This European Standard specifies the grades of cold-rolled non-oriented electrical steel sheet and strip in nominal thicknesses of 0,35 mm, 0,50 mm, 0,65 mm and 1,00 mm. In particular, it specifies general requirements, the magnetic properties, geometric characteristics and tolerances, technological characteristics as well as the inspection procedure. This European Standard applies to materials supplied in the fully annealed condition intended for the construction of magnetic circuits. It does not apply to semi-processed material. These magnetic materials correspond to C.2.3.2.1 of IEC 60404-1:2000.
