Standards Interpretations

IEEE STANDARDS INTERPRETATIONS

Interpretations explain and clarify the intent of the standard; they do not constitute an alteration to the original standard or supply consulting information. New requirements cannot be made to fit situations not yet covered in a standard; new requirements are addressed through standard revisions or amendments.

Requesting an Interpretation
As of 1 January 2012, IEEE no longer accepts requests for interpretations of IEEE standards.

Submitting Comments
If you have a comment on an IEEE standard that you would like to submit, please complete the comment form (.doc). IEEE staff will receive the form, review the comments, and submit them to the appropriate standards developing committee for consideration.
