IEC/TC 64 - Electrical installations and protection against electric shock
To prepare International standards: concerning protection against electric shock arising from equipment, from installations and from systems without limit of voltage; for the design, erection foreseeable correct use, proper functioning and verification of all kind of electrical installations at supply voltage up to 1 kV AC. or 1,5 kV DC., except those installations covered by the following IEC committees: TC 9, TC 18, TC 44, TC 97, TC 99; in co-ordination with TC 99, concerning requirements additional to those of TC 99 for the design, erection and verification of electrical installations of buildings above 1 kV up to 35 kV. The object of the standards shall be: to lay down requirements for installation and co-ordination of electrical equipment to lay down basic safety requirements for protection against electric shock for use by technical committees to lay down safety requirements for protection against other hazards arising from the use of electricity (e.g. thermal effects, overcurrent, fault currents, voltage disturbances) to specify the operational characteristics and performance criteria necessary for selection of equipment for installation applications to give general guidance to IEC member countries that may have need of such requirements and to facilitate international exchanges that may be hampered by differences in national regulations. The standards will not cover individual items of electrical equipment other than their selection for use. Horizontal Safety Function: Protection against electric shock for equipment and installations without limitation of voltage. Group Safety Function: Protection against electric shock for low-voltage electrical installations. Horizontal Energy Efficiency Function: low-voltage electrical installations.
Installations électriques et protection contre les chocs électriques
Etablir les normes internationales: - relatives à la protection contre les chocs électriques survenant dans les matériels, les installations et les systèmes sans limite de tension, - pour la conception, la mise en oeuvre et la vérification de toutes sortes d'installations électriques ayant une tension d'alimentation inférieure ou égale à 1 kV en courant alternatif, à l'exception des installations qui font l'objet des domaines d'activité des comités de la CEI suivants : CE 9, CE 18, CE 44, CE 97, CE 99 - en coordination avec le CE 99, concernant les prescriptions complémentaires à celles du CE 99 pour la conception, la mise en oeuvre et la vérification des installations électriques de bâtiments ayant une tension comprise entre 1 kV et 35 kV. L'objet de ces normes doit être : - d'établir des prescriptions pour l'installation et la coordination des matériels électriques - d'établir des règles fondamentales de sécurité pour la protection contre les chocs électriques destinées aux comités d'études - d'établir des règles de sécurité pour la protection contre d'autres risques inhérents à l'utilisation de l'électricité - de donner des directives générales aux pays membres de la CEI pouvant avoir besoin de telles prescriptions - et de faciliter les échanges internationaux pouvant être empêchés par les divergences entre les règles nationales. Ces normes ne porteront pas sur les éléments individuels des matériels électriques à l'exception de leur choix pour utilisation. Fonction horizontale de sécurité : Protection contre les chocs électriques

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, non-governmental international organization that develops and publishes international standards. Founded in 1947 and headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, ISO brings together experts from 170+ member countries to share knowledge and develop voluntary, consensus-based standards that support innovation and provide solutions to global challenges.
A Technical Committee (TC) in ISO is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
