EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 60364-8-1 testing. IEC EN 60364-8-1 provides additional requirements, measures and recommendations for the design, installation and verification of all types of low voltage electrical installations, including local generation and energy storage, to optimize the overall efficient use of electricity.
It sets out the requirements and recommendations for the design of an electrical installation within the framework of an energy efficiency management approach to achieve the best functionally equivalent permanent service for the lowest electrical energy consumption and the most acceptable energy availability and economic balance.
These requirements and recommendations apply to new installations and replacement of existing installations under the IEC EN 60364 series. This standard applies to the electrical installation of a building or system and not to products. The energy efficiency and operating requirements of these products are within the scope of the relevant product standards. This standard does not specifically address building automation systems.
Optimization of electrical energy use can be facilitated by appropriate design and installation considerations. An electrical installation can provide the required level of service and safety for the lowest electricity consumption. This is considered by designers as a general requirement of design procedures to ensure the best use of electrical energy.
In addition to many parameters taken into account in the design of electrical installations, today more emphasis is placed on reducing and using the losses in the system. Therefore, the design of the entire installation must take into account input from users, suppliers and utilities.
It is important that this standard covers existing electrical installations in buildings in addition to new installations. Significant overall improvements in energy efficiency can be achieved by renovating existing buildings.
