Design

ANSI Z535.1 sets forth the technical definitions, color standards, and color tolerances for the ANSI Z535 uniform safety color ANSI Z535.2 regulates requirements for the design, application, and use of safety signs in facilities and in the environment through consistent visual layout.

The guidance covers the key elements to consider when devising safe working practices and is for people who carry out work on or near electrical equipment. It includes advice for managers and supervisors who control or influence the design, specification, selection, installation, commissioning, maintenance or operation of electrical equipment.

Applicable to substation automation systems: defines communication between intelligent electronic devices in substation and system requirements; provides overview of standard series; refers to text and figures from other parts of IEC 61850 series.

The document provides interim guidance for electric and hybrid-electric vehicles and identifies appropriate post-crash safety measures for vehicle owners and the general public, emergency responders, and for towing/recovery operators and vehicle storage facilities.

Covers VRLA batteries, used as a reserve energy source that supports DC-powered telecommunications load equipment. Defines the proper operational use, storage conditions and test criteria initial and lifetime for VRLA cells (modules). Intended to be used to establish initial physical and performance characteristics of VRLA cells or modules, performance expectations throughout their lifetime and operations conditions for appropriate use and guidance for designers of these cells or modules.

The standard specifies marking, tests and requirements for sealed nickel cadmium prismatic secondary single cells.

The standard specifies marking, designation, dimensions, tests and requirements for vented Nickel Cadmium prismatic secondary single cells.

This part of IEC 60896 is applicable to Lead-Acid cells and batteries which are designed for service in fixed locations and which are permanently connected to the load and to the DC power supply. Part 11 of the standard is applicable to vented types only. The object of this standard is to specify general requirements and main characteristics with corresponding test methods associated with all types and construction modes of Lead-Acid stationary batteries, excluding valve-regulated types.

This international standard provides general information about secondary batteries used in PVES and the typical methods of test used for the verification of battery performance. This standard does not include specific information relating to battery sizing, method of charge or PVES design. NOTE: This standard is applicable to Lead-Acid and Nickel Cadmium cells and batteries. This standard will be amended to include other electrochemical systems when they become available.

Specifies marking, designation, dimensions, tests and performance requirements for portable sealed Nickel Cadmium small prismatic, cylindrical and button rechargeable single cells, suitable for use in any orientation.
