BSR/IEEE 1547-201x, Standard for Interconnection and Interoperability of Distributed Energy Resources with Associated Electric Power Systems Interfaces (revision of ANSI/IEEE 1547-2003 (R2008))

This standard establishes criteria and requirements for interconnection of distributed energy resources with electric power systems (EPSs) and associated interfaces. The stated technical specifications and requirements are universally needed for interconnection and interoperability of distributed energy resources (DERs2) and will be sufficient for most installations. The specified performance requirements apply at the time of interconnection and as long as the DER remains in service.

International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Call for U.S. Participants ISO Strategic Advisory Group – Accessibility

Response Deadline: November 9, 2018

Please be advised that the ISO Technical Management Board (ISO/TMB) has agreed to create
a new ISO Strategic Advisory Group (SAG) on Accessibility for an initial period of 2 years with
the following mandate:

• Align work on accessibility issues within IEC, ITU and ISO in line with the
recommendations from 2010, to address, decide and monitor key issues related to
accessibility;
• Map existing ISO standards related to accessibility;
• Map ongoing standardization work in ISO, IEC and ITU relating to accessibility;
• Take into account other relevant international initiatives;
• Develop recommendations on tools to assist the TC community in developing
standards that take accessibility into consideration;
• Liaise with CEN and CLC to exchange best practices and study results from CEN
Strategic advisory group on accessibility;
• Give recommendations to ISO on the development of new standards on
accessibility.

ANSI is seeking two (2) U.S. experts to serve on the SAG as well as additional U.S expert to
populate a U.S. Virtual Technical Advisory Group (VTAG). It is anticipated that this project will
start in December 2018 or January 2019.

Experts interested in participating should contact ANSI’s Arpana Patel by email at
apatel@ansi.org by November 9.

BSR/ASME A120.1-201x, Safety Requirements for Powered Platforms and Traveling Ladders and Gantries for Building Maintenance
(revision of ANSI/ASME A120.1-2014)

This Standard establishes safety requirements for powered platforms (scaffolds) for buildings where window cleaning and related services are accomplished by means of suspended equipment at heights in excess of 35 ft (11 m) above a safe surface (e.g., grade, street, floor, or roof level). Additionally, this Standard establishes safety requirements for permanent traveling ladders and gantries (TLG).

BSR/ASAE EP282.2-1993 (R201x), Design Values for Emergency Ventilation and Care of Livestock and Poultry (reaffirmation of ANSI/ASAE EP282.2-1993 (R2013)) Many natural, man-made, and unexpected events (i.e., power interruptions, equipment failures, extreme weather condition, storms, and natural disasters) occur requiring temporary emergency ventilation and care of livestock and poultry. These events may require either short term (i.e., minutes to days) or long term (i.e., weeks to months) temporary emergency ventilation. The purpose of this Engineering Practice is to provide data and guidelines to assist designing emergency ventilation, feeding, watering, and lighting systems for livestock and poultry.
