DIN EN ISO 16315

Abstract

Scope: This International Standard addresses the design and installation of alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) electrical systems used for the purpose of electrical propulsion and/or electrical hybrid (system with both a rechargeable battery and a fuelled power source) propulsion. This International Standard applies to electrical propulsion systems operated in the following ranges either individually or in combination: — direct current of less than 1 500 V DC; — single-phase alternating current up to AC 1 000 V; — three-phase alternating current up to AC 1 000 V. This International Standard applies to electrical propulsion systems installed in small craft up to 24 m length of the hull (LH according to ISO 8666). This International Standard also lists in Annex A additional information to be included in the owner’s manual as well as Annex B additional information to be provided to the installer.
