717.313 Supplies
The following methods can be used to supply a unit:
a) connection to a low voltage generating set in accordance with IEC 60364-5-551 (see
Figures 717A.1 and 717A.2), or
b) connection to a fixed electrical installation in which the protective measures are effective
(see Figures 717B.1 and 717B.2), or
c) connection through means providing simple separation, in accordance with EN 61140, from
a fixed electrical installation (see Figures 717C.1, 717C.2 and 717C.3), or

(see example in Figure 717D).
NOTE 1  In cases a), b) and c), an earth electrode may be provided.
NOTE 2  In the case of Figure 717C.1, an earth electrode may be necessary for protective purposes (see
717.413.1.5.3).
NOTE 3  Simple separation using a TN system or electrical separation is appropriate, for example when
information technology or other high leakage current equipment is used in the unit, or when reduction of
electromagnetic influence is necessary.
A unit may be supplied by any method in accordance with a), b), c), or d), or by the method a)
combined with one of the other methods.
The sources, means of connection or separation may be within the unit.
Where in the cases of supplies a) Figure 717A.2 and b) Figures 717B.1 and 717B.2 the mobile
or transportable unit is connected via a polarised plug and socket connection, overcurrent
protective devices shall be installed in the live conductors at the origin of the unit.

operating current not exceeding 30 mA is necessary for all socket-outlets intended to supply
current-using equipment outside the unit, with the exception of socket-outlets which are
supplied from circuits with protection by
– SELV, or
– PELV, or
– electrical separation.
717.413 Protection against indirect contact
717.413.1 Protection by automatic disconnection of supply
a) For supply in accordance with 717.313 a), only TN and IT systems are permitted and

automatic disconnection of the supply shall be provided by a residual current protective
device, with a rated residual current not exceeding 30 mA. This is not required for circuits
inside units having a non-conductive enclosure where protection by earth-free local
equipotential bonding is applied (see Figure 717B.2).
A label shall be fixed in proximity of socket-outlets supplying equipment within the unit
stating that the socket-outlets shall not be used to supply equipment outside the unit.
c) In all cases a) to d) of 717.313, any equipment installed between the source of supply and
the protective devices providing the automatic disconnection of the supply within the unit,
including these protective devices themselves, shall be protected by use of Class II
equipment or by equivalent insulation.
717.413.1.2 Equipotential bonding
717.413.1.2.1 Main equipotential bonding
Accessible conductive parts of the unit, such as chassis, body structure or tube systems, shall
be interconnected and, through the main equipotential bonding conductors, connected to the
protective conductor of the TT, IT or TN systems within the unit.
The main equipotential bonding conductor shall be finely stranded. Type 227 IEC 02 in
accordance with IEC 60227-3 is appropriate.
717.413.1.3 TN system
717.413.1.3.1 In the case of use of the TN system in units with a conductive enclosure and
supplied according to 717.313 a) or c), this enclosure shall be connected to the neutral point
or, if not available, a phase conductor (see Figures 717A.1, 717A.2 and 717C.3).
In the case of use of the TN system in a unit without a conductive enclosure, the exposed
conductive parts of the equipment inside the unit shall be connected by means of a protective
conductor to the neutral point or, if not available, to a live conductor.
717.413.1.5 IT system
717.413.1.5.3 In the case of use of the IT system in units with a conductive enclosure, a
connection of the exposed conductive parts of the equipment to the conductive enclosure is
necessary.
In the case of units without a conductive enclosure, the exposed conductive parts inside shall
be connected to one another and to a protective conductor.
An IT system can be provided by
a) an isolating transformer or a low voltage generating set in accordance with EN 61557-8,
with an insulation monitoring device installed,
b) a transformer providing simple separation, e.g. in accordance with EN 61558-1, only in the
following cases:
– an insulation monitoring device is installed with or without an earth electrode, providing
automatic disconnection of the supply in case of a first fault between live parts and the
frame of the unit (see Figure 717C.2); or
– a residual current device and an earth electrode are installed to provide automatic
disconnection in the case of failure in the transformer providing the simple separation
(see Figure 717C.1). Each circuit provided for the supply of equipment for use outside
the unit shall be protected by a separate residual current protective device with rated
residual current not exceeding 30 mA.
