There are different types of IEC norms that are used depending on the purpose and the type of product or service. Firstly, there are safety norms which ensure the safety of users and also of the environment. Secondly, there are performance norms which are used to measure the performance of products such as energy efficiency. Thirdly, there are interoperability norms that ensure systems and devices can communicate with each other. Lastly, there are conformity assessment norms that evaluate products and systems to ensure they meet the set standards.
