Joint draft standards

Draft standards are available for public comment for a specified period (usually 8 weeks)

38 joint Australian/New Zealand adoptions of IEC standards a 38 joint Australian/New Zealand adoptions of IEC standards and amendments and one AS/NZS revision

We are consulting on 38 adoptions of IEC standards and amendments and one revision of existing joint Australian/New Zealand (AS/NZS) standards. The proposed AS/NZS standards were prepared by Joint Technical Committee EL-002 Safety of household and similar electrical appliances and small power transformers and power supplies.

-Australia and New Zealand have input via EL-002 throughout the development process of the relevant ‘parent standards’ at IEC level. This ensures the health and safety of citizens in both countries. 
-Maintaining pace with the latest international best practices and requirements will reduce the risks to the public and workers using electrical appliances.
-The proposed adoptions of relevant IEC publications for electrical appliances are either identical adoptions (IDTs) or modified adoptions (MODs) which include Australian and New Zealand national variations. 
-The revision of AS/NZS 3160:2009 is proposed to seek public comment on whether this standard is still required for equipment not covered by AS/NZS 62941 series. If the standard is no longer needed, the new edition of AS/NZS 3160 will not be published.

Methodologies for the development of ontologies and taxonomies that relate to geographic information and geomatics are not within the scope of this document. This standard is identical with, and has been reproduced from, ISO 19146:2018, Geographic information - Cross-domain vocabularies.

Please note that this standard is currently being Proposed for reconfirmation with public/stakeholder consultation period ending 3 July 2025 Please click https://consultations.standards.govt.nz/draft-standards/d9bfb005 for further details and to provide feedback on this proposal.

Geographic information - Ontology, Part 2: Rules for developing ontologies in the Web Ontology Language (OWL)

The objective of this Standard is to define rules and guidelines for the development of ontologies to support better the interoperability of geographic information over the Semantic Web. The Web Ontology Language (OWL) is the language adopted for ontologies.

This part of AS/NZS ISO 19150 defines the conversion of the UML static view modelling elements used in the ISO geographic information standards into OWL. It further defines conversion rules for describing application schemas based on the General Feature Model defined in AS ISO 19109 into OWL.

This part of AS/NZS ISO 19150 does not define semantics operators, rules for service ontologies, and does not develop any ontology.

This Standard is identical with, and has been reproduced from, ISO 19150-2:2015, Geographic information — Ontology — Part 2: Rules for developing ontologies in the Web Ontology Language (OWL).

As this document has been reproduced from an International Standard, the following applies:

(a) In the source text ‘this part of ISO 19150’ should read ‘this Australian/New Zealand Standard’.

(b) A full point substitutes for a comma when referring to a decimal marker.

AS/NZS ISO 19160.1:2018 Addressing, Part 1: Conceptual model

Defines a conceptual model for address information (address model), together with the terms and definitions that describe the concepts in the model. Lifecycle, metadata, and address aliases are included in the conceptual model. The model is presented in the Unified Modeling Language (UML).

The model provides a common representation of address information, independent of actual addressing implementations. It is not intended to replace conceptual models proposed in other specifications, but provides a means to cross-map between different conceptual models for address information and enables the conversion of address information between specifications.

The model provides a basis for developing address specifications by individual countries or communities. Identical to and reproduced from ISO 19160-1:2015.

These data also include metadata, representation information, provenance, context and any other content items that capture the knowledge that are necessary to fully understand and reuse the archived data.

This standard also refers to characteristics of data formats that are useful for the purpose of archiving. This standard is identical with, and has been reproduced from, ISO 19165-1:2018 Geographic information - Preservation of digital data and metadata - Part 1: Fundamentals.

DR AS/NZS ISO 21952 Welding consumables - Wire electrodes, wires, rods and deposits for gas shielded arc welding of creep-resisting steels - Classification

The objective of this document is to specify requirements for classification of wire electrodes, wires and rods for gas shielded metal arc welding and tungsten inert-gas welding of creep-resisting steels, and for their deposits in the as-welded or post-weld heat-treated condition. One wire electrode can be tested and classified with different shielding gases.

This document is a combined specification providing for classification utilizing a system based upon the chemical composition of wire electrodes, wires and rods with requirements for yield strength and average impact energy of 47 J of all-weld metal, or utilizing a system based upon the tensile strength of the all-weld metal deposits and the chemical composition of wire electrodes, wires and rods.

Clauses, subclauses and tables which carry the suffix “system A” are applicable only to wire electrodes, wires, rods and deposits classified in accordance with the system based upon the chemical composition with requirements for yield strength and the average impact energy of 47 J of all-weld metal deposits under this document.

Clauses, subclauses and tables which carry the suffix “system B” are applicable only to wire electrodes, wires, rods and deposits classified in accordance with the system based upon the tensile strength of all-weld metal deposits and the chemical composition of wire electrodes, wires and rods under this document.

Clauses, subclauses and tables which do not have either the suffix “system A” or the “system B” are applicable to all wire electrodes, wires, rods and deposits classified under this document.

The objective of this document is to specify requirements for classification of solid wire electrodes, tubular cored electrodes, and electrode-flux combinations (the all-weld metal deposits) in the as-welded condition and in the post-weld heat-treated condition for submerged arc welding of high strength steels with a minimum yield strength greater than 500 MPa or a minimum tensile strength greater than 570 MPa. One flux can be tested and classified with different electrodes. One electrode can be tested and classified with different fluxes. The solid wire electrode is also classified separately based on its chemical composition.

This document is a combined specification providing for classification, utilizing a system based either on the yield strength and average impact energy of 47 J for the all-weld metal or on the tensile strength and average impact energy of 27 J for the all-weld metal.
