IEC 61219:1993/COR1:2000

IEC 61219:1993/COR1:2000 is a corrigendum to the parent document IEC 61219:1993, providing a supporting correction for Live working - Earthing or earthing and short-circuiting equipment using lances as a short-circuiting device - Lance earthing. It is relevant where organizations need accurate technical documentation for live-working earthing equipment, especially when maintaining safety-critical procedures, procurement records, or conformity assessment files. As a correcting reference, IEC 61219:1993/COR1:2000 helps ensure the underlying specification is interpreted and used with the intended technical precision.

Overview of IEC 61219:1993/COR1:2000

This corrigendum is connected to the original lance earthing document and is intended to amend or clarify the parent text rather than replace it. For engineering teams and compliance reviewers, IEC 61219:1993/COR1:2000 is useful when a technical document set must reflect the corrected form of the requirements for earthing or earthing and short-circuiting equipment using lances. It supports documented evaluation, technical review, and controlled use of the parent reference in safety-oriented workflows.

Compliance applications of IEC 61219:1993/COR1:2000

IEC 61219:1993/COR1:2000 may be used in compliance workflows for live-working equipment documentation, internal engineering validation, and procurement verification where lance earthing methods are specified. It is also relevant to laboratories, utility asset managers, and safety teams that rely on accurate technical references during testing workflows, risk management, and operational consistency checks. In practice, it can support technical assessment of equipment files, work procedures, and conformity assessment preparation tied to the parent standard.

Importance of compliance with IEC 61219:1993/COR1:2000

Using the corrected reference helps reduce ambiguity in safety-critical electrical work and supports more reliable quality workflows. For organizations involved in procurement, field operations, or verification activities, IEC 61219:1993/COR1:2000 can improve consistency between engineering documentation and the governing requirement set. That matters for safety, technical validation, and regulatory preparation, especially where live-working practices depend on precise interpretation of earthing and short-circuiting equipment requirements. It also helps strengthen confidence in compliance records and internal review processes.

• Corrigendum linked to the parent lance earthing document, not a standalone technical specification.
• Relevant for live-working earthing and short-circuiting equipment documentation.
• Useful in compliance workflows requiring corrected technical references for engineering review.
• Supports procurement checks, conformity assessment preparation, and controlled document sets.
• Helps maintain consistency in safety-focused electrical operational procedures.
