1 Scope
This part of IEC 60364
specifies requirements and recommendations for the safe and proper functioning of
prosumers' electrical installations.
It is intended for use by contractors, users, facility managers and similar of electrical
low-voltage installations.
This document also provides requirements and recommendations on technical parameters
and their limiting values influencing:
-
a) safety:
-
b) proper functioning:
-
– stability (voltage, frequency, etc);
-
– reliability (power quality, interoperability of communication, etc);
-
– energy management (power, power factor, current, stored energy, etc);
-
– ability to ensure correct operation of equipment.
This document also provides requirements and recommendations on data exchange models,
and test procedures for the prosumer’s electrical installations that could include the following applications:
-
– local generating sources (e.g. photovoltaic systems, rotating generators, wind turbines);
-
– energy storage units (e.g. stationary secondary batteries);
-
– electric vehicle charging and/or discharging;
-
–
prosumer’s energy measurement unit (PEMU);
-
– control and monitoring system;
-
– loads which can be controlled.
This part of IEC 60364
is intended to be applied in conjunction with the other parts of IEC 60364.
