Electric code and EN61936 (yes I know that IEC60364 scopes only < 1500Vdc)
other standards for power distribution stuff: IEC62103 IEC62109 EN50178 UL1651,2 (worthless because they just cite IEEE C57.12 clauses) Dobbs - If you're a NCB auditor, where are your directives? Gold Hat - 'Directives? We ain't got no directive. We don't need no directives! I don't have to show you any stinkin' directives! with apoligies to Traven....

Electricity supplies >1500V are generally outwith the Low Voltage public distribution network, and connection would be governed by the supply authority. If you are considering outputs from equipment >1500V, then that does not place the equipment outside the scope of the LVD. Standards such as EN61010-1 provide for secondary circuits at kV levels.

Which directive applies to equipment rated above 1500 V? Thanks John Harrington Compliance Engineer Keithley Instruments, Inc.
