Full title and description
IEC 62087-4:2015 — Audio, video, and related equipment — Determination of power consumption — Part 4: Video recording equipment. This part specifies methods of measurement for the power consumption of video recording equipment with removable media and defines the relevant modes of operation for such measurements.
Abstract
IEC 62087-4:2015 is the first standalone part addressing power-measurement methods for video recording devices (for example DVD, Blu-ray recorders and devices using removable solid-state media). It replaces Clause 7 of IEC 62087:2011 and together with the other parts of IEC 62087 provides a consistent measurement framework for audio/video equipment power consumption under normal-use conditions.

Scope
This part specifies measurement methods applicable to video recording equipment that can be connected to the mains and use removable media. It defines and describes the different operating modes relevant for power consumption measurement and sets measuring conditions intended to represent normal use (not special safety-test conditions). IEC 62087-4:2015 cancels and replaces Clause 7 of IEC 62087:2011.
Key topics and requirements
- Definitions of operating modes for video recorders (e.g., playback, recording, idle, standby, off).
- Specified test conditions and procedures to ensure repeatable power measurements under normal-use scenarios.
- Measurement points, instrumentation accuracy and averaging methods to compute power consumption values.
- Applicability to removable-media recorders including optical disc (DVD/BD) and removable solid-state memory devices.
- Requirements for reporting measured results and any deviations from the standard test conditions.
Typical use and users
Test laboratories, manufacturers of video recording equipment, energy-efficiency program administrators, product compliance engineers and standards developers use this part to measure, report and compare the mains power consumption of video recorders under defined conditions. It is used to develop product energy labels, for design optimization, and for verifying compliance with energy-related regulations or voluntary programs.
Related standards
This part is one element of the IEC 62087 series (parts 1–6) which together replace IEC 62087:2011. It is related to IEC 62087-1 through IEC 62087-6 and to regional/adopted versions such as EN/EVS adoptions (for example EN 62087-4:2016 / EVS-EN 62087-4:2016). It should be used alongside other measurement or safety standards that apply to the equipment under test.

FAQ
Q: What is this standard?
A: IEC 62087-4:2015 is an international standard that specifies how to measure the mains power consumption of video recording equipment that uses removable media.
Q: What does it cover?
A: It covers measurement methods, defined operating modes (recording, playback, idle/standby, etc.), test conditions representative of normal use, instrumentation and reporting requirements specifically for video recorders including optical-disc and removable solid-state devices.
Q: Who typically uses it?
A: Manufacturers, product test laboratories, energy efficiency program managers, compliance engineers and standards bodies use it to obtain repeatable power-consumption measurements and to support labeling, regulatory compliance and product design decisions.
Q: Is it current or superseded?
