Could someone please explain tiered armour sets?

Hello,
Many patch previews show funky pictures of e.g. "Tier 13" armour sets. Could anyone answer a couple of questions about them please? I'm assuming that they are matching pieces that complement each other's stats specifically for a class? Are they only looted within Raids? Is a complete set available in one raid? Or would a player get a complete set from running different raids looking for random rare drops? Cheers.

Cheers for the help, that's much clearer. I'd had two pieces of Raging Elements armour bought with JPs, during Cataclysm but wasn't sure is that was what a tiered set was.

There is some confusion sometimes because many times a ´tier´ includes more than one raid. Like when MoP launched, it included 3 different raids, but they were all part of one tier. A tier just means basically ´all the raids released around the same time´.... but sometimes, like in the upcoming 5.2 patch, an entire tier will consist of only one raid...so you can get all the pieces from that single raid.

I have sometimes seen armor that is of the same item level as a set piece also referred to as being of that Tier although strictly speaking it's more of a Tier equivalent.
