It applies to all installations, whether permanent, temporary, transportable or hand-held, to AC installations and DC installations without any voltage level limitation. Referenced equipment standards may give voltage level limitations.

This document specifies requirements such as those concerning
- protection during equipment storage and in the installation period,
- installation of generators and motors,
- installation of transformers,
- installation of switchgear and controlgear assemblies,
- installation of semiconductor converters and UPS,
- installation of secondary cells and batteries,
- installation of luminaires,
- installation of heating and cooking appliances,
- installation of trace and surface heating,
- installation of cables and wiring, both low-voltage and high-voltage cables,
- requirements in relation to earthing and bonding,
