of the technical requirements for the installation of fibre optic cables;
f) addition of technical requirements for the installation of cables for installation between areas with and without explosive atmospheres

IEC 60332‑1‑2:2025 specifies the procedure for testing the resistance to vertical flame propagation for a single vertical electrical insulated conductor or cable, or optical fibre cable, under fire conditions using a 1 kW pre-mixed flame. The apparatus is described in IEC 60332‑1‑1.
NOTE 1 Testing to IEC 60332‑1‑2 can be performed simultaneously with that to IEC 60332‑1‑3, if required.
This group safety publication focusing on test method(s) is primarily intended to be used as a product safety standard for the products mentioned in the scope, but is also intended to be used by technical committees in the preparation of standards for products similar to those mentioned in the scope of this group safety publication, in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 104 and lSO/lEC Guide 51.
NOTE 2 The performing of this test method on a single insulated conductor or cable or optical fibre cable does not provide compliance with fire propagation requirements in relevant standards in the case that the single insulated conductor or cable or optical fibre cable is installed with or amongst other cables as a group. (See the IEC 60332‑3 series).
One of the responsibilities of a technical committee is, wherever applicable, to make use of basic safety publications and/or group safety publications in the preparation of its publications.

IEC 60331-4:2024 specifies the test apparatus and procedure, and gives the performance requirements, including recommended flame application times and flame temperatures, for power cables of rated voltage higher than 0,6/1,0 kV up to and including 18/30 kV for maintaining circuit integrity when subject to fire and mechanical shock under specified conditions.
The test method in this document is restricted to conductor sizes up to and including 120 mm2. The test results for 120 mm2 size conductors constructions qualify larger cross-sections of the same cable construction.
In the case of preassembled three-core cables, then the complete cable is considered as tested when a complete single-core of the cable has been tested.
This document includes details for the specific point of failure, continuity checking arrangement, test sample, test procedure and test report relevant to electric power cables with a rated voltage higher than 0,6/1,0 kV up to and including 18/30 kV.
Annex A provides the method of verification of the burner and control system used for the test.
Annex B provides a choice of the recommended test apparatus.
Annex C provides, as an option, guidance for using either water spray or water jet protocols.
Annex D provides, as an option, the flame temperature of 1 000 °C, which is applicable for special applications.
Requirements are stated for an identification that can optionally be marked on the cable to signify compliance with this document.
This group safety publication focusing on the test method for circuit integrity safety for power cables of rated voltage higher than 1 kV up to and including 30 kV under fire conditions, is primarily intended to be used as a product safety standard for the products mentioned in the scope, but is also intended to be used by TCs in the preparation of publications for products similar to those mentioned in the scope of this group safety publication, in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 104 and lSO/lEC Guide 51.
One of the responsibilities of a TC is, wherever applicable, to make use of either BSPs or GSPs, or both, in the preparation of its publications.
WARNING – The test given in this document can involve the use of dangerous voltages and temperatures. Suitable precautions should be taken against the risk of shock, burning, fire and explosion that can arise, and against any noxious fumes that can be produced.
