Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/lEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. IsO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 23570-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 184, Industrial automation systems and integration, Subcommittee SC 1, Physical device control. Iso 23570 consists of the following parts, under the general title Industrial automation systems and integrationDistributed installation in industrialapplications: Part 1: Sensors and actuators Part 2: Hybrid communication bus Part 3:Power distribution bus ili ISO 23570-1:2005(E) Introduction subsystems for material preparation (metal removal, material forming, etc.), material handling, fixturing and transfer lines for moving parts from one station to another. Each subsystem, in turn, is itself a complex system, including many sensors, actuators and control elements that receive and transmit electric signals and/or require electric power. To reduce down time in case of failure, most of them use cable assemblies for quick replacement.Properoperationofthesystemasawholerequiresco-ordinationofthesubsystems,which requires more cables and connectors. As a consequence of this complexity, a large variety of cables and connectors is required for the proper operation of such a machine tool. The increasing number of sensors, actuatorsandcontrolelementsleadstoanincreasingvarietyofsuchcableassemblies.Thisvarietyresultsin increased maintenance costs,
