Standards

This International Standard specifies the minimum requirements for the design qualification and type approval of concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) modules and assemblies suitable for long-term operation in general open-air climates as defined in IEC 60721-2-1. The test sequence is partially based on that specified in IEC 61215-1 for the design qualification and type approval of flat-plate terrestrial crystalline silicon PV modules. However, some changes have been made to account for the special features of CPV receivers and modules, particularly with regard to the separation of on-site and in-lab tests, effects of tracking alignment, high current density, and rapid temperature changes, which have resulted in the formulation of some new test procedures or new requirements.

1.1 These requirements cover aluminum (ERMC-A) and stainless steel (ERMC-SS) electrical rigid metal conduit, nipples, elbows, and couplings in 12 – 155 (3/8 – 6) trade sizes for use as metal raceway for the installation of wires and cables in accordance with CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, NOM- 001-SEDE, Standard for Electrical Installations, and NFPA 70, National Electrical Code (see Reference Item No. 1, Annex A). It is the user’s responsibility to determine the appropriate product for the application.

1.1    These requirements cover the installation of lightning protection systems on all types of structures other than structures used for the production, handling, or storage of ammunition, explosives, flammable liquids or gases, and other explosive ingredients including dust.

1.2    These requirements apply to lightning protection systems that are complete and cover all parts of a structure. Partial systems are not covered by this standard.

 
1.4    Adjacent structures shall be considered separate structures.

1.5    Adjacent structures with lightning protection shall be considered part of the structure if the adjacent structure’s lightning protection system complies with this standard and is connected to the lightning protection system of the structure in accordance with Section 10.4.

1.7    Free standing Walkways shall be considered an adjacent structure under the following conditions:

     a)  It is separated by a fire wall and conductive media that is shared by both facilities has an SPD in accordance with Section 13.

1.8      This standard does not cover lightning protection for:

       a)  Electric transmission lines or open air distribution racks,

       b)  Outdoor substations or switch yards, and

       c)  Electric generators unenclosed by a building other enclosed structure.

1.9    Enclosed generators and conventional building structures at or associated with generators or power plants, etc. are covered.

1.1    These requirements cover industrial control panels intended for general industrial use, operating from a voltage of 1000 volts or less. This equipment is intended for installation in ordinary locations, in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, where the ambient temperature does not exceed 40°C (104°F) maximum.

This International Standard specifies requirements for metallic, non-metallic and composite cable ties and their associated fixing devices used for the management and support of wiring systems in electrical installations.

Cable ties and associated fixing devices may also be suitable for other applications and where so used, regard should be taken of any additional requirements.

This standard does not contain requirements that evaluate any electrical insulation properties of the cable tie or mechanical protection of the cables provided by the cable tie.

This standard does not consider the mechanical interface of a fixing device to a solid surface such as a wall or ceiling.

This British Standard specifies requirements for sheets of factory-made machine-welded steel fabric for the reinforcement of concrete, manufactured from ribbed bars conforming to BS 4449:2005, or manufactured from wire conforming to BS 4482 for wrapping fabrics D49 and D98.

NOTE 1 Where the term “bar” is used in this standard, it includes bar or recoiled product conforming to BS 4449:2005. For clarity only. It can also include wire conforming to BS 4482 for wrapping fabrics only.

This part of the IEC 61970 series provides a set guidelines and general infrastructure capabilities required for the application of the EMS -API interface standards . This part of the IEC 61760 series describes typical integration scenarios where these standard are to be applied and the of types of application to be integrated . A reference model is defined to provide a framework for the application of the other parts of these EMS- API standard. This reference model is based on a component interfaces for information exchange between applications in a control center environment . While the primary objective of the EMS-API is to support the integration of applications within the control center applications and systems external to the control center environment , such as other control centers, ISOs RTOs and distribution systems, This standard describes the role of the other parts of the standards , including the common information model (CIM) in the IEC 61970-3XX series the component interface specifications (CIS) in the IEC 61970-4XX series and technology mappings in the IEC 61770 - %XX series.

This Technical Report presents an overview and guidance for the IEC 61158 series. It explains the structure and content of IEC 61158, shows how to use it in combination with IEC 61784, and relates the structures to the ISO/IEC 7498 OSI Basic Reference Model.

IEC 61511-2 provides guidance on the specification design , installation operation and maintenance of safety instrumented functions and related safety instrumented system as defined in IEC 61511-1. This standard has been organized so that each clause and sub clause number herein addresses the same number in IEC 61511-1 (with the exception of the annexes).
