Identification Standards for Electrical Components in Distribution Boxes

Identification Standards for Electrical Components in Distribution Boxes

IEC 81346-2, published jointly by IEC and ISO defines classes and subclasses of objects based on a purpose- or task-related view of the objects, together with their associated letter codes to be used in reference designations. This standard describes requirements for numbering and labeling of real property electrical distribution equipment, circuits, and site lighting at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. This is an internal LLNL standard meant to guide the design of new facilities, facility modifications, and.
