Abstract
IEC 60838-1:2016 is available as IEC 60838-1:2016 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.

This fifth edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition published in 2004, Amendment 1:2008 and Amendment 2:2011. This edition constitutes a technical revision. The significant technical changes in this edition with respect to the previous edition include the introduction of new or revised requirements for single and dual contact ignition voltages, steel test caps and brass test caps and an Annex E listing amended requirements/clauses which require products to be retested.
