Industrial communication networks - Installation of communication networks in industrial premises

IEC 61918:2010(E) specifies basic requirements for the installation of media for communication networks in industrial premises and within and between the automation islands, of industrial sites. This standard covers balanced and optical fibre cabling. It also covers the cabling infrastructure for wireless media, but not the wireless media itself. Additional media are covered in the IEC 61784-5 series. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2007 and Corrigendum 1 (2009). It constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - 4.4.7.2.1 is updated; - 4.4.7.3.4 is updated; - 5.7.4.3 is updated as result of the revision of the installation profiles; - 6.2.3.1 is updated; - Figure 2, Figure 15, Table 14 and Table B.3 are updated; - a new Figure 35 is added; - a new Table 10 is added; - Annex D is extended to cover additional communication profile families; - Annex F is extended to cover conductor sizes in electrical cables; - Annex H is made normative; - some common requirements are extended as result of the revision of the installation profiles. This publication is to be read in conjunction with the IEC 61784 series and ISO/IEC/TR 14763-2:2000.

This draft European Standard is submitted to CENELEC members for CENELEC enquiry.
Deadline for CENELEC: 2010-03-19.

The text of this draft consists of the text of IEC 61918:200X(65C/537/CDV) with common modifications prepared
by CLC/TC 65CX.

If this draft becomes a European Standard, 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.

This draft European Standard was established by CENELEC 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 Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.

CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, the
Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,

8 CLC/TC 65CX note:
9 According to CLC/TC65CX/SEC/126/REP IEC 61918, Ed. 2, was exempted from CENELEC
10 parallel vote procedure.
11
12 Reason for this exception are references to other standards, which differ on IEC- and on
13 CENELEC-level (see TC65CX -Resolution No. 97):
14 On IEC-level this standard refers to ISO/IEC 14763-2 (standard for the installation of the generic
15 cabling in non-industrial premises).
16 On European level future EN 61918 has to refer to corresponding European Standards of
17 EN 50174-series (see CLC/TC65CX/SEC/117/REP).
18
19 In order to ensure proper references the following common modifications shall be integrated; these
20 have been prepared with the help of the Convenor of IEC/SC 65C, JWG 10, and coordinated with
21 CLC/TC 215.
