Electric room heating, underfloor heating, characteristics of performance - Definitions, method of testing, sizing and formula symbols

This European Standard applies to electrical underfloor heating of dwellings and all other buildings whose use corresponds to dwellings or is at least similar, having a maximum load bearing in use of 4 kN/m². This European Standard defines the main characteristics of electrical underfloor heating and establishes the method of testing of these characteristics as information for the user. This European Standard does not deal with: - installation and safety requirements; DIN VDE 0100-723.

Električno ogrevanje prostorov, talno ogrevanje, značilne lastnosti - Definicije, metode preskušanja, dimenzioniranje in simboli formul

Ta evropski standard velja za električno talno ogrevanje stanovanj in vseh ostalih stavb, ki ustrezajo stanovanjem ali so jim vsaj podobne ter imajo največjo nosilnost 4 kN/m². Ta evropski standard določa značilnosti električnega talnega ogrevanja in uvaja preskusno metodo za te značilnosti, ki služi kot informacija za uporabnika. Ta evropski standard ne obravnava:
– namestitev in varnostnih zahtev;
– DIN VDE 0100-723.

This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2012-12-24. CENELEC members are bound to comply
with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard the
status of a national standard without any alteration.

Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on application
to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre or to any CENELEC member.

This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and notified
to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre has the same status as the official versions.

CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus,
the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany,
Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland,
