This part of IEC/IEEE 62395-1 specifies requirements for electrical resistance trace heating systems and includes general test requirements.

This document pertains to trace heating systems that can comprise either factory-fabricated or field-assembled (work-site) units, and which can be series and parallel trace heaters or surface heaters (heater pads and heater panels) that have been assembled and/or terminated in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

This document also includes requirements for termination assemblies and control methods used with trace heating systems.

This document provides the essential requirements and testing appropriate to electrical resistance trace heating equipment used in industrial and commercial applications. The products complying with this document are intended to be installed by persons who are suitably trained in the techniques required and that only trained personnel carry out especially critical work, such as the installation of connections and terminations.
