IEC 61439-7:2018

Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear assemblies - Part 7: Assemblies for specific applications such as marinas, camping sites, market squares, electric vehicle charging stations

IEC 61439-7:2018 defines the specific requirements of assemblies as follows:
- assemblies for which the rated voltage does not exceed 1 000 V in the case of AC or 1 500 V in the case of DC;
– assemblies intended for use in connection with the generation, transmission, distribution and conversion of electric energy, and for the control of electric energy consuming equipment;
– assemblies operated by ordinary persons (e.g. plug and unplug of electrical equipment);
– assemblies intended to be installed and used in market squares, marinas, campsites and other similar outdoor public sites;
– assemblies intended for charging stations for electric vehicles (AEVCS) for Mode 3 and Mode 4. They are designed to integrate the functionality and additional requirements for electric vehicle conductive charging systems according to IEC 61851-1:2017.
This first edition cancels and replaces the relevant technical specification published in 2014. It constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous technical specification:
a new classification of the stationary ASSEMBLIES in accordance with their mechanical resistance (5.702);
a new Table 702 with the list of tests and relevant severities to which the ASSEMBLIES have to be subjected according to the classification mentioned at point a);
a new Annex (CC) with a new endurance test for the individual switching devices intended to be used in AEVSC, if they have not already been tested against this requirement;
a general editorial review and a technical revision.  The contents of the corrigendum of August 2019 have been included in this copy.

Ensembles d'appareillage à basse tension – Partie 7: Ensembles pour installations publiques particulières telles que les marinas, les terrains de camping, les marchés et les emplacements analogues et pour bornes de charge de véhicules électriques

L'IEC 61439-7:2018 définit les exigences spécifiques applicables aux ensembles comme suit:
– ensembles dont la tension assignée ne dépasse pas 1 000 V en courant alternatif ou 1 500 V en courant continu;
– ensembles destinés à être utilisés avec des équipements conçus pour la production, le transport, la distribution et la conversion de l'énergie électrique et la commande des matériels consommant de l'énergie électrique;
– ensembles actionnés par des personnes ordinaires (par exemple, brancher ou débrancher du matériel électrique);
– ensembles destinés à être installés et utilisés dans les marchés, marinas, terrains de camping et autres lieux publics extérieurs analogues;
– ensembles destinés aux bornes de charge de véhicules électriques (AEVCS) de Mode 3 et de Mode 4. Ils sont conçus pour intégrer la fonctionnalité et les exigences supplémentaires des systèmes de charge conductive pour véhicules électriques conformément à l’IEC 61851-1:2017.
Cette première édition annule et remplace la spécification technique particulière parue en 2014. Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à la spécification technique précédente:
une nouvelle classification des fixes en fonction de leur résistance mécanique (5.702);
un nouveau Tableau 702 avec la liste des essais et des sévérités correspondantes auxquels les doivent être soumis selon la classification indiquée en a);
une nouvelle Annexe (CC) avec un nouvel essai d’endurance pour les appareils de connexion individuels destinés à être utilisés dans un AEVSC, s’ils n’ont pas déjà été soumis à l’essai conformément à cette exigence;
une revue rédactionnelle générale et une révision technique.  Le contendu du corrigendum d'août 2019 a été pris en considération dans cet exemplaire.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as "IEC
Publication(s)"). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of t
