The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) recently presented its Thomas Edison Award to six experts who have made outstanding contributions to the IEC, including Huang Wenxiu and Xu Jianping from China.
Huang Wenxiu is the Chair of IEC/SC 59L on small household appliances, and Xu Jianping is an international peer reviewer of the IECEx System. Prior to this, they have both won the IEC 1906 Award twice, making great contribution to the construction of the international standards systems and the international mutual recognition of the conformity assessment systems in the IEC.
Created in 2010, the Thomas Edison Award, the highest award on technical management in the IEC, recognizes exceptional achievement, dedicated service and significant contributions to the IEC by officers in IEC technical committees and subcommittees as well as officers of the conformity assessment systems.
