Definition Industry standards are voluntary agreements that establish requirements for products, practices, or operations in a given field. Organizations Developing Standards American Concrete Institute Developments standards for organizations involved in concrete design, construction, and materials.
Standards are cataloged individually in the CAT. It represents all five transportation modes: air, highways, public transportation, rail, and water. ANSI does not develop standards but examines and approves standards developed by others. Standards and specifications are cataloged individually in the CAT. ASABE Technical Library American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers ASABE organization is dedicated to the advancement of engineering applicable to agricultural, food, and biological systems to develop efficient and environmentally sensitive methods of producing food, fiber, timber, and renewable energy sources.
Database includes full-text access to their standards. All of the recent technical documents published by the American Society of Agricultural Engineers including full text access to journals, standards, technical reports, conference proceedings, and monographs. ASME Standards Collection Publishes standards covering piping, fittings, bolts, valves, hoists, cranes, fasteners, and elevators and escalators.

Reliability Standard means a requirement approved by the Commission under Section of the Federal Power Act to provide for reliable operation of the bulk power system. The term includes requirements for the operation of existing bulk power system facilities, including cyber security protection, and the design of planned additions or modifications to such facilities to the extent necessary for reliable operation of the bulk power system; but the term does not include any requirement to enlarge such facilities or to construct new transmission capacity or generation capacity.
Good Industry Practice means standards, practices, methods and procedures conforming to the Law and the degree of skill and care, diligence, prudence and foresight which would reasonably and ordinarily be expected from a skilled and experienced person or body engaged in a similar type of undertaking under the same or similar circumstances. Privacy Standards means the standards of the privacy of individually identifiable health information, as pursuant to HIPAA.
Good Industry Practices means any of the practices, methods and acts engaged in or approved by a significant portion of the power generation industry during the relevant time period, or any of the practices, methods or acts that, in the exercise of reasonable judgment in light of the facts known at the time the decision was made, could have been expected to accomplish the desired result at a reasonable cost consistent with good business practices, reliability, safety and expedition.
Good Industry Practices are not intended to be limited to the optimum practice, method or act to the exclusion of all others, but rather to be acceptable practices, methods or acts generally accepted in the region or as required by any Governmental Authority or standards setting agency including but not limited to FERC, ISO New England, the North American Electric Reliability Council, the Northeast Power Coordinating Council, and the Electric Reliability Organization.
The term includes, but is not limited to, telephones and other telecommunications products, information kiosks, transaction machines, Internet websites, multimedia resources, and office equipment, including copy machines and fax machines.
Water quality standards means provisions of state or federal law which consist of a designated use or uses for the waters of the Commonwealth and water quality criteria for such waters based upon such uses. Codes and Standards means all the applicable codes and standards as indicated in the Technical Specification. Ambient air quality standard means an established concentration, exposure time, and frequency of occurrence of air contaminant s in the ambient air which shall not be exceeded.
Using standard shapes and sizes for equipment components can be beneficial for the manufacturing community, as well as customers by making it easier to produce parts and products. People in the repair industry also benefit from industry standards. Knowing what to expect from given products can allow people to diagnose and repair problems much more quickly. They will also have ready access to parts for repair and maintenance, instead of having to order or fabricate parts for a custom fit.
People like plumbers and electricians rely heavily on standards, as well as building codes to keep their work consistent. Having standard practices allows people to pick up projects in the middle, or repair projects created by someone else, without having to puzzle out the methods the original worker used. Companies interested in adhering to industry standards can access information from a standards-setting institution. They can also submit products for inspection and certification if they want to assure consumers their products are made in accordance with the standard.
