The pr<strong>in</strong>ciples ofall such regulations however, are common, and are based on <strong>the</strong> observance ofrigorous safety rules <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> design and realization of <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>stallation.IEC 60364-6-61 and related standards <strong>in</strong>cluded <strong>in</strong> this guide are based on an<strong>in</strong>ternational consensus for such tests, <strong>in</strong>tended to cover all <strong>the</strong> safety measures andapproved <strong>in</strong>stallation practices normally required for residential, commercial and (<strong>the</strong>majority of) <strong>in</strong>dustrial build<strong>in</strong>gs. Many <strong>in</strong>dustries however have additional regulationsrelated to a particular product (petroleum, coal, natural gas, etc.). Such additionalrequirements are beyond <strong>the</strong> scope of this guide.The pre-commission<strong>in</strong>g electrical tests and visual-<strong>in</strong>spection checks for <strong>in</strong>stallations<strong>in</strong> build<strong>in</strong>gs <strong>in</strong>clude, typically, all of <strong>the</strong> follow<strong>in</strong>g:b Insulation tests of all cable and wir<strong>in</strong>g conductors of <strong>the</strong> fixed <strong>in</strong>stallation, betweenphases and between phases and earthb Cont<strong>in</strong>uity and conductivity tests of protective, equipotential and earth-bond<strong>in</strong>gconductorsb Resistance tests of earth<strong>in</strong>g electrodes with respect to remote earthb Verification of <strong>the</strong> proper operation of <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>terlocks, if anyb Check of allowable number of socket-outlets per circuitSchneider Electric - <strong>Electrical</strong> <strong>in</strong>stallation guide <strong>2009</strong>
