551 Low-voltage generating sets
Replace the existing text of Clause 551 by the following new text:
551.1 Scope
This clause provides requirements for the selection and erection of low-voltage and extra-low
voltage generating sets intended to supply, either continuously or occasionally, all or part of
the installation. Requirements are also included for installations with the following supply
arrangements:
– supply to an installation which is not connected to a system for distribution of electricity to
the public;
– supply to an installation as an alternative to a system for distribution of electricity to the
public;
– supply to an installation in parallel with a system for distribution of electricity to the public
supply;

SIST IEC 60364-5-55:2006/A2:2009
– 4 – 60364-5-55 Amend. 2 © IEC:2008
– appropriate combinations of the above.
This part does not apply to self-contained items of extra-low voltage electrical equipment
which incorporate both the source of energy and the energy-using load and for which a
specific product standard exists that includes the requirements for electrical safety.
NOTE Requirements of the electricity distributor should be ascertained before a generating set is installed in an
installation that is connected to a system for distribution of electricity to the public.
551.1.1 Generating sets with the following power sources are considered:
– combustion engines;
– turbines;
– electric motors;
– photovoltaic cells (IEC 60364-7-712 also applies);
– electrochemical accumulators;
– other suitable sources.
551.1.2 Generating sets with the following electrical characteristics are considered:
– mains-excited and separately excited synchronous generators;
– mains-excited and self-excited asynchronous generators;
– mains-commutated and self-commutated static converters with or without by-pass
facilities;
– generating sets with other suitable electrical characteristics.
551.1.3 The use of generating sets for the following purposes is considered:
– supply to permanent installations;
– supply to temporary installations;
– supply to portable equipment which is not connected to a permanent installation;
– supply to mobile units (IEC 60364-7-717 also applies).
551.2 General requirements
551.2.1 The means of excitation and commutation shall be appropriate for the intended use
of the generating set and the safety and proper functioning of other sources of supply shall
not be impaired by the generating set.
NOTE See 551.7 for particular requirements where the generating set may operate in parallel with a system for
the distribution of electricity to the public.
551.2.2 The prospective short-circuit current and prospective earth fault current shall be
assessed for each source of supply or combination of sources which can operate
independently of other sources or combinations. The short-circuit breaking capacity of
protective devices within the installation and, where appropriate, connected to a system for
distribution of electricity to the public, shall not be exceeded for any of the intended methods
of operation of the sources.
NOTE Attention should be given to the power factor specified for protective devices in the installation.
551.2.3 The capacity and operating characteristics of the generating set shall be such that
danger or damage to equipment does not arise after the connection or disconnection of any
intended load as a result of the deviation of the voltage or frequency from the intended
operating range. Means shall be provided to automatically disconnect such parts of the
installation as may be necessary if the capacity of the generating set is exceeded.

NOTE 1 Attention should be given to the size of individual loads as a proportion of the capacity of the generating
set and to motor starting currents.
NOTE 2 Attention should be given to the power factor specified for protective devices in the installation.
NOTE 3 The installation of a generating set within an existing building or installation may change the conditions
of external influence for the installation (see IEC 60364-1), for example by the introduction of moving parts, parts
at high temperature or by the presence of inflammable fluids and noxious gases, etc.
551.2.4 Provision for isolation shall meet the requirements of Clause 537 for each source or
combination of sources of supply.
551.3 Protective measure: extra-low-voltage provided by SELV and PELV
551.3.1 Additional requirements for SELV and PELV where the installation
is supplied from more than one source
Where a SELV or PELV system may be supplied by more than one source, the requirements
of 414.3 of IEC 60364-4-41 shall apply to each source. Where one or more of the sources is
earthed, the requirements for PELV systems in 414.4 of IEC 60364-4-41 shall apply.
If one or more of the sources does not meet the requirements of 414.3, the system shall be
treated as a FELV system and the requirements of 411.7 of IEC 60364-4-41 shall apply.
551.3.2 Additional requirements where it is necessary to maintain the supply to an extra-low
voltage system
Where it is necessary to maintain the supply to an extra-low voltage system following the loss
of one or more sources of supply, each source of supply or combination of sources of supply
which can operate independently of other sources or combinations shall be capable of
supplying the intended load of the extra-low voltage system. Provisions shall be made so that
the loss of low-voltage supply to an extra-low voltage source does not lead to danger or
damage to other extra-low voltage equipment.
NOTE Such precautions may be necessary in supplies for safety services (see Clause 35 of IEC 60364-1).
551.4 Fault protection (protection against indirect contact)
551.4.1 Fault protection shall be provided for the installation in respect of each source of
supply or combination of sources of supply that can operate independently of other sources or
combinations of sources.
The fault protective provisions shall be selected or precautions shall be taken to ensure that
where fault protective provisions are achieved in different ways within the same installation or
part of an installation according to the active sources of supply, no influence shall occur or
conditions arise that could impair the effectiveness of the fault protective provisions.
NOTE This might, for example, require the use of a transformer providing electrical separation between parts of
the installation using different earthing systems.
551.4.2 The generating set shall be connected so that any provision within the installation
for protection by residual current devices in accordance with IEC 60364-4-41 remains
effective for every intended combination of sources of supply.
NOTE Connection of live parts of the generator with earth may affect the protective measures.
551.4.3 Protection by automatic disconnection of supply
