Work item: K.75 (ex K.interface)
Subject/title: Classification of interface for application of standards on resistibility and safety of telecommunication equipment
Status: Approved on 2008-04-13 
Approval process: AAP
Type of work item: Recommendation

Summary: This Recommendation provides guidance to manufacturers, network operators and test houses on the classification of the type of interface i.e. external (subjected to a.c. surges or conducted lightning surges) or internal (subjected to short fall-time transients induced into building cabling). This Recommendation defines telecommunication overvoltage categories as function of the inherent resistibility voltage of the equipment port or interface. For each category, the impulse withstand voltage between the telecommunication interface and person or hazardous circuit have been defined (peak value and waveshape). These peak values and waveshapes should be suitable for insulation coordination purposes.
