Part 3: Safety Rules for the Installation and Maintenance of Underground Electric Supply and Communication Lines CP6253
Part 5: Safety Rules for the Installation and Maintenance of Electric Generating Stations and Equipment
The new Part 5 was developed to focus on developing and enhancing procedures to safeguard persons during the installation, operation, or maintenance of an electric generating station and their associated equipment. These responsibilities used to be part of Subcommittee 3, which deals with electrical substations. Part 5 is placing particular emphasis on renewable energy, grid storage batteries, and distributed energy resources. The submitted change proposals produce updates to the Code in these areas.
