The purpose of this part of IEC 62257 is to specify the general requirements for the design and the implementation of a user's installation. This part of IEC 62257-9 applies to single phase user's electrical installations with maximum power of 500 VA, in Decentralized Rural Electrification Systems (DRES). NOTE For installations above 500 VA in decentralized electrification systems, IEC 62257-5 applies. This part of IEC 62257-9 is applicable to installations supplied by a microgrid (120 V a.c. or 230 V a.c.) and to installations encompassing their own single-unit micropowerplant (120 V a.c. or 230 V a.c. or 12 V d.c. or 24 V d.c.) The part of IEC 62257-9 applies neither to the electric power production and distribution installations described in the sections concerning microplants and microgrids, nor to user electrical equipment. It details the rules governing the design and construction of consumer’s electrical installations for the purpose of ensuring the safety of persons and property, and satisfactory operation in accordance with the purpose for which the installations are designed. It applies to new installations and modifications of existing installations.
