Re : Standard for general rules for low voltage switchgear assemblies and requirements for LV Panel with PLC / DCS

Hi there,

I am normally read about IEC 61439 and IEC 60947 in LV panel/cabinet/switchgear design and assembly. My confusion is do we apply another standard as well for the cabinet that assembled with PLC/DCS in the cabinet? This automation panel is used for building control systems for heating and cooling systems. Need some knowledge and experience from experts. Thanks in advance.

Cheers

    The standard is available from BSI in the UK or any of the European Standard's organisations, as are the others below.

    If you are building panels & equipment in accordance with the MD then you should hold a current copy of this standard, and any other relevant such as perhaps ISO 13850 for emergency stop functions, ISO 13809-1 & -2 for safety functions in general.

    ISO 12100 the A-type standard, any specific C-type standards for the equipment you manufacture, ISO 14119 for interlocking of guards if you have them, ISO 14120 for the design of guards, the ISO 14122 series if you are designing equipment that requires means of access such as ladders and platforms.
