ISOIEC/JTC 1/SC25 - ISOIEC_JTC_1/SC25

This Technical Report applies to electrical equipment using signals in the frequency range 1,6 MHz to 30 MHz to transmit information on low voltage electrical systems, either on the public supply system or within installations in consumers’ premises. It is a Technical Report covering the different standards for HF Power Line produced by SC205A. It points to related documents about: -frequency bands, coexistence and filters; -limits for the terminal output levels in the operating band; -limits for conducted and radiated disturbance (product & installation EMC); -measurement methods. It does not specify the signal modulation methods nor the coding methods nor functional features. Environmental requirements and tests are not included. The requirements have been selected so as to ensure an adequate level of EMC and EMI for all apparatus (e.g. including residential, commercial, light industrial and industrial premises). The severity levels required by this Technical Report may not cover extreme cases which may occur in any location but with a low probability of occurrence. In special cases situations will arise where the level of disturbances may exceed the levels specified in this Technical Report (e.g. where a hand-held transmitter is used in proximity to an apparatus). In these instances special mitigation measures may be required.

1.1 The SmartHouse and its components The SmartHouse consists of a large and wide ranging set of many Services, Applications, Equipment, Networks and Systems that act together in delivering the “intelligent” or “connected” home in order to address security and control, communications, leisure and comfort, environmental integration and accessibility. These components are represented by many actors that interact and work together to provide interoperable systems that benefit the home based user in the SmartHouse. Because of this wide ranging variability of the entities in the SmartHouse, there is a very high level of potential complexity in finding the optimal solution for any particular SmartHouse. The main actors that influence the SmartHouse are the consumers (customers, subscribers, individuals) that live in and utilise the Services, Applications and Products that are designed for the SmartHouse. It is therefore appropriate that the other main set of actors are the service and application providers that deliver the services that the consumers need and require, including those responsible for installing systems in the SmartHouse and for maintaining them. These consumers have needs and requirements in many areas and these are described in the Section on Consumers. Likewise the aims and objectives of the Service Providers in fulfilling consumer needs are described in the section on Service Providers. The installer also has to fulfil consumer needs and the Installation Process is described in the section on Installation.

This standard applies to electrical equipment using signals in the frequency range 1,6 MHz to 30 MHz to transmit information on low voltage electrical systems, either on the public supply system or within installations in consumers’ premises. It does not specify the signal modulation methods nor the coding methods nor functional features. Environmental requirements and tests are not included. The immunity requirements have been selected so as to ensure an adequate level of immunity for apparatus at residential, commercial and light industrial premises (Class 1 environment), and industrial premises supplied from a dedicated HV/MV or MV/LV transformers (Class 2 environment). The severity levels required by this standard may not cover extreme cases which may occur in any location but with a low probability of occurrence. In special cases situations will arise where the level of disturbances may exceed the levels specified in this standard (e.g. where a hand-held transmitter is used in proximity to an apparatus). In these instances special mitigation measures may be required.

This European product safety standard applies to the filter part of portable devices for household and similar uses (hereafter referred to as portable decoupling filters) consisting of the filter part, a plug or an appliance inlet or a provision for connection by terminals or with a non-rewirable cord and one (multiple) socket-outlet or an appliance outlet. They are intended for single-phase circuits for nominal currents not exceeding 16 A and for nominal voltages not exceeding 250 V a.c. to neutral operating in the frequency range 3 kHz to 148,5 kHz and from 1,6 MHz to 30 MHz. The filtering functions are described in EN 50065-4-1. This standard does not cover phase couplers. Portable decoupling filters shall not be used as part of the fixed installation, where EN 50065-4-2 applies. Plugs and socket-outlets connected to the filter part and plugs and socket-outlets integrated with the filter part shall comply with the relevant national standard(s). Appliance inlets and appliance outlets connected to the filter part shall comply with the relevant parts of the EN 60320 series. Appliance inlets and appliance outlets integrated with the filter parts are not covered by this standard. This standard can be used for portable mains communication devices when no other product standard exists. This standard can be used for other portable mains filters other than those described in EN 50065-4-1 when no other product standard exists. Filters including batteries are not covered by this standard.

This European Standard defines the mandatory and optional requirements for the medium specific physical and data link layer of power line Class 1 in its two variations PL110 and PL132. Data link layer interface and general definitions, which are medium independent, are given in EN 50090 4-1.

This European Standard applies to phase couplers in a mains communication system for phase to neutral voltage not exceeding 250 V a.c. and a nominal current not exceeding 125 A, intended for household and similar fixed installation including residential, commercial and light industrial buildings. This European Standard applies to phase couplers used to control the coupling of communication signals between phases or sections of a mains communication system. A “phase coupler” may be used to achieve coupling between the phases of a multiphase installation, or to provide bridging of signals around other system components. The standard defines  the requirements to ensure a minimum coupling between the sections, and  the requirements to ensure no change on the safety of the electrical installation.

This European Standard defines the mandatory and optional requirements for the medium specific physical and data link layer for HBES Class 1 Twisted Pair in its two variations called TP0 and TP1. Data link layer interface and general definitions, which are media independent, are given in EN 50090 4 2.

This international standard establishes general principles for network- and device-management shared by and independent of the installation mode. The goal is to standardize the interaction, between a management client and a management server, that shall lead to the successful configuration of the devices. In this way, these management procedures thus specify the highest level communication requirements between a management client and a management server. These requirements specify: a) the sequence of messages that shall be exchanged between a management client and a management server, and b) the contents and interpretation of the transported data, and c) the action to take based on these data (setting internal resources, state machines, physical actions, …), and d) the error and exception handling. The management procedures base on the application layer services. Some management procedures solely base on the use of one or a sequence of dedicated application layer services to achieve the required goal. For these, the documents EN 50090-4-1 and EN 50090-4-2 provide sufficient information for the underlying mechanisms. Other management procedures additionally use the application layer services to access internal data in the management server to achieve the required goal. These data are laid down as objects as specified in EN 50090 3 2.

This part of the EN 50090 specifies the services and protocol of the application layer for usage in Home and Building Electronic Systems. It provides the services and the interface to the user process as defined in EN 50090 3 2. This procedure is based on the services and the protocol is provided by the Transport Layer, Network Layer and Data Link Layer as specified in EN 50090 4 2.

This part of EN 50090 specifies the structure and functioning of servers for the objects which form the interface between the application layer and the application and management.

This standard applies to segmentation filters in a mains communication system used for single or multiphase installations having a phase to neutral voltage not exceeding 250 V a.c. and a nominal current not exceeding 125 A, intended for household and similar fixed installation including residential, commercial and light industrial buildings and utility networks. These filters (see Figure 1) are used to control the coupling of signals between two areas of a mains communication system. The standard defines -the minimum impedance in the relevant frequency range(s) at both ports, -the minimum attenuation of signals transmitted between port.

This standard applies to impedance filters in a mains communication system for phase to neutral voltage not exceeding 250 V a.c. and a nominal current not exceeding 125 A, intended for household and similar fixed installation including residential, commercial and light industrial buildings. This standard also applies to "plug-in filters". These filters (see Figure 1) are used to set a suitable impedance, in the nominal frequency range of the mains signalling system, at any point of the low voltage mains network where a low impedance equipment is connected, in order to allow reliable operation of mains signalling system. These impedance filters can be used either in utility or consumer networks. They may also be used in conjunction with incoming filters and segmentation filters.

This standard applies to electrical equipment using signals in the frequency range 95 kHz to 148,5 kHz to transmit or receive information on low voltage electrical systems, residential, commercial and light industrial environments.

Other parts of the equipment shall comply with the immunity standard or standards relevant to the functions of those other parts. In the event of tests being specified in those other standards of a different severity and where the construction of the equipment is such that the functions cannot be tested separately, the higher severity shall apply to all affected functions. The object of this standard is to limit mutual influence between mains communication equipment and systems (MCES) operating in different frequency bands as defined in EN 50065-1 and to contribute to ensuring Electromagnetic Compatibility in general. It specifies essential immunity requirements and test methods, including those tests which are to be performed during type-testing of MCES on low-voltage installations, for electromagnetic interference in general and more specific interference coming from other MCES. It therefore defines the immunity test requirements for apparatus in relation to continuous and transient disturbances, both conducted and radiated, and electrostatic discharges. Test requirements are specified for each port considered. This standard gives limits which are applicable to products operating in residential, commercial and light industrial environments. The levels do not however cover extreme cases which may occur in any location but with a low probability of occurrence.

Safety considerations are not included in this standard.

This standard applies to incoming filters used to control the coupling of signals between the utility area and the consumer area (see Figure 1). The standard defines • the minimum impedance in the relevant frequency band(s) at both Utility port and Consumer port, • the minimum attenuation of unwanted signals transmitted from the utility side to the consumer side and vice versa, • the transmission characteristics: - operating frequency domain for both utility side and consumer side, - attenuation between the utility side and the consumer side and vice versa, - impedance at the utility side and at the consumer side.

This European Standard specifies generic cabling that supports a wide range of communications services including automation, process control and monitoring applications for use within industrial premises comprising single or multiple buildings on a campus. It covers balanced cabling and optical fibre cabling. This European Standard is based upon and references the requirements of EN 50173-1. This European Standard contains additional requirements that are appropriate to industrial premises in which the maximum distance over which communications services have to be distributed is 10 000 m. The principles of this European Standard may also be applied to installations that do not fall within this range. In addition to the requirements of EN 50173-1, this European Standard specifies: a) a modified structure and configuration for generic cabling within industrial premises in which information technology applications are used to support process monitoring and control functions; b) implementation options; c) additional requirements that reflect the range of operating environments within industrial premises. Safety (electrical safety and protection, optical power, fire, etc.) and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements are outside the scope of this European Standard and are covered by other Standards and regulations. However, information given in this European Standard may be of assistance in meeting these Standards and regulations.

This European Standard sets the requirements for functional safety for HBES products and systems, a multi-application bus system where the functions are decentralised, distributed and linked through a common communication process. The requirements may also apply to the distributed functions of any equipment connected in a home or building control system if no specific functional safety standard exist for this equipment or system. The functional safety requirements of this European Standard apply together with the relevant product standard for the device if any. This European Standard is used as a product family standard. It is not intended to be used as a stand-alone standard. This European Standard does not provide functional safety requirements for safety-related systems.

This standard provides common rules for the planning and engineering as well as installation of HBES cabling systems taking into account the layout of the cable support, cables and connectors, and the commissioning of HBES. It applies to HBES networks installed according to the legal boundaries of the electrical utilities additionally.
