Cecil, We make a select set of home energy appliances, so I can only speak for
our products. It is only required if one is making a grid-interactive ("ISE")
equipment, like a solar inverter or bi-directional EV charger. Even then it
isn't required for safety, and it's a product quality standard. So, some
utilities may require compliance to 519 for deployment, but OSHA and NEC don't.
My Google Gemini bot says it's not called out by product safety standards.
Note that IEEE 1547 for ISE also includes current harmonic emission limits.
1547 calls out 519 for measurement and assessment techniques. Colorado Brian

Hi All,
I have a question regarding IEEE 519 (“Recommended Practice and
Requirements for Harmonic Control in Electric Power Systems”):
Does the IEEE519 standard apply to product compliance and certification.
