Low-voltage electrical installations - Part 7-715: Requirements for special installations or locations - Extra-low-voltage lighting installations

IEC 60364-5-55:2011 The particular requirements apply to extra-low-voltage lighting installations supplied from sources with a maximum rated voltage of 50 V a.c. or 120 V d.c. For the definition of an extra-low voltage lighting system reference should be made to IEC 60598-2-23. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, published in 1999, and constitutes a technical revision. The major technical changes with respect to the previous edition are: - the clause numbering is aligned with the present structure of IEC 60364; - references to LED modules and their particular installation requirements have been introduced; - and requirements for cross-sectional area of conductors are modified.

Installations électriques à basse tension - Partie 7-715: Règles pour les installations et emplacements spéciaux - Installations d'éclairage à très basse tension

La CEI 60364-5-55:2011 Les exigences particulières de la présente partie de la CEI 60364 sont applicables au choix et à la mise en oeuvre des installations d'éclairage à très basse tension alimentées par des sources dont la tension assignée maximale est de 50 V en courant alternatif et de 120 V en courant continu. Pour la définition des systèmes d'éclairage à très basse tension, se reporter à la CEI 60598-2-23. Cette seconde édition annule et remplace la première édition, publiée en 1999 dont elle constitue une révision technique. Les modifications principales par rapport à l'édition précédente sont les suivantes: - la numérotation des articles est alignée sur celle de la CEI 60364; - des références aux modules LED et à leurs exigences particulières d'installation ont été introduites; - les exigences pour la section des conducteurs ont été modifiées.

Nizkonapetostne električne inštalacije – 7-715. del: Zahteve za posebne inštalacije ali lokacije – Inštalacije razsvetljav za malo napetost (IEC 60364-7-715:2011, spremenjen)

Posebne zahteve tega dela standarda IEC 60364 se uporabljajo za izbiro in namestitev
inštalacij razsvetljav za malo napetost z napajanjem iz virov z najvišjo nazivno napetostjo 50 V izmenične napetosti ali 120 V enosmerne napetosti.
OPOMBA 1: Za opredelitev sistema razsvetljave za malo napetost glejte standard IEC 60598-2-23.
OPOMBA 2: Izmenične napetosti so navedene kot efektivne vrednosti.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
