Today, qualitatively new levels are required in the design and manufacture of components in control, synchronization, and power equipment and in engineering systems. In particular, new electrical steel and precision alloys are required for the manufacture of special equipment; that calls for the development of the corresponding standards. Proposals for the improvement of standards regarding products based on electrical steel and precision alloys are offered, with a view to more rapid revision of Russian standards for metal products and implementation of the federal program for import substitution and innovation in strategic economic sectors (the defense industry, the aerospace industry, instrument design, medicine, transportation, the petrochemical industry, and the power industry).
