Re: [802SEC] revised draft agenda for 802 EC interim telecon scheduled for 1-3PM ET 06 OCT 2015
Dear Colleagues,
I wanted to provide some background on the agenda item (h) that Paul added for me titled 'Endorse the nomination of Joel Goergen and Bill Szeto as members of IEEE SCC 18 <http://sites.ieee.org/scc18/>'.
IEEE Standards Coordinating Committee 18 (SCC18) is a IEEE-SA Type 1 Standards Coordinating Committee and, as such, it does not develop standards. Instead, it provides IEEE representation to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) codes and standards making process. The NFPA is a non-government organization (NGO), originally supported by the insurance industry, which has developed many electrical and fire safety standards in the USA over the last 125 years. One such code is NFPA 70, the National Electrical Code (NEC), which is adopted in whole or in part by many municipalities, counties and states as law. SCC18 develops IEEE positions, and casts IEEE directed votes on NFPA proposals.
Recently an issue arose in relation to one of the latest updates, FR4643, proposed for NFPA 70 Code Panel 16 (CMP 16) and potentially impacting the IEEE Std 802.3 DTE Power via MDI specification, commonly referred to as 'Power over Ethernet'. While FR4643 has been of immediate concern, it has become apparent that IEEE 802.3 will need to take more of an interest in NFPA 70 in the long term. I therefore forwarded a call for members from IEEE SCC18 to IEEE 802.3.
Two IEEE 802.3 members responded, Joel Goergen and Bill Szeto, both long time IEEE 802.3 members and participants. Further, Joel has been a master electrician and Bill a licensed electrical inspector for the state of Ohio, and an emergency electrical inspector for Richland County, Ohio. This will be a great help as many members of the NFPA code panels have similar backgrounds, and I therefore don't think we could come up with two better qualified candidates.
Such nominations require, among other items, a letter from the chair of the sponsoring IEEE Technical Committee, I've confirmed that this is IEEE 802 in this case, and sponsoring IEEE Working Group. Before providing such a letter I wanted a voted of the IEEE 802.3 Working Group, which we took at the IEEE 802.3 September Interim meeting. That motion passed Y: 46, N: 0, A: 0. Correspondingly, Paul would like a vote of the IEEE 802 Executive Committee before he provides a letter.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Best regards,
David
