What's wrong with IEC 61508?

Published in 2010, the second edition of key international Functional Safety standard IEC 61508 is now entering the maintenance cycle that will produce the third edition.  As the committee starts to gather comments to feed into the update, what do you think needs to be improved in the standard, and what should stay the same?
  • A quick reminder: if you have thoughts on how IEC 61508 can be improved, and want to feed them to the standard's maintenance team via the IET, please pass us your suggestion by the 20th January. See our blog post for how to comment on IEC 61508.
