IEC 60364 Electrical Installations for Buildings is the International Electro technical Commission's international standard on electrical installations of buildings. This standard is an attempt to harmonize national wiring standards in an IEC standard. The latest versions of many European wiring regulations (e.g., BS 7671 in the UK) follow the section structure of IEC 60364 very closely, but contain additional language to cater for historic national practice and to simplify field use and determination of compliance by electrical tradesmen and inspectors. National codes and site guides are meant to attain the common objectives of IEC 60364, and provide rules in a form that allows for guidance of persons installing and inspecting electrical systems.
The standard has several parts:
Part 1: Fundamental principles, assessment of general characteristics, definitions
Part 4: Protection for safety
Section 41: Protection against electric shock
Section 42: Protection against thermal effects
Section 43: Protection against overcurrent
Section 44: Protection against voltage disturbances and electromagnetic disturbances
Part 5: Selection and erection of electrical equipment
Section 51: Common rules
Section 52: Wiring systems
Section 53: Isolation, switching and control
Section 54: Earthing arrangements, protective conductors and protective bonding conductors
Section 55: Other equipment
Section 56: Safety services
Part 6: Verification
Part 7: Requirements for special installations or locations
Section 701: Electrical installations in bathrooms
Section 702: Swimming pools and other basins
Section 703: Rooms and cabins containing sauna heaters
Section 704: Construction and demolition site installations
Section 705: Electrical installations of agricultural and horticultural premises
Section 706: Restrictive conductive locations
Section 708: Electrical installations in caravan parks and caravans
Section 709: Marinas and pleasure craft
Section 710: Medical locations
Section 712: Solar photovoltaic (PV) power supply systems
Section 713: Furniture
Section 714: External lighting
Section 715: Extra-low-voltage lighting installations
Section 717: Mobile or transportable units
Section 740: Temporary electrical installations for structures, amusement devices and booths at fairgrounds, amusement parks and circuses
