IEC TS 62257-6:2015(E) describes the various rules to be applied for acceptance, operation, maintenance and replacement of decentralized rural electrification systems which are designed to supply electric power for sites which are not connected to a large interconnected system, or a national grid, in order to meet basic needs. This technical specification proposes a methodology to achieve the best technical and economic conditions for acceptance, operation, maintenance and replacement of equipment and complete system life cycle.
IEC TS 62257-7:2017 specifies the general requirements for the generators in decentralized rural electrification systems. This document is a general introduction followed by more specific documents dedicated to the generation technologies which are the most currently used in rural electrification projects.
IEC TS 62257-9-4:2016(E) specifies the general requirements for the design and the implementation of a user's installation. It applies to single phase user's electrical installations with maximum power of 500 VA, in decentralized rural electrification systems. It is applicable to installations supplied by an AC microgrid and to installations encompassing their own single-unit AC micropower plant or DC micropower plant.
