Eletrical installatoins of buildings--Part 5:Selectrion and erection of electrical equipment--Section 548:Earthing arrangements and equipotential bonding for information technology installations
548.1.1 Scope and object
This standard covers earthing and equipotential bonding for information technology installations and similar equipment requiring interconnections for data exchange purposes.
This standard may also be used for other electronic equipment which is susceptible to interference.
Notes:
1 Information technology equipment includes all forms of electrical and electronic business equipment and telecommunications equipment (for more information regarding the term “information technology equipment” see the scope of GB 4943).
Examples of equipment and installations to which this standard may apply are:
- telecommunication and data communication or data processing equipment, or installations using signaling with earth return in internal connections and external connections to a building;
- d.c. power supply networks serving information technology equipment inside a building;
- private automatic branch exchange (PABX) equipment or installations;
- local area networks (LAN);
- fire alarm systems and intruder alarm systems;
- building services installations, e.g. direct digital control systems;
- systems for computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) and other computer-aided services.
2 Throughout this standard the term “functional” concerns the use of earthing and equipotential bonding for signaling and EMC purposes.
3 This standard does not consider the possible influence of lightning (see IEC 1024-1). GB 16895.12 and GB/T 16895.16 (idt IEC 60364-4-444) cover protection against overvoltages of atmospheric origin and due to switching, and protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) in installations of buildings.
4 In case of EMC problems associated with existing electrical installations of buildings, see Appendix A.
5 This standard does not cover requirements for connection of equipment with high-leakage-current, for which see 707.1~707.4 of GB/T 16895.9.
