Scope – Clear definition of what is/is not covered by the standard (e.g., power, voltage, other criteria).
1.1 This Standard applies to emergency lighting and power equipment for use in unclassified locations and intended for connection to branch circuits 600 V or less. Intended to supply illumination, power or both automatically to critical areas and equipment in the event of failure of normal supply in accordance with NEC Article 700 or 701, NFPA 70, Life Safety Code, NFPA 101, Fire Code, NFPA 1, International Building Code (IBC) and International Fire Code (IFC).
1.1 These requirements cover fixed and location-dedicated electric room heating equipment rated 600 V or less to be employed in ordinary locations in accordance with the NEC, ANSI/NFPA 70. 1.2 These requirements do not cover movable heaters, wall- or ceiling-hung heaters, baseboard heaters, duct heaters, central-heating furnaces, fan-coil units, panel- or cable-type radiant-heating equipment, electric boilers, or any other electric heating equipment or appliances covered in or as a part of separate, individual requirements.
These requirements cover ESS that are intended to store energy from power or other sources and provide electrical or other types of energy to loads or power conversion equipment. The ESS may include equipment for charging, discharging, control, protection, communication, controlling the system environment, fuel or other fluid movement and containment, etc. The system may contain other ancillary equipment related to the functioning of the energy storage system.
Abstract: Sets out recommended practices for the installation, maintenance, testing and replacement of vented secondary batteries permanently installed in buildings.
Scope:
This Standard sets out recommended practices for the installation, maintenance, testing and replacement of vented secondary batteries permanently installed in or on buildings. It also provides guidance to determine when batteries should be replaced.
The standard sets out requirements for the design, construction and verification of electrical installations, including the selection and installation of electrical equipment forming part of such electrical installations. These requirements are intended to protect persons, livestock, and property from electric shock, fire and physical injury hazards that may arise from an electrical installation that is used with reasonable care and with due regard to the intended purpose of the electrical installation.
Specifies requirements for the installation of sealed secondary batteries permanently installed in buildings.
This Standard specifies the electrical installation requirements for inverter energy systems and grid protection devices with ratings up to 10 kVA for single-phase units, or up to 30 kVA for three-phase units, for the injection of electric power through an electrical installation to the electricity distribution network. NOTES: 1 Although this Standard does not apply to larger systems, similar principles can be used for the installation of such systems. 2 This Standard does not cover detailed installation requirements for the energy source(s) and its associated wiring.
There are various sub standards (6-1, 6.-2, etc.) that apply to EMC. Information from IEC 61000-6-1 covers EMC immunity requirements for electrical and electronic apparatus intended for use in residential, commercial and light-industrial environments. Immunity requirements in the frequency range 0 Hz to 400 GHz are covered. No tests need to be performed at frequencies where no requirements are specified. This generic EMC immunity standard is applicable if no relevant dedicated product or product-family EMC immunity standard exists.
The Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) of 1986 was created to help communities plan for emergencies involving hazardous substances. EPCRA requires hazardous chemical emergency planning by federal, state and local governments, Indian tribes, and industry. It also requires industry to report on the storage, use and releases of hazardous chemicals to federal, state, and local governments.
