Шаблон:Lang (DIN; in English, the German Institute for Standardisation) is the German national organization for standardization and is the German ISO member body. DIN is a German Registered Association (e.V.) headquartered in Berlin. There are currently around thirty thousand DIN Standards, covering nearly every field of technology.

History

Founded in 1917 as the Шаблон:Lang (NADI, "Standardisation Committee of German Industry"), the NADI was renamed Шаблон:Lang (DNA, "German Standardisation Committee") in 1926 to reflect that the organization now dealt with standardization issues in many fields; viz., not just for industrial products. In 1975 it was renamed again to Шаблон:Lang, or 'DIN' and is recognised by the German government as the official national-standards body, representing German interests at the international and European levels.

The acronym, 'DIN' is often incorrectly expanded as Шаблон:Lang ("German Industry Standard"). This is largely due to the historic origin of the DIN as "NADI". The NADI indeed published their standards as Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lang). For example, the first published standard was 'Шаблон:Lang' (about tapered pins) in 1918. Many people still mistakenly associate DIN with the old Шаблон:Lang naming convention.

One of the earliest, and probably the best known, is DIN 476 — the standard that introduced the A-series paper sizes in 1922 — adopted in 1975 as International Standard ISO 216. Common examples in modern technology include DIN and mini-DIN connectors for electronics, and the DIN rail.

DIN SPEC 3105, published in 2020, is "the first German standard to be published under an open license (CC-BY-SA 4.0) [...] to implement an open standardisation process".

DIN standard designation

The designation of a DIN standard shows its origin (# denotes a number):

• DIN # is used for German standards with primarily domestic significance or designed as a first step toward international status. E DIN # is a draft standard and DIN V # is a preliminary standard.
• DIN EN # is used for the German edition of European standards.
• DIN ISO # is used for the German edition of ISO standards.
• DIN EN ISO # is used if the standard has also been adopted as a European standard.

Examples of DIN standards

• DIN 476: international paper sizes (now ISO 216 or DIN EN ISO 216)
• DIN 1451: typeface used by German railways and on traffic signs
• DIN 31635: transliteration of the Arabic language
• DIN 41612: mechanical standard for backplane electrical connection
• DIN 72552: electric terminal numbers in automobiles
