This document specifies the requirements for the design, construction and installation of the following
types of DC and AC electrical systems, installed on small craft either individually or in combination:
a) extra-low-voltage direct current (DC) electrical systems that operate at nominal potentials of
50 V DC or less;
b) single-phase alternating current (AC) systems that operate at a nominal voltage not exceeding
AC 250 V.
This document does not cover the following:
— electrical propulsion systems of direct current less than 1 500 V DC, single-phase alternating
current up to 1 000 V AC, and three-phase alternating current up to 1 000 V AC, which are addressed
by ISO 16315;
— any conductor that is part of an outboard engine assembly and that does not extend beyond the
outboard engine manufacturers supplied cowling;

addressed by IEC 60092-507.

This document defines the dimensions, design local pressures, mechanical properties and design
stresses for the scantlings determination of monohull small craft with a hull length (LH) or a load line
length (see NOTE 1) of up to 24 m. It considers all parts of the craft that are assumed to be watertight or
weathertight when assessing stability, freeboard and buoyancy in accordance with ISO 12217.
NOTE 1 The load line length is defined in the IMO "International Load Lines Convention 1966/2005", it
can be larger than LH for craft with overhangs. This length also sets up at 24 m the lower limit of several IMO
conventions.
The main core of this document determines the local design pressures and stresses for monohulls and
details the possible scantlings methods derived from these pressures and stresses, both for monohulls
and multihulls (see NOTE 2). The assessment process requires, where relevant, the application of
Annexes.
This document is applicable to small craft, in intact condition, of the two following types:
— recreational craft, including recreational charter vessels;
— small commercial craft and workboats, see Clause 12 and Annex J.
It is not applicable to racing craft designed only for professional racing.
NOTE 2 Local pressures and stresses for multihulls are given in ISO 12215-7.
This document is applicable to the structures supporting windows, portlights, hatches, deadlights,
and doors.
For the complete scantlings of the craft, this document is intended to be used with ISO 12215-8 for
rudders, ISO 12215-9 for appendages and ISO 12215-10 for rig loads and rig attachments.
This document covers small craft built from the following materials:
— fibre-reinforced plastics, either in single skin or sandwich construction;

Throughout this document, unless otherwise specified, dimensions are in (m), areas in (m2), masses
in (kg), forces in (N), moments in (N.m), pressures in kN/m2 (1 kN/m2 = 1 kPa), stresses and elastic
modulus in N/mm2 (1 N/mm2 = 1 Mpa). Max(a;b;c) means that the required value is the maximum of a,
b, and c; and min(d;e;f) means that the required value is the minimum of d, e, and f.
