Abstract:
Provides requirements for the selection and installation of electrical equipment, and design and testing of electrical installations, especially with regard to the essential requirements for safety of persons and livestock from physical injury, fire or electric shock.

Part 1 provides uniform essential elements that constitute the minimum regulatory requirements for a safe electrical installation.
Part 2 provides installation practices that achieve certainty of compliance with the essential safety requirements of Part 1.
