IEC 62792:2015规定了一种测量向人体提供电刺激的电击武器（ESW）电输出、电流和电压的方法。 涉及ESW不同方面的制造商、医学研究人员、政策制定者、用户和其他利益相关方使用各种不同的测量方法、不同的术语和不同的参数来测量和描述ESW的性能。这些差异在利益相关者群体中产生了困惑和误解，这影响了进行准确、可靠和可重复测量比较的能力。通过制定一套公认的术语、性能参数和测试方法，本标准将有助于准确、精确地传达描述ESW电输出、电流和高压的参数。 这种改进的沟通将有助于利益相关者群体共同制定统一的方法，以一致准确地描述ESW输出及其对人体生理的影响，从而使适当的标准化机构能够制定安全使用性能标准/法规。

IEC 62792:2015 specifies a method for measuring the electrical outputs, current and voltage, from electroshock weapons (ESWs) that deliver an electrical stimulus to humans. Manufacturers, medical researchers, policy makers, users, and other interested parties involved with different aspects of ESWs use a variety of different measurement methods, different terminologies, and different parameters to measure and describe the performance of an ESW. These differences generate confusion and misunderstanding within this stakeholder community, and this impacts the ability to perform accurate, reliable, and reproducible measurement comparisons. By developing a generally-accepted terminology, set of performance parameters, and test methods, this standard will facilitate accurate and precise communication for the parameters that describe the electrical output, current and high voltage, of ESWs. This improved communication will aid this stakeholder community in collectively developing uniform methods for describing the ESW output and its effect on human physiology consistently and accurately, thereby enabling the development of safe use performance standards/regulations by the appropriate standardization body.
