What is BS EN 60384-20-1 ‒ Fixed capacitors for use in electronic equipment about?
BS EN 60384-20-1 is a part of an international multi-series standard that focuses on aspects of fixed capacitors for use in electronic equipment.
BS EN 60384-20-1 provides a blank detail specification for fixed metalized polyphenylene sulfide film dielectric surface mount d.c. capacitors for assessment level EZ.
BS EN 60384-20-1 guides for the preparation of detailed specifications. It gives the numbers between brackets on the first-page corresponding to the following information which shall be inserted in the position indicated.
BS EN 60384-20-1 describes the process of identification of the detailed specification as:
- The "International Electrotechnical Commission" or the National Standards Organization under whose authority the detailed specification is drafted
- The IEC or National Standards number of the detail specification, date of issue, and any further information required by the national system
- The number and issue number of the IEC or national generic specification The IEC number of the blank detail specification
Who is BS EN 60384-20-1 ‒ Fixed capacitors for use in electronic equipment for?
BS EN 60384-20-1 on Fixed capacitors for use in electronic equipment is useful for:

Why should you use BS EN 60384-20-1 ‒ Fixed capacitors for use in electronic equipment?
A blank detail specification is a supplementary document to the sectional specification and contains requirements for style and layout and minimum content of detail specifications.
BS EN 60384-20-1 presents you with the procedure to create a blank detail specification for fixed metalized polyphenylene sulfide film dielectric surface mount d.c. capacitors for assessment level EZ. It helps in producing a product specification for fixed capacitors that are used in electronic equipment.
BS EN 60384-20-1 sets out a framework for the identification of the capacitor as:
- A short description of the type of capacitor
- Information on typical construction (when applicable)
- When the capacitor is not designed for use in printed-board applications, this shall be clearly stated in the detail specification in this position
- Outline drawing with main dimensions which are of importance for interchangeability and/or referenceto the national or international documents for outlines. Alternatively, this drawing may be given in an annex to the detail specification
- Application or group of applications covered and/or assessment level
- Reference data on the most important properties, to allow comparison between the various capacitor types.
Adherence to BS EN 60384-20-1 will aid users in the creation of a detailed product specification for fixed metalized polyphenylene sulfide film dielectric surface mount d.c. capacitors for assessment level EZ.
