Scope

This clause provides requirements for the selection and erection of low-voltage and extra-low voltage generating sets intended to supply, either continuously or occasionally, all or part of the installation. Requirements are also included for installations with the following supply arrangements:– supply to an installation which is not connected to an external system for distribution of electricity;– supply to an installation as an alternative to an external system for distribution of electricity;– supply to an installation in parallel with an external system for distribution of electricity;– appropriate combinations of the above.This part does not apply to self-contained items of extra-low voltage electrical equipment which incorporate both the source of energy and the energy-using load and for which a specific product standard exists that includes the requirements for electrical safety.NOTE For low-voltage generating sets connected to a system for distribution of electricity, additional requirements of the distribution system operator may exist.
