This standard provides specifications for Direct Current (DC) -based installations to address requirements given in Tier 2 and Tier 3 of the Multi-Tier framework. The Multi-Tier framework is discussed in detail in the Energy Sector Management Assistance Program (ESMAP) report published by the World Bank. This standard provides installation rules for basic electricity supply from a renewable source and is meant to be used in areas that are not connected to the AC public distribution network. The standard advocates use of a safety extra low voltage (SELV) that can be safer to operate under normal, dry conditions. Circuit/branch current is limited to make it more difficult for an arc to propagate. This approach delivers power access possible without needing special parts. The resultant installation can use wiring that is similar to that used in an AC system in a cost-effective and scalable manner.

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
