Gives guidance on drafting those parts of specifications for magnetic cores concerned with measuring methods for magnetic and electrical properties of cores made primarily of magnetic oxides or metallic powders, and used in inductors and transformers for telecommunication and similar equipment.

This standard applies to magnetic cores, mainly made of magnetic oxides or metallic powders, used in inductors and transformers for telecommunication equipment and electronic devices employing similar techniques.

Some of the methods described in this standard may also be suitable for magnetic cores used in other components.
