Overview

The requirements of this part of the DIN VDE 0100 (VDE 0100) series of standards apply to cable and wiring systems, electrical equipment in and on furniture and similar items that are connected to an electrical installation via a fixed or permanent connection, as well as electrical components that are installed on site. This also includes the electrical system in furniture and similar items installed on site and connected to the fixed installation via plug-in devices. This also includes the subsequent testing in accordance with DIN VDE 0100-600 (VDE 0100-600). The standard differs from DIN 57100-724 (VDE 0100-724):1980-06 as follows: a) the scope of application has been clarified; b) the formal structure/clause numbering has been aligned with the currently valid standards of groups 100 to 600 of the DIN VDE 0100 (VDE 0100) series of standards; c) the use of possible cables/wires for installation in furniture and their connection to the fixed installation has been recompiled; d) core conductors, including those in pipes, are no longer permitted. The responsible committee is DKE/UK 221.2 "Schutz gegen thermische Auswirkungen/Sachschutz" ("Protection against thermal effects/protection of goods") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
