The entire IEC 60364 collection is very large  - check on the IEC website
for a list.

The main problem with IEC 60364 it is - like the US NEC & the Canadian CEC -
only a "model code of practice" - and almost every national implementation
is slightly different.  Therefore there are national deviations in every
case to take account of existing national practices, and these are typically
not identified as such, so, for example, many parts of BS7671 is
substantially different to the equivalent sections of IEC 60364.

That is probably also why the 60364 set has not yet become a set of EN's -
although I believe that some sections have been partially adopted under the
Harmonisation Document (HD) route - check the CENELEC site for more details.

The good thing about the IEC structure is, however, that most countries
roughly follow it when constructing their own national versions, and so it
is easier to identify where those national deviations might be than was the
case when the structure of each set of national wiring rules (they are
rarely "regulations" as such) was entirely different.
