    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Harmonization Document specifies the requirements for the selection and erection of electrical equipments for protection, isolation, switching and control (hereafter referred to as electrical devices and assemblies) with respect to co-ordination. This Harmonization Document applies to electrical installations as detailed in HD 60364-1:2008, 11.1. The requirements of this document are additional to those specified in HD 60364. This Harmonization Document is intended to provide requirements for the safety of humans, livestock and property against danger and damage which may arise in the reasonable use of electrical installations and to specify requirements for the proper functioning of those installations. The requirements also cover aspects of continuity of supply of the installation. This part covers co-ordination in the case of a fault condition (e.g. short circuit, overload, residual currents) and also takes into consideration aspects of HD 60364-1:2008, 33.1 relevant to the co-ordination of electrical devices as follows : –overcurrent protective device (OCPD); –control and protective switching device (CPS); –residual current device (RCD); –contactor and starter; –switch and disconnector. NOTE 1Co-ordination of monitoring devices is under consideration. NOTE 2 Reference to the meaning of the acronyms used in this document may be found in Table 57.1. This Harmonization Document does not provide requirements for the selection of an electrical device alone, but provides requirements for the selection of electrical devices to ensure electrical co-ordination between them.
