IEC 62642-6:2011 specifies the requirements, performance criteria and testing procedures for power supplies (PS) to be used as part of Intrusion and Hold up Alarm Systems (I&HAS). The PS shall either be an integral part of an I&HAS component or stand-alone. The control functions of the PS may be incorporated as part of the PS device, or may be provided by another I&HAS component e.g. a control and indicating equipment.
