Electrical installations — Connectable electrical installations and supply arrangements, Part 2: Connectable electrical installations
Standard specifies requirements for electrical installations associated with connectable electrical installation s used for the purposes of accommodation, habitation or other residential, commercial purposes or recreational uses that are intended for connection to external low voltage a.c. supply systems (i.e. 50 V a.c. to 1000 V a.c.) by either a detachable supply lead or a supply lead directly connected to the connectable electrical installation. Includes requirements and provides guidance for the installation of extra‐low voltage systems (i.e. less than 50 V a.c. or 120 V d.c. ripple free).
