Overview

HD 60364-7-716:2023 / IEC 60364-7-716:2023 defines requirements for distribution of ELV DC power over information and communications technology (ICT) cable infrastructure. It is part of the IEC 60364 series on low-voltage electrical installations and supplements the general Parts 1–6 and 8. The standard covers the use of balanced information‑technology cables and accessories (specified by channel category in ISO/IEC 11801-1) to carry Extra‑Low Voltage (ELV) DC power delivered by power sourcing equipment in accordance with IEC 62368-3. Power delivery systems include, but are not limited to, Power over Ethernet (PoE, IEEE 802.3). The document addresses design, erection and verification, and the use of existing telecommunications cabling for combined data and ELV DC power-excluding core/access network uses (for example PBX).

Key topics and requirements

  • Scope and applicability
    • Use of balanced IT cables and accessories primarily designed for data transmission to distribute ELV DC power.
    • Inclusion and limitations (excludes core and access network cabling like PBX).
  • Design, erection and verification
    • Requirements for planning telecommunications infrastructure to support both data and DC power distribution.
    • Guidance for using existing telecommunications infrastructure for ELV DC distribution.
  • Safety and protection
    • Protection against electric shock and overcurrent (references to IEC 60364 protection clauses).
    • Coordination between conductors and overload protective devices; wiring system selection and electrical connections.
  • Wiring systems and performance
    • Use of ICT channels defined by ISO/IEC 11801-1 categories.
    • Considerations for current-carrying capacity, connector endurance and cable selection for combined power/data use.
  • Normative references
    • Integrates other standards (e.g., IEC 60364-4-41, IEC 60364-5-52, IEC 62368-3, ISO/IEC 11801-1, IEEE 802.3).

Practical applications

  • Upgrading building cabling to support PoE lighting, sensors, access control, or IoT devices using ELV DC over existing Ethernet cabling.
  • Designing new enterprise or campus cabling where combined data and DC power distribution reduces separate power cabling.
  • Verifying safety and compliance of installations that carry ELV DC over ICT infrastructure.

Who should use this standard

  • Electrical and telecommunications designers and consultants
  • Cabling installers and commissioning engineers
  • Building and facility managers planning PoE/ELV DC rollouts
  • Safety and compliance officers assessing low‑voltage installations

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 the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
