Scope

This part of IEC 63093 specifies the dimensions that are of importance for mechanical
interchangeability for a preferred range of E-cores made of ferrite and the essential
dimensions of coil formers to be used with them, as well the effective parameter values to be
used in calculations involving them. It also gives guidelines on allowable limits of surface
irregularities applicable to E-cores.The specifications contained in this document are useful in negotiations between ferrite coremanufacturers and customers about surface irregularities.The use of derived standards, which give more detailed specifications of component parts
while still permitting compliance with this standard, is discussed in Annex A.
