What is BS EN 50341‑2‑9 – Overhead electrical line about?
BS EN 50341 is a European standard on overhead electrical lines that discusses National Normative Aspects (NNA) for overhead electrical lines exceeding AC 1kV. Overhead electrical lines are used to transmit and distribute electrical power across long distances, forming a power or national grid.
BS EN 50341‑2‑9 specifies the NNA which is only applicable to all new overhead lines above A.C. 1kV.
Who is BS EN 50341‑2‑9 – Overhead electrical line for?
BS EN 50341‑2‑9 on the overhead electrical line is applicable to:
- Manufacturer of electric power transmission
- Manufacturer of overhead cables
- Electrical engineers
- Quality check personnel
Why should you use BS EN 50341‑2‑9 – Overhead electrical line?
Overhead power lines are used to transmit and distribute electrical power across long distances, forming a power or national grid. Steel tower structures, pylons or wooden poles suspend electricity-carrying conductors across a range of operating voltages.
BS EN 50341‑2‑9 provides you with quality assurance, checking, and taking over of the overhead electrical overhead line. As a user of BS EN 50341‑2‑9, you can ensure the safety requirements and other terms for the overhead electrical line.
