Full title and description
St IEC 61300-3-33-2022 cor1-2023 — Corrigendum 1 to IEC 61300-3-33:2022: "Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components — Basic test and measurement procedures — Part 3-33: Examinations and measurements — Withdrawal force from a resilient alignment sleeve using pin gauges". This corrigendum publishes corrections and clarifications to the 2022 edition of the part, updating/clarifying test details for measuring withdrawal force using pin gauges.
Abstract
This document is Corrigendum 1 to IEC 61300-3-33:2022 and contains editorial corrections and technical clarifications that affect the procedure and apparatus description for measuring the withdrawal force between a pin gauge and a resilient alignment sleeve used with single-fibre cylindrical ferrule optical connectors. It was issued to correct errors and improve clarity in the 2022 edition.

Scope
The corrigendum amends and clarifies elements of the test method used to measure the withdrawal force between a pin gauge and a resilient alignment sleeve for single-fibre cylindrical ferrule optical connectors. It addresses editorial errors and technical clarifications to the apparatus, test procedure and any referenced pin-gauge requirements in the 2022 edition. The underlying part (IEC 61300-3-33:2022) specifies the measurement procedure and apparatus for this withdrawal-force test.
Key topics and requirements
- Clarifications to the withdrawal-force measurement procedure between a pin gauge and a resilient alignment sleeve.
- Corrections or updates to the description of test apparatus (e.g., figure and fixture details) used for the pin-gauge test.
- Specification and clarification of pin-gauge requirements and related tolerances referenced in tables/figures.
- Editorial corrections that improve clause structure, terminology consistency (e.g., harmonization of terms such as "pin gauge") and normative references.
Typical use and users
Applied by connector manufacturers, quality and test laboratories, design engineers and certification bodies involved in optical connector production and verification. Users apply the corrigendum when performing or documenting the IEC 61300-3-33 withdrawal-force test to ensure procedures, apparatus and acceptance criteria follow the corrected 2023 text.
Related standards
Part of the IEC 61300 series (Basic test and measurement procedures) for fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components. Relevant related parts include other examinations and measurements in the Part 3 family (for example IEC 61300-3-1 visual examination, IEC 61300-3-2/3-3/3-6 for other measurements) and Part 2 test procedures for connector mechanical tests (e.g., IEC 61300-2-50 proof test). The corrigendum should be used in conjunction with IEC 61300-3-33:2022 (base document).

FAQ
Q: What is this standard?
A: This entry is Corrigendum 1 to IEC 61300-3-33:2022 — an official IEC correction document that amends and clarifies the 2022 edition of the test method for measuring withdrawal force from a resilient alignment sleeve using pin gauges.
Q: What does it cover?
A: It covers editorial corrections and technical clarifications to the apparatus description, procedure steps and pin-gauge requirements used when measuring the withdrawal force between a pin gauge and resilient alignment sleeve for single-fibre cylindrical ferrule optical connectors. The corrigendum itself is two pages and amends the 2022 edition.
Q: Who typically uses it?
A: Connector manufacturers, contract and in-house test laboratories, QA/validation engineers, product certification bodies and test equipment suppliers involved in optical connector verification and compliance testing.
Q: Is it current or superseded?
A: This corrigendum (IEC 61300-3-33:2022/COR1:2023) is a published correction to the current third edition (2022) and therefore is current as of its publication (May 2023). It does not supersede the whole standard but amends the 2022 edition; users should apply the corrigendum together with IEC 61300-3-33:2022.
Q: Is it part of a series?
A: Yes — it is part of the IEC 61300 series ("Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components — Basic test and measurement procedures"). The 61300 series contains many Part 2 (tests) and Part 3 (examinations and measurements) documents that together define connector and component test methods.
Q: What are the key keywords?
A: Withdrawal force, pin gauge, resilient alignment sleeve, fibre optic connector, ferrule, corrigendum, IEC 61300-3-33, test procedure, TC 86/SC 86B.
