    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Applies to type-tested assemblies (TTA) intended for use on construction sites, i.e. temporary places of work to which the public do not generally have access and where building construction, installation, repairs, alterations or demolition of property (buildings) or civil engineering (public works) or excavations or where any other similar operations are carried out. These assemblies may be transportable (semi-fixed) or mobile. This Standard is technically equivalent to and reproduced from IEC 439-4:1990.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Replace the last three paragraphs by the following:This standard applies to type-tested assemblies (TTA) intended for use on construction sites, i.e. temporary places of work to which the public do not generally have access and where building construction, installation, repairs, alteration or demolition of property (buildings) or civil engineering (public works) or excavation or any other similar operations are carried out. These assemblies may be transportable (semi-fixed) or mobile.This standard does not apply to assemblies for use in the administrative centres of construction sites (offices, cloakrooms, assembly rooms, canteens, restaurants, dormitories, toilets, etc.).NOTE - As regards the transformers incorporated in an ACS, it should be noted that both the nominal primary voltage and the nominal secondary voltage must be within the limits specified in IEC 439-1 for this standard to be applicable.
