This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2005-04-01. 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 Central Secretariat 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 Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.
CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland and United Kingdom.

Foreword
The text of documents 100/847A/FDIS + 100/847B/FDIS, future edition 2 of IEC 60728-11, prepared
by Technical Area 5: Cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services, of
IEC TC 100, Audio, video and multimedia systems and equipment, was submitted to the
IEC-CENELEC parallel vote.
Together with a common modification, prepared by the Technical Committee CENELEC TC 209, Cable
networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services, it was approved by CENELEC as
EN 60728-11 on 2005-04-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 50083-1:1993 + A1:1997 + A2:1997 + corrigenda Jul. 2000.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2006-01-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2008-04-01
Annexes ZA, ZB and ZC have been added by CENELEC.

Annex B
B.1 Justification
Replace by:
B.1 Introduction
A.C. power distribution systems using IT-network technology are equipped with a line-to-line voltage of
230 V (see Figure B.1). Such IT-networks have no N-conductor, and the a.c. mains power is supplied
to the equipment from two of the three line conductors (EN 60950-1, Annex V).
For a cable network covering an area with this type of IT power supply network, special initiative
should be taken to ensure that the safety in the cable network is maintained. The following
equipotential bonding arrangements described will provide necessary safety in such a network.
NOTE See also Annex ZA.

Add the following annexes:
Annex ZA
(normative)
Special national conditions
Special national condition: National characteristic or practice that cannot be changed even over a
long period, e.g. climatic conditions, electrical earthing conditions.
NOTE If it affects harmonization, it forms part of the European Standard.
For the countries in which the relevant special national conditions apply these provisions are
normative, for other countries they are informative.
Clause Special national condition
6 Norway
In most parts of Norway the AC power distribution systems are built as IT networks with a
line-to-line voltage of 230 V. In these cases the equipotential bonding within a cable
network has to be performed according to Annex B of this standard.
In parts of Norway where the power distribution systems are built as TN-networks, these
special national conditions can be disregarded and the equipotential bonding shall be
performed according to Clause 6 of this standard.
11.2.2 Finland
As the conductivity of earth in Finland is lower than what is normal in many other
countries, the earthing electrodes in 11.2.2 should be as shown in Figures 16 a), 16 b) or
16 c).
12.3 Finland
The required wind pressure value is 700 N/m for buildings up to 30 m.

Annex ZB
(informative)
A-deviations
A-deviation: National deviation due to regulations, the alteration of which is for the time being outside
the competence of the CENELEC national member.
This European Standard falls under Directive 73/23/EEC.
NOTE (from CEN/CENELEC IR Part 2:2002 , 2.17) Where standards fall under EC Directives, it is the view of the Commission
of the European Communities (OJ No C 59, 1982-03-09) that the effect of the decision of the Court of Justice in case 815/79
Cremonini/Vrankovich (European Court Reports 1980, p. 3583) is that compliance with A-deviations is no longer mandatory and
that the free movement of products complying with such a standard should not be restricted except under the safeguard
procedure provided for in the relevant Directive.
A-deviations in an EFTA-country are valid instead of the relevant provisions of the European Standard
in that country until they have been removed.
Clause Deviation
9 France
(Arrêté interministériel, 2 April 1991)
This regulation specifies, among many other parameters, the minimum distance between
electric supply wires (isolated and not isolated, low-voltage and high-voltage) and any
other installation (e.g. buildings, antennas, telecommunication lines, etc.).
The main clauses of this regulation which concern the cable networks are Clauses 12, 25,
26, 33, 33bis, 38, 49, 51, 52 and 63.
Clause 9 of this standard specifies distances of 10 mm (indoors) and 20 mm (outdoors)
and this is not sufficient to cover overhead cables. As an example, the minimum distance
between an overhead telecommunication line and an overhead low-voltage (up to 1 kV)
electricity supply line shall be 1 m (Clause 33). This distance may be reduced under
specified conditions (Clauses 51, 52 and 63).
This regulation specifies also the minimum distance from high-voltage lines. This distance
varies from 1 m to 4 m depending on the voltage, on the isolation of the cable and on the
location (built-up area or not) (Clauses 33 and 63)
11 France
(NF C 15100 - Décret n° 84-74 du 26 janvier 1984 modifié)
The use of TT distribution systems with 300 mA differential switching is not compatible
with the interconnection of the earthing of two different buildings.
