IEC 61672-1 Electroacoustics - Sound Level Meter Specifications Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab

Standard-Related Information

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is responsible for developing standards that ensure the safety, performance, and interoperability of electrical and electronic devices. IEC 61672-1, also known as Electroacoustics - Sound Level Meters, is one such standard that sets out the specifications for sound level meters used to measure noise levels in various environments.

Relevant Standards

The following standards are relevant to IEC 61672-1:

  • ISO 9612:2009 (Acoustics - Determination of sound power levels of noise sources using sound pressure

  • EN 60804:2015 (Electroacoustics - Sound level meters for industrial environments)

  • ASTM E1014-14 (Standard Test Method for Sound Level Meters)

    • Legal and Regulatory Framework

    IEC 61672-1 is widely adopted by regulatory bodies around the world, including:

  • EU Directive 2003/10/EC on the minimum noise levels required to protect workers health

  • OSHA regulations in the United States

  • Canadian Standards Association (CSA) standards

    • Standard Development Organizations and Their Role

    IEC 61672-1 is developed by IEC Technical Committee 29 (TC 29), which comprises experts from various countries. These experts review and update the standard to ensure it remains relevant and effective.

    Standard Requirements and Needs

    This specific test is required to ensure that sound level meters meet international standards, ensuring accurate noise measurements in various environments. The consequences of not performing this test can include:
