Dear Fellow Engineer,
Can you be more specific in the sense:
1. Why do you need ISA 5.1, and what is your application
2. ISA has throughly revised the Standard. Now it is very descriptive and quite self-explanatory, still what problems have you faced in understanding it.
3. Are your problems related to the graphic part or the textual part?
4. To begin ask a few questions about one or two symbols.
5. What sort of examples do you feel can help you?

The more you are specific, the more forum members will be able to assist you.

Do not worry about your English, as long as you are able to put your message through.

Regards,
Sajid Ali Khan

Thx for your response Sajid

1.- My aplication is in chemical plants, i want to implement ISA 5.1 to replase our old tagging identification.

2.- I felt more comfortable with the (i think) 80s edition with a lot of examples in the standard. Now in the intruduction of 2009 ed. I quote:

(10) The extensive examples in previous versions of this standard that illustrated identification and
symbolization definitions and methods have been removed and will be moved to technical reports that will
be prepared after publication of this revised standard.

Im looking if ISA already published those "technical reports" or other publication with examples.

My doubts and consers are in general in the interpretation of the standard, its harder for me to understand the "standard lenguage" that it is write on.

Are there other publication of ISA that could be of use for me?

Best regards
