IEC 60364-8-1:2019 - State-of-the-art for energy efficiency in electrical installation

IEC 60364-8-1:2019 is part of the IEC 60364 series of standards and enhances Parts 1 to 7 with the introduction of requirements and recommendations to design the electrical installation, which provides the best compromise between the required level of service and safety and the lowest electrical consumption.

It applies to new or existing installations and those under evolution and should be implemented throughout the facility’s life cycle.

The first edition of Part 8-1 of the IEC 60364 standard was released in October 2014. It has recently been updated, with a second edition released in February 2019.
