1 Scope
This part of IEC 61355 provides rules and guidelines for the classification of documents based on their characteristic content of information. A letter-code indicating the
document kind class is provided together with rules and guidelines for its application in
a document designation code. This standard is relevant for documents in all technical areas which are in use during the life cycle of a plant, system or equipment.
NOTE The defined classes and codes are intended to be used as values associated with metadata in document management systems (see IEC 82045‑1 and IEC 82045‑2).
