This European Standard applies to the use of electronic equipment (EE) in power installations where a uniform technical level with respect to safety and reliability is necessary. This standard also applies to EE which are not covered by a specific product standard.

This European Standard defines the minimum requirements for the design and manufacture of EE, for protection against electric shock, for testing and its integration into systems for power installations.

This European Standard does not cover the following applications: electrical accessories and electrical appliances for household and similar purposes, medical equipment, electric railway equipment, data processing without control on systems and processes, public and private non-industrial telecommunication and radio communication equipment and networks, protection relays, residual-current-operated protective devices, uninterruptible power supplies, lighting equipment and public charging equipment for electrical vehicles.
