4.1 Nominal voltage
The nominal voltage at interface "A" shall be -48 VDC with positive conductor connected to earth as defined in ETSI
EN 300 253 [1].
NOTE 1: The positive conductor, also called DC return, can be (see ETSI EN 300 253 [1]):
Isolated DC return: this is a DC power system in which the DC power return conductor has a single
point connection to the bonding network. Equipment intended for this power distribution has a
floating DC power at the power input terminal.
Common DC return: this is a DC power system in which the return conductor is connected to the
bonding network at many points. Equipment intended for this power distribution can have the DC
return earthed at the power input terminal.
NOTE 2: In most cases the nominal voltage of interface "A" is based on a 24 cells lead-acid battery. Use of other
technologies, such as Lithium-ion batteries, are increasing and are compatible with the requirements of
the present document
4.2 Normal service voltage range at interface "A"
The normal service voltage range for the -48 VDC nominal supply at interface "A" shall be from -40,5 VDC
to -57,0 VDC.
NOTE 1: The maximum voltage is based on a 0,3 V drop in the distribution loop and a battery voltage of
2,35 V/cell plus 0,5 % for regulation.
There shall be no degradation of service performance when ICT equipment is operating at voltages within the normal
service voltage range including voltage variation inside the normal voltage range.
This requirement shall be verified by applying at interface "A" a voltage step test with specification and parameters
defined in table 1. The testing and measurement techniques are described in EN 61000-4-29 [7].
The test shall apply to equipment with single and multiple power supply "A" interface inputs.

Figure 1: Identification of interface "A"
4.1 Nominal voltage
The nominal voltage at interface "A" shall be -48 VDC with positive conductor connected to earth as defined in ETSI
EN 300 253 [1].
NOTE 1: The positive conductor, also called DC return, can be (see ETSI EN 300 253 [1]):
Isolated DC return: this is a DC power system in which the DC power return conductor has a single
point connection to the bonding network. Equipment intended for this power distribution has a
floating DC power at the power input terminal.
Common DC return: this is a DC power system in which the return conductor is connected to the
bonding network at many points. Equipment intended for this power distribution can have the DC
return earthed at the power input terminal.
NOTE 2: In most cases the nominal voltage of interface "A" is based on a 24 cells lead-acid battery. Use of other
technologies, such as Lithium-ion batteries, are increasing and are compatible with the requirements of
the present document
4.2 Normal service voltage range at interface "A"
The normal service voltage range for the -48 VDC nominal supply at interface "A" shall be from -40,5 VDC
to -57,0 VDC.
NOTE 1: The maximum voltage is based on a 0,3 V drop in the distribution loop and a battery voltage of
2,35 V/cell plus 0,5 % for regulation.
There shall be no degradation of service performance when ICT equipment is operating at voltages within the normal
service voltage range including voltage variation inside the normal voltage range.
This requirement shall be verified by applying at interface "A" a voltage step test with specification and parameters
defined in table 1. The testing and measurement techniques are described in EN 61000-4-29 [7].
The test shall apply to equipment with single and multiple power supply "A" interface inputs.

Figure 1: Identification of interface "A"
4.1 Nominal voltage
The nominal voltage at interface "A" shall be -48 VDC with positive conductor connected to earth as defined in ETSI
EN 300 253 [1].
NOTE 1: The positive conductor, also called DC return, can be (see ETSI EN 300 253 [1]):
Isolated DC return: this is a DC power system in which the DC power return conductor has a single
point connection to the bonding network. Equipment intended for this power distribution has a
floating DC power at the power input terminal.
Common DC return: this is a DC power system in which the return conductor is connected to the
bonding network at many points. Equipment intended for this power distribution can have the DC
return earthed at the power input terminal.
NOTE 2: In most cases the nominal voltage of interface "A" is based on a 24 cells lead-acid battery. Use of other
technologies, such as Lithium-ion batteries, are increasing and are compatible with the requirements of
the present document
4.2 Normal service voltage range at interface "A"
The normal service voltage range for the -48 VDC nominal supply at interface "A" shall be from -40,5 VDC
to -57,0 VDC.
NOTE 1: The maximum voltage is based on a 0,3 V drop in the distribution loop and a battery voltage of
2,35 V/cell plus 0,5 % for regulation.
There shall be no degradation of service performance when ICT equipment is operating at voltages within the normal
service voltage range including voltage variation inside the normal voltage range.
This requirement shall be verified by applying at interface "A" a voltage step test with specification and parameters
defined in table 1. The testing and measurement techniques are described in EN 61000-4-29 [7].
The test shall apply to equipment with single and multiple power supply "A" interface inputs.

In the case of ICT equipment with power supply input redundancy (e.g. Input 1 and Input 2), this test shall be
performed:
• with Inputs 1 and 2 powered simultaneously and applying the test in table 1 on both inputs simultaneously;
• with Inputs 1 and 2 powered simultaneously and applying the test in table 1 on one input (either Input 1 or 2);
• with either Input 1 or 2 powered and no power on the other power input and applying the test in table 1 on the
powered input.
NOTE 2: The minimum voltage is based on the voltage drop in the distribution network and a battery cell end of
discharge voltage.
NOTE 3: The voltages specified are measured at interface "A". It should be noted that if interface "A" is at any
point other than the ICT equipment interface as presented in annex A, there will be a voltage drop
between interface "A" and the equipment terminals.
4.3 Abnormal service voltage range at interface "A"
4.3.1 Abnormal service voltage range under steady state conditions
ICT equipment designed to work at 48 VDC nominal voltage at the interface "A" shall not suffer any damage when
subjected to the following voltage ranges defined in table 2.
Table 2
0,0 V to -40,5 VDC
-57,0 VDC to -60,0 VDC
Following the restoration of the supply to the normal voltage range, the power conversion and management systems on
the load side of interface "A" shall automatically restore normal service. The ICT equipment shall then resume
operation according to its specifications. The abnormal service voltage shall not lead to the disconnection of the power
supply e.g. by causing circuit breakers, fuses or other such devices to operate.
NOTE: It is acceptable that the system may restart when the voltage is -40,5 VDC or anywhere within the
nominal service voltage range and/or after a time delay.
4.3.2 Abnormal conditions: voltage variations, dips and short interruptions
ICT equipment shall comply with the requirements defined in this clause when subject to the abnormal voltage range
defined in table 3 that can be present at the interface "A".
This requirement shall be verified by applying at interface "A" a voltage step test with specification and parameters
defined in table 3. The testing and measurement techniques are described in EN 61000-4-29 [7].
The test shall apply to equipment with single and multiple power supply inputs.

Figure 1: Identification of interface "A"
4.1 Nominal voltage
The nominal voltage at interface "A" shall be -48 VDC with positive conductor connected to earth as defined in ETSI
EN 300 253 [1].
NOTE 1: The positive conductor, also called DC return, can be (see ETSI EN 300 253 [1]):
Isolated DC return: this is a DC power system in which the DC power return conductor has a single
point connection to the bonding network. Equipment intended for this power distribution has a
floating DC power at the power input terminal.
Common DC return: this is a DC power system in which the return conductor is connected to the
bonding network at many points. Equipment intended for this power distribution can have the DC
return earthed at the power input terminal.
NOTE 2: In most cases the nominal voltage of interface "A" is based on a 24 cells lead-acid battery. Use of other
technologies, such as Lithium-ion batteries, are increasing and are compatible with the requirements of
the present document
4.2 Normal service voltage range at interface "A"
The normal service voltage range for the -48 VDC nominal supply at interface "A" shall be from -40,5 VDC
to -57,0 VDC.
NOTE 1: The maximum voltage is based on a 0,3 V drop in the distribution loop and a battery voltage of
2,35 V/cell plus 0,5 % for regulation.
There shall be no degradation of service performance when ICT equipment is operating at voltages within the normal
service voltage range including voltage variation inside the normal voltage range.
This requirement shall be verified by applying at interface "A" a voltage step test with specification and parameters
defined in table 1. The testing and measurement techniques are described in EN 61000-4-29 [7].
The test shall apply to equipment with single and multiple power supply "A" interface inputs.

In the case of ICT equipment with power supply input redundancy (e.g. Input 1 and Input 2), this test shall be
performed:
• with Inputs 1 and 2 powered simultaneously and applying the test in table 1 on both inputs simultaneously;
• with Inputs 1 and 2 powered simultaneously and applying the test in table 1 on one input (either Input 1 or 2);
• with either Input 1 or 2 powered and no power on the other power input and applying the test in table 1 on the
powered input.
NOTE 2: The minimum voltage is based on the voltage drop in the distribution network and a battery cell end of
discharge voltage.
NOTE 3: The voltages specified are measured at interface "A". It should be noted that if interface "A" is at any
point other than the ICT equipment interface as presented in annex A, there will be a voltage drop
between interface "A" and the equipment terminals.
4.3 Abnormal service voltage range at interface "A"
4.3.1 Abnormal service voltage range under steady state conditions
ICT equipment designed to work at 48 VDC nominal voltage at the interface "A" shall not suffer any damage when
subjected to the following voltage ranges defined in table 2.
Table 2
0,0 V to -40,5 VDC
-57,0 VDC to -60,0 VDC
Following the restoration of the supply to the normal voltage range, the power conversion and management systems on
the load side of interface "A" shall automatically restore normal service. The ICT equipment shall then resume
operation according to its specifications. The abnormal service voltage shall not lead to the disconnection of the power
supply e.g. by causing circuit breakers, fuses or other such devices to operate.
NOTE: It is acceptable that the system may restart when the voltage is -40,5 VDC or anywhere within the
nominal service voltage range and/or after a time delay.
4.3.2 Abnormal conditions: voltage variations, dips and short interruptions
ICT equipment shall comply with the requirements defined in this clause when subject to the abnormal voltage range
defined in table 3 that can be present at the interface "A".
This requirement shall be verified by applying at interface "A" a voltage step test with specification and parameters
defined in table 3. The testing and measurement techniques are described in EN 61000-4-29 [7].
The test shall apply to equipment with single and multiple power supply inputs.

Figure 1: Identification of interface "A"
4.1 Nominal voltage
The nominal voltage at interface "A" shall be -48 VDC with positive conductor connected to earth as defined in ETSI
EN 300 253 [1].
NOTE 1: The positive conductor, also called DC return, can be (see ETSI EN 300 253 [1]):
Isolated DC return: this is a DC power system in which the DC power return conductor has a single
point connection to the bonding network. Equipment intended for this power distribution has a
floating DC power at the power input terminal.
Common DC return: this is a DC power system in which the return conductor is connected to the
bonding network at many points. Equipment intended for this power distribution can have the DC
return earthed at the power input terminal.
NOTE 2: In most cases the nominal voltage of interface "A" is based on a 24 cells lead-acid battery. Use of other
technologies, such as Lithium-ion batteries, are increasing and are compatible with the requirements of
the present document
4.2 Normal service voltage range at interface "A"
The normal service voltage range for the -48 VDC nominal supply at interface "A" shall be from -40,5 VDC
to -57,0 VDC.
NOTE 1: The maximum voltage is based on a 0,3 V drop in the distribution loop and a battery voltage of
2,35 V/cell plus 0,5 % for regulation.
There shall be no degradation of service performance when ICT equipment is operating at voltages within the normal
service voltage range including voltage variation inside the normal voltage range.
This requirement shall be verified by applying at interface "A" a voltage step test with specification and parameters
defined in table 1. The testing and measurement techniques are described in EN 61000-4-29 [7].
The test shall apply to equipment with single and multiple power supply "A" interface inputs.

In the case of ICT equipment with power supply input redundancy (e.g. Input 1 and Input 2), this test shall be
performed:
• with Inputs 1 and 2 powered simultaneously and applying the test in table 1 on both inputs simultaneously;
• with Inputs 1 and 2 powered simultaneously and applying the test in table 1 on one input (either Input 1 or 2);
• with either Input 1 or 2 powered and no power on the other power input and applying the test in table 1 on the
powered input.
NOTE 2: The minimum voltage is based on the voltage drop in the distribution network and a battery cell end of
discharge voltage.
NOTE 3: The voltages specified are measured at interface "A". It should be noted that if interface "A" is at any
point other than the ICT equipment interface as presented in annex A, there will be a voltage drop
between interface "A" and the equipment terminals.
4.3 Abnormal service voltage range at interface "A"
4.3.1 Abnormal service voltage range under steady state conditions
ICT equipment designed to work at 48 VDC nominal voltage at the interface "A" shall not suffer any damage when
subjected to the following voltage ranges defined in table 2.
