This standard is not intended to apply to: -systems for distribution of energy to the public, or -power generation and transmission for such systems. Electrical equipment is dealt with only as far as its selection and application in the installation are concerned. This applies also to assemblies of electrical equipment complying with the relevant standards. An assessment is made of the following characteristics of the installation in accordance with the clauses indicated: -the purposes for which the installation is intended to be used, its general structure and its supplies (clause 31); -the external influences to which it is to be exposed (IEC 60364-5-51); -the compatibility of its equipment (clause 33); -its maintainability (clause 34). Those characteristics shall be taken into account in the choice of methods of protection for safety (see IEC 60364-4-41 to IEC 60364-4-44) and the selection and erection of equipment (see IEC 60364-5-51 to IEC 60364-5-55).
