The Global Electronics Association stands as the global authority for electronics manufacturing standards, shaping how printed circuit boards are designed, fabricated, assembled, and tested across the worldwide electronics industry. These IPC standards represent decades of collective expertise from thousands of industry professionals, creating specifications that ensure quality, reliability, and consistency in electronic assemblies that power […]
The energy from APEX EXPO 2026 is still vibrating through the halls of the electronics manufacturing community. As the premier event for the industry in North America, the Expo served as a powerful reminder that while technology moves at a breakneck pace, it is the standards underneath that keep it stable. This month, Accuris is […]
Accuris is proud to champion the individuals who dedicate their expertise and time to the standards community. Our ongoing SDO Hero Campaign recognizes the profound societal value of consensus-driven standards—the essential foundation for a safer, smarter, and more sustainable world. In our latest feature, we are proud to spotlight Jay Cameron, Principal Engineer at HSB […]
As we move deeper into 2026, the global energy landscape is no longer shifting – it has transformed. The “Digital Backbone” we’ve discussed in this series is no longer a theoretical framework; it is the active, pulsing nervous system of our modern world. If Blog 1 was about the vision and Blog 2 was about […]
In the world of global infrastructure, there is a silent language that allows a circuit breaker in Tokyo to communicate with a server in Frankfurt, or a residential solar array in Michigan to safely feed power back into a localized smart grid.
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) stands as the world’s leading organization for standardization in electrical, electronic, and related technologies, shaping how products and systems operate safely across international borders since 1906. These IEC standards represent the collective expertise of thousands of technical experts from over 170 countries, creating specifications that enable global trade, ensure product […]

In the electrical and electronics industries, access to the current revision of a standard is the difference between project success and system failure. We have compiled the “Top 15” IEEE standards that every professional needs in their library this year.
The Reality of the January 1st Implementation As of January 1, 2026, the 2025 Edition of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC) is no longer a future consideration – it is the mandatory standard for the industry. While most manufacturers have purchased the new code books, there is a significant difference between owning […]
Next week, the global standards community will gather in Scottsdale, AZ, for the 51st annual Standards Publishing Advisory Board (SPAB) meeting (February 23 – 25, 2026). What began as a meeting of five people in Denver organized by Information Handling Services has grown into the industry’s most influential summit for the key stakeholders who define our technical future.
The last decade of the Standards Publishing Advisory Board (SPAB) has been defined by professional resilience. As the host and organizer of SPAB, Accuris has worked to ensure this community has a steady platform to navigate the “Winds of Change” (the 2016 theme).
In the world of engineering, we often talk about “the edge” – the edge of discovery, the edge of the grid, or the edge of a network. But that edge is only as stable as the standards supporting it. This February, we are honored to name IEEE as our Publisher of the Month.
