What is IEC 61355?
IEC 61355 is an international standard for classifying and designating documents in technical plants using a Document Classification Code (DCC), enabling systematic document management across a facility’s entire lifecycle.
Technical Definition: An international standard for the classification and designation of documents in technical plants. It defines a Document Classification Code (DCC) that categorises documents by function – drawings, specifications, calculations, reports – enabling systematic document management across a facility’s lifecycle.
Why it matters: Without standardised document classification, finding the right document in a large facility becomes a major time sink. IEC 61355 creates a structure that survives organisational changes and personnel turnover.
HubMind’s view: Proper document classification is part of every digital handover we carry out. The document structure must align with the reference designation system so information is always traceable.
