Standards and Guidelines for Installation

1.6.1

Connection to the Power Circuit

HiPath communication systems are approved for connection to TN-S power supply systems.
They can also be connected to a TN-C-S power supply system in which the PEN conductor is
divided into a ground wire and a neutral wire. TN-S and TN-C-S systems are defined in the IEC
364-3 standard.
If work needs to be done on the low-voltage network, this must be carried out by a qualified
electrician. When installing and connecting the HiPath communication systems, the IEC 60364
and IEC 60364-4-41 norms or corresponding legal norms or national requirements must be ob-
served, e.g., in the USA/Canada.
1.6.2

Fire Safety Requirements

Fire safety requirements are defined on a country-specific basis in the building regulations.
Please follow the valid regulations for your country.
To ensure the legal fire protection and EMC requirements, operate the HiPath systems only
when closed. You may open the system only briefly for assembly and maintenance work.
HiPath system cables comply with the requirements of international norm IEC 60332-1 regard-
ing flammability. The following norms contain similar requirements regarding cable:
IEC 60332-1
Note:
IEC 60332-1 is equivalent
to test method UL VW-1
The division responsible for project planning and service must check whether the IEC 60332-
1 norm complies sufficiently with the relevant building regulation and any other applicable reg-
ulations.
