For the purpose of this p rt of IEC 10 2, the
fol owing definitions a ply
instalation
a) Activ ities of ar ang ing faci ities for electrical
equipment and of placing and inter on ecting it
on site with the purpose of making it rea y for
fu ctioning tog ether
b) Result of these activ ities, e.g the l g hting
sy stem of a house
N T 1 Instalation ma b p rt of the man facturing roces
of pre-as embled u its Documents for these activities are not the
subject of this stan ard
N T 2 The term “instalation” is used for the set-up of
computer software Documents for this activity are not the
subject of this stan ard
N T 3 The term “instalation” is often used for an o ject
( e.g , the lghting system of a house)
instalation phase
period in the l fetime of a plant or sy stem betwe n
delv ery and commis ioning of electrical equipment
during which the instal ation work ( erecting ,
instal ng , con ecting , etc.) is done ( se Fig ure 1)
N T I is considered, as far as the pre aration of documents
is concerned, that the lfetime b gins when the plant or sy stem is
desig ned an plan ed
Trang 10instal ation docum ents
documents mainly sup orting the activ ities in
relation to the instalation phase of a project
further definitions of terms used in this stand rd
are presented in IEC 10 2-1
3 Electrical instal ations, docum ents
and inform ation
3.1 K inds ofele trical instal ations
Electrical instal ations can be div ided into sep rate
sy stems, e.g lg hting , power sup ly , etc The
sy stems can be instaled in diferent objects l ke
ships, buiding s, mines, etc ( se Ta le 1) The rules
and principles presented in this stand rd a ply
b sical y to al sy stems and are not restricted to any
object Specific requirements for the diferent fields
of tech olog y or diferent branches are not treated
NOT The definition of kin s of electrical instalations or
systems is not the subject of this stan ard
Ta le 1shows ex mples of sy stems and objects Any
combination of these is pos ible The let er in the
ta le represent ex mples of diferent instalation
projects
Project A: Telecommu ication and security
sy stem in a commer ial buiding
Project B: Power and lg ht sy stem in the same
commer ial bui ding as project A
Project C: Alarm sy stem in a mine
Project D: Control and d ta sy stem and
air-conditioning sy stem in an air raft
Each sy stem within one instalation project should
normal y be documented sep rately , taking into
ac ount the complexity of the instal ation Diferent
sy stems ma hav e diferent requirements
concerning the information neces ary for their
instal ation A combined presentation shal only be
used if the diferent sy stems are clearly
disting uisha le f om one another
Fig ure 1 — Perio s in the l fetim e of a plant or system
Trang 11Table 1 — Ex m ples of systems and o je ts
3.2 Instal ation docum ents
Instalation documents ma serv e as a b sis for:
— instal ng conduits, ducts, racks, etc
— lay ing conductor and ca les;
— placing equipment;
— inter on ecting equipment;
— inspecting the instal ation;
— etc
They ma also serv e as a b sis for activ ities outside
the instal ation phase, e.g :
— specification and calculation of material and
work;
— desig n of equipment sup orts
( e.g fou d tions);
— desig n of other sy stems
In practice sup lementary documents ma be
required for such purposes as manufacturing ,
operation or maintenance, but they also contain
information of importance for instal ation
Function-oriented diag rams and con ection
diag rams, ta les and lsts are cov ered in
IEC 10 2-2 and IEC10 2-3 Parts l sts are under
consideration as a sep rate p rt of this stand rd
Rules for the prep ration of location documents are
presented in clause 4 of this stand rd
N T Location documents ma b combined with other
documents,e.g fu ction-oriented or con ection documents
W hich kinds of document are to be prep red and
sup led depends on the information required for
the specific task or instalation project ac ording to
its siz and complexity This is subject to ag re ment
betwe n the p rties inv olv ed
3.3 Inform ation for instal ation purposes
For each instalation activ ity a certain amou t of
information is required This shal be prov ided b
diferent kinds of instal ation documents and
sup lementary documents to the extent ag re d
upon, e.g in a contract
The amou t of information to be presented in the
documents ma difer considera ly ac ording to the
complexity of the sy stem to be instal ed, the
av ai a i ity of esta l shed rules, reg ulations,
stand rds, customer stipulations, etc or the ski of
the instal ation per on el
Residential bui ding s

4 Comm on rules for presentation of
location docum ents
4.1 General
Location documents shal be prep red in ac ord nce
with the rules in IEC 10 2-1 and with the rules
g iv en in this p rt of IEC 10 2
They mainly des ribe the relativ e or a solute
position and/or dimensions of objects by :
— simplfied sha es of objects;
— main dimensions of objects and/ or distances
betwe n them;
— sy mbols representing objects
Information on aspects other than “ location” ma be
included if this is ag re d The location information
shal be presented tog ether with neces ary
information a out the sur ou ding s in which the
electrical objects are ( to be) located
4.2 Basic docum ents
It is as umed in this stand rd that the b sic
documents are prep red ac ording to ISO stand rds
concerning formats, l nes, let ering , etc
( se IEC 10 2-1) Basic documents are for ex mple
ar hitectural documents, lands a e ma s, site
plans, etc They may , if ag re d, be drawn
isometricaly or in per pectiv e
NOT Basic documents are mostly pre ared b
non-electrotech ical p rties lke oficial authorities, ar hitects’ or
civ il engine r ’ drawing ofices, normaly folowing the rules of
ISO stan ards
Requirements for the content of information in b sic
documents are subject to ag re ment betwe n the
p rties inv olv ed in an instal ation project The
document( s) should be del v ered for electrical desig n
without information a out items of non-electrical
instal ations, furniture, decorativ e elements etc I
such information is neces ary for the plan ing of
electrical instalations, this should be prov ided in
sep rate b sic documents
NOT The use of la er tech ique ( se 4.3) ma b
adv nta e us when computer aided design systems
( CAD systems) are a pled
Trang 15For p per-b sed documents, methods for improv ed
contrasting ma be used lke g rey ish in ing or a
diferent colour for the b sic detai s These methods
shal only be used in so far as they do not afect the
rea a i ity of the final document, for ex mple after
copy ing or printing
4.3 Guidel nes when using CAD systems
W here a CAD sy stem al ows it, diferent sy stems
should be kept sep rately , each kind being placed in
its own lay er but with the pos ibi ty to combine the
diferent lay er The b sis for al lay er shal be a
b sic document ac ording to 4.2
Electrical instal ation detais should not be mixed
with detai s of other sy stems ( se 4.4); howev er the
position of non-electrical equipment, for instance
water-pipes, should be considered
For ex mple the orig inal simple ar hitectural
drawing is the b sic lay er The ca le routing les in
another lay er, the l g hting sy stem in a third and the
ar ang ement of switchg ear cubicles and other
electrical material in a fourth lay er ( se Fig ure 2)
NOT The use of la er a ples to two-dimensional
re resentation only
4.4 La out
Location documents shal hav e a clear lay out to
faci tate rea ing and u der tanding of the
contained information
Non-electrical objects shal only be shown if the
information is important for the u der tanding of
the document and for the proper erection of the
electrical instal ation This is p rticularly
important if there is a tendency to ov er rowd the
document with u neces ary detais
I non-electrical objects are shown they shal be
presented in such a wa that they are clearly
disting uisha le fom the electrical objects
Trang 16Fig ure 2 — Ex m ple ofthe use of la er te hnique
Trang 17Ov er rowding of the documents shal be av oided b
the choice of a propriate s ales and representation
tech iques ( se IEC 10 2-1 and 4.5.2 of this
stand rd) W rit en information shal be placed
where it do s not conflct with other information,
e.g in a fixed p rt of al the documents
( prefera ly at the rig ht-hand side a ov e the title
block)
I neces ary information is contained in other
documents, e.g in an instal ation des ription,
reference to these shal be g iv en on the document
4.5 Gra hical representation of components
and conne tions
4.5.1 Repre ent at ion o component s
4.5.1.1 Electr ica l components

Mou ting methods and/or directions shal be stated
in the document I sing le items or components
require diferent mou ting methods or directions,
this ma be specified b let er a jacent to the
sy mbols, for ex mple:
Other let er ma be defined as required
The let er ma be combined and shal be ex lained
on the document or in sup orting documentation
N T 1 For wal mou ting of lamps a symb l is av aia le
(symb l 1 -1 -0 in IE 6 7)
N T 2 A more comprehensiv e let er code for factory-buit
wiring systems is u der consideration
In more compl cated cases, a sep rate i ustration
( smal sketch) and/or des ription ma be neces ary
The presentation of sy mbols shal be in ac ord nce
with IEC 10 2-1 ( for sy mbol siz refer to 4.4.3 of
IEC10 2-1)
Major electrical components ma be represented b
their simpl fied outl ne if they do not hav e a
stand rdised sy mbol or if the sy mbol would be
impractical to use
4.5.1.2 Non-electr ica l components
I sy mbols for non-electrical components are
required they shal be chosen f om the relev ant ISO
publcations
4.5.1.3 Exa mpl es f r the us o symbol s on

4.5.2 Conne t ing l ine , r ut ing
I it is required to show conductor they shal be
drawn in sing le- ne representation as des ribed in
IEC 617 and in IEC 10 2-1 Multi ine
representation should only be used if it is neces ary
to ex lain complcated con ection detais
The con ecting lnes shal be clearly disting uisha le
f om the l nes showing the lands a e or structural
and ar hitectural detais For ex mple l ne
thick es es or inking diferent fom those on the

purpose are the use of hatching or sha ing of wals
For an ex mple se Fig ure A.2
W here many p ralel con ecting lnes tend to
ov er rowd the diag ram the use of simpl fication
tech iques l ke bu dlng ( des ribed in 4.4.7.2 of
IEC10 2-1), or inter uption of l nes ( des ribed
in4.4.6 of IEC 10 2-1) is recommended
Another method of showing that con ections exist is
g iv en b the use of a propriate item desig nations
( se 4.5.3)
4.5.3 Us o referenc d esignat ions
I an item desig nation sy stem is required — mostly
for complex instal ations — a reference desig nation
shal be shown a jacent to each sy mbol in a drawing
or diag ram The reference desig nation shal be in
ac ord nce with IEC13 6 ( Se also an ex A.)
4.5.4 Te hnical dat a
Technical d ta ( rating s) of indiv idual components
shal normaly be stated in p rts lsts For clarity or
to disting uish items difering fom the majority of
items, a characteristic v alue ma also be shown
a jacent to the sy mbol and the item desig nation on
the document:

5 Difer nt kinds oflocation
docum ents
Location des ribing documents are diferentiated as
shown in the tre structure presented in Fig ure 3
The word “ bui ding ” is used here as a g eneral term
for al containments enclosing tech ical plants or
sy stems, e.g houses, ships, air raft, ofshore
platforms, etc
5.1 Requirem ents on basic documents
The b sis for al instal ation documents shal be
lay out documents ( term and definition ac ording to
ISO1020 -1) l ke a site plan, a bui ding drawing
etc These documents are mostly prep red b
p rties outside the electrotech ical field They shal
fulfi requirements on information neces ary for the
plan ing of electrical instalations as fol ows
5.1.1 Requirement s on sit e pl ans
Site plans ( se IEC 10 2-1) are often the b sis for
instalation documents showing the location of
electrical equipment on a site
Site plans shal be drawn to s ale, which shal be
clearly stated, u les otherwise ag re d
Site plans shal show the form of the lands a e or
the buiding site tog ether with al neces ary
information for the plan ing of electrical
instalations and for locating electrical equipment
The plan shal hav e g eog ra hical orientation points,
north-direction indicator, the location and outlne of
bui ding s, trafic areas, serv ice networks, ac es
faci ties, major items and site bou d ries
Adjacent faci ities l ke power lnes or bridg es shal
be shown if they influence the instal ations on the
area in any sig nificant way
5.1.2 Requirement s on buil d ing drawings
Buiding drawing s are mostly the b sis for
instalation documents des ribing the location of
electrical equipment in a bui ding
Trang 20Buiding drawing s for electrical instal ation
purposes shal be drawn to s ale, which shal be
clearly stated, u les otherwise ag re d
Buiding drawing s shal show:
— outlnes and constructional detai s of ro ms,

5.1.3 Requirement s on drawings o me hanical
component s
Lay out drawing s of mechanical components are
used as input information for positioning and
con ecting electrical components They shal
prov ide information neces ary for this purpose, e.g :
— sp ce av ai a le and ac es required;
— fixing ar ang ements;
— conductor routing and/ or fixing ar ang ements;
Instal ation documents b sed on site plans shal
contain information a out outdo r components l ke
outdo r lg hting fixed on to bui ding s, stre t
lg hting , trafic control items, TV surv ei lance
equipment ( se Fig ure 4)
5.2.2 Inst al l at ion diagram
Site instalation diag rams ( se Fig ure 5) are
instal ation drawing s ( se 5.1.2) where information
a out the con ections betwe n the electrical
components is a ded
5.2.3 Cabl e r ut ing drawing
A ca le routing drawing is a document, mostly
b sed on a site plan, on which the location of ca le
tu nels, tray s, ducts, tru king sy stems, sup orts
etc and/or the actual ca les or bu dles of ca les are
shown ( se Fig ure 6)
A ca le routing drawing shal be lmited to show the
ca le routes only and, if this is required, the
auxi ary faci ities ( to be) instaled to sup ort the
ca le-ay ing and fixing
Numbering of the items mentioned shal be a ded if
required Likewise, dimensions shal be a ded if
they are not stated, tog ether with the n mbering in
an at ached p rts or ca le lst
For a precise des ription of the route, the calculation
of the leng th of each ca le and the prov ision of ca le
ac es ories, it ma be a v isa le to present a coding
of reference points ( se Fig ure 6)
5.2.4 Eart hing pl an ( art hing drawing,
eart hing d iagram)
An earthing plan ( drawing , diag ram) ma be drawn
on the b sis of a site plan
On an earthing plan ( drawing ) the location of the
earthing electrodes and b r shal be shown,
tog ether with dis onnecting ln s and earthing
points of important earthed components
( like trans ormer , motor , cir uit-breaker , etc.)
An earthing diag ram shal show also the earthing
conductor ( se Fig ure 7)
The dimensions and/or desig nations, joints and
lay ing or driv ing depths of conductor and
electrodes shal be indicated, if required
NOT A lghtning protection system ma b shown in an
e rthing plan or presented in a se arate lg htning protection
drawing or dia ram
5.3 Documents for location of equipm ent in
bui ding s and in other o je ts
5.3.1 Ar angement drawing (inst al l at ion
d rawing)
This document is b sed on a bui ding drawing The
components of an electrical instal ation shal be
shown b the use of sy mbols ( se Fig ure 9) or b
simplfied outl nes ac ording to 4.5.1 ( se Fig ure 8)
The sy mbols shal be shown at the a proximate
position of the component
NOT An arang ment drawing do s not neces ariy giv
information a out con ections b twe n the comp nents
Detaied information ma be neces ary in the form
of ex ct distances and/ or dimensions In some cases
the document ma be sup lemented b detai
drawing s or specifications Information a out
identification of equipment and desig nations shal
be included
Instalations outside a bui ding ma only be shown
on such an ar ang ement drawing if no site
