This document specifies procedures and conditions to enable the heat flux in electrical surface heating systems to be determined relative to the medium differential temperature for systems. The determination of thermal performance electrical surface heating systems and their conformity to this document is carried out by calculation in accordance with design documents and a model. This enables a uniform assessment and calculation surface heating systems.
The surface temperature and the temperature uniformity of the heated surface, nominal heat flux density between electrical heated layer and space are given as the result.
The ISO 11855 series is applicable to water based embedded surface heating and cooling systems in residential, commercial and industrial buildings[1]. The methods apply to systems integrated into the wall, floor or ceiling construction without any open-air gaps. It does not apply to ceiling mounted panel systems with open air gaps which are not integrated into the building structure.
The ISO 11855 series also applies, as appropriate, to the use of fluids other than water as a heating or cooling medium. The ISO 11855 series is not applicable for testing of systems. The methods do not apply to heated or chilled ceiling panels or beams.
[1]  ISO 11855-7 can also be used for electrical heated embedded systems.

This European Standard describes a method to calculate the power and the storage volume required for the dimensioning of domestic hot water systems (DHW). The applicability ranges from direct water heaters (no storage volume and a comparatively large effective heating power) to larger storage systems with a comparatively small heating power and large storage volumes.
This European Standard is applicable to the following water storage systems:
-   storage systems characterized by a minimal mixing zone, (such as stratified charging storage tanks or storage tanks with external heat exchangers): these systems are nominated in this standard as "charging storage systems";
-   storage tank water heaters and warm water storage tanks with a pronounced mixing zone (such as DHW storage tanks with internal heat exchangers), nominated in this standard as "mixed storage systems";
and for different uses.
The Scope also includes standardization methods for determining the energy need for domestic hot water. This European Standard covers the domestic hot water needs in buildings.
The calculation of the energy needs for DHW-Systems applies to residential and non-residential buildings, a building or a zone of a building.

This European standard defines a method for the performance assessment of building-integrated cogeneration units by the calculation of the electricity production, useful heat output and recoverable losses. Such units are commonly known as micro or small scale cogeneration, or micro or small scale CHP.
A building-integrated cogeneration, is a cogeneration unit installed to supply space heating, domestic hot water and possibly cooling within a building. It could operate as the only heating/cooling appliance of the building or in combination with other heat generators, such as boilers or electrical chillers. Unlike district heating systems, where heat and electricity are generated at central plants and transmitted through networks to a number of remote buildings, a building-integrated cogeneration unit produces useful heat for uses within the building. The electricity produced by the integrated cogeneration unit may be used within the building or may be exported.
This standard deals with heat generators for heating or for combined domestic hot water and heating services.
The calculation is based on the performance characteristics of the units, defined in product standards, and on operation conditions such the needed heat output.

This standard does not cover electric heating systems that require a transfer medium to deliver heat into the space. Examples of such systems include:
- air conditioning or cooling systems;
- unitary heat pumps;
- window, through the wall and split system;
- warm air distribution systems;
- central storage serving hot water radiator or warm air systems;
- hot water production, either storage or direct;
- any individual appliance serving more than one room;
- movable heaters.
Requirements for installation, commissioning, and operation maintenance and use of direct electrical heating systems are excluded from this document.
This standard does not overwrite national regulation.
This standard does not override or add to requirements in appliance standards

This European Standard specifies the requirements for the installation and commissioning of water-based heating systems in buildings with a maximum operating temperature of 110 oC and a maximum operating pressure of 6 bar.
This standard covers the system's requirements for the installation and commissioning of individual components of the system (e.g. heat generators, pumps, controls). It does not cover the specific commissioning requirements for these components.
This standard does not cover the installation or commissioning of attached systems (e.g. air conditioning, domestic hot water or ventilation systems).
This standard covers only the technical requirements, and does not cover any commercial or contractual arrange-ments between parties.

This standard specifies requirements for providing documents for the operation, mainte-nance and use of heating systems in buildings requiring a trained operator.
Parts of heating systems covered by this standard are:
- boilers or heat supply equipment, including control;
- safety arrangements, including air supply;
- district heating heat exchangers, heat meters and primary domestic hot water production facilities;
- energy sources, storage and supply;
- flue gas systems, including condensate treatment and disposal;
- heat distribution network, including associated components;
- heat emitters, including accessories;
- systems for control and supervision;
- water treatments and procedures (e.g. chemical and physical, including antifreeze).

This standard specifies requirements for providing documents for the operation, mainte-nance and use of heating systems in buildings not requiring a trained operator.
Parts of heating systems covered by this standard are:
- boilers or heat supply equipment, including control;
- safety arrangements, including air supply;
- domestic hot water production facilities;
- energy sources, storage and supply;
- flue gas systems, including condensate treatment and disposal;
- heat distribution network, including associated components;
- heat emitters, including accessories;
- control system;
- water treatments and procedures (e.g. chemical and physical, including antifreeze).

This document specifies design criteria for closed water-based cooling systems in buildings. The requirements aim at achieving a proper technical quality level and maintaining the desired thermal indoor climate with minimum energy consumption.
Systems for dissipating process heat from industrial processes, for example, are not covered by this document.
This document does not amend product standards or product installation requirements. The document covers cooling systems of the following type (see Figure 1):
1)   devices for the water-based heat rejection of the chilling system;
2)   devices for chilling and storage of chilled water;
3)   devices for the distribution of chilled water;
4)   devices for the absorption of heat (“cooling emission”);
5)   control devices;
6)   safety devices.
Figure 1 - Schematic example of a water-based cooling system
The design of such systems is described in this document. Additional safety aspects for water-based cooling systems with local operating temperatures ≤ 0 °C are not covered by this document. The other clauses of this document are still valid for systems with local operating temperatures ≤ 0 °C.
This document does not cover the chilling system itself, but only the parts of the chilling system which are an integral part of the cooling system, including determination of the design performance. Furthermore, this document does not cover:
-   the requirements for installation or instructions for operation, maintenance and use;
-   the design of the system components (e.g. recooler, chilling system, coolers, pipes, safety devices etc.).
