IEC 60840 is an internationally recognized standard developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) that defines the test methods and performance requirements for high-voltage power cable systems with extruded insulation. The standard applies to systems designed for rated voltages above 30 kV (Um = 36 kV) up to and including 150 kV (Um = 170 kV), making it the essential reference for cables used in power transmission infrastructure, grid interconnections, and large-scale industrial energy networks.

IEC 60502 is an international standard published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) that sets out the specification for power cables with extruded insulation. The standard covers cables with voltage ratings from 1 kV (Um = 1.2 kV) up to 30 kV (Um = 36 kV), designed for fixed installations such as distribution networks and industrial installations. This widely recognized standard serves as a primary reference for cable manufacturers worldwide and forms the basis for numerous national and regional cable standards.
