--- Change the maximum surface temperature requirements of Group III electrical
equipment (see 5.3.2.3 of this Edition; 5.3.2.3 of 2010 Edition);
--- Increase the requirements for liner retention and the use of cement (see 6.5 of
this Edition);
--- Change the requirements of the ultrasonic source (see 6.6.3 of this Edition; 6.6.3
of 2010 Edition);
--- Change the requirements for lasers, lamps or other non-divergent continuous
wave light sources (see 6.6.4 of this Edition; 6.6.2 of 2010 Edition);
--- Increase the replacement requirements of O-shaped elastic sealing ring (see
7.2.3 of this Edition);
--- Change the electrostatic charge requirements on external non-metallic materials
(see 7.4 of this Edition; 7.4 of 2010 Edition);
---Add the requirements for ancillary external metal parts (see 7.5 of this Edition);
--- Increase the requirements for the use of copper alloys for the enclosure (see 8.5
of this Edition);
---Add the requirements of Ex component explosion-proof certificate (see 13.5 of
this Edition);
---Add the requirements for cable entry devices, blanking elements, and threaded
pipe joints (see 16.3~16.5 of this Edition);
--- Change the supplementary requirements for rotating electrical machines (see
Clause 17 of this Edition; Clause 17 of 2010 Edition);
--- Change the supplementary requirements for plugs, sockets and connectors (see
Clause 20 of this Edition; Clause 20 of 2010 Edition);
--- Increase the types of single cells that can be used (see 23.3 of this Edition);
