European foreword
This document (EN 50549-2:2019) has been prepared by CLC/TC 8X “System aspects of electrical
energy supply”.
The following dates are fixed:
• latest date by which this document has to be (dop) 2019-08-01
implemented at national level by publication
of an identical national standard or by
endorsement
• latest date by which the national standards (dow) 2022-02-01
conflicting with this document have to
be withdrawn
This document supersedes CLC/TS 50549-2:2015.
This European Standard relates to both the RfG European Network Code and current technical market
needs. Its purpose is to give detailed description of functions to be implemented in products.
This European Standard is also intended to serve as a technical reference for the definition of national
requirements where the RfG European Network Code requirements allow flexible implementation. The
specified requirements are solely technical requirements; economic issues regarding, e.g. the bearing
of cost are not in the scope of this document.
CLC/TC 8X plans future standardization work in order to ensure the compatibility of this European
Standard (EN) with the evolution of the legal framework.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Introduction
1. Foreword
This Explanatory Note explains the rationale behind the content and structure of EN 50549-1 and EN
50549-2. Due to the unique relationship between COMMISSION REGULATION 2016/631 (RfG) and
the EN 50549 Series, and based on the comments received at the enquiry stage of FprEN 50549-1 and
FprEN 50549-2, TC8X WG03 decided to draft this explanatory note in order to provide national
committees and the wider public with an understanding of these rationale
2. Increased Scope of EN 50549 in relation to RfG
In the tradition of EN 50438, TC8X WG03 intended, in writing of FprEN 50549, to include all capabilities
of generating plants that are needed to operate these in parallel to distribution networks. This includes
issues necessary for a stable distribution network management as well as the management of the
interconnected system. As RfG is focused on the interconnected system, it is logical that, taking into
account further needs for distribution network management, further aspects are included.
3. Introduction of “Responsible party”
During the national implementation process of COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) 2016/631, different
types of responsible parties play a role in the refinement of the non-exhaustive requirements. In each
member country, the National Regulatory Authority approves this national implementation. Depending
on the national regulatory framework, this might result in a variety of documents: national laws, decrees
or regulations, technical specifications, or requirements of transmission and distribution system
operators. Therefore, as explained in the scope, EN 50549-1 and EN 50549-2 refer to the “responsible
party” where requirements have to be defined by an actor other than the DSO. However when a
generating plant is built and connected to the distribution network, typically the distribution system
operator provides the plant developer all the technical requirements to be fulfilled.
4. Use of terms
Terms and definitions are selected to achieve consistency with EN 60050, IEV (cf.
www.electropedia.org) and CENELEC terminology, recognizing that terms in COMMISSION
REGULATION (EU) 2016/631 may deviate.
5. Additional requirements for distribution system management
The following requirements are stated in EN 50549 for distribution system management reasons, which
might not be required in RfG or if required in RfG, are not required for type A. As Directive 714/2009
8(7) limits the scope of RfG to issues effecting the cross border trade of electricity, requirements included
solely for the need of distribution system management are considered beyond the scope of RfG.
– Connection scheme and Coordination of switch gear,
– Voltage operating range,
– Reactive power capability and control modes,
– Voltage related active power reduction,
– Interface protection including the detection of island situations,
– Connection and reconnection to the grid,
– Generation curtailment,
– Remote information exchange,
6. Additional requirements for stability of the interconnected system
Additionally, requirements relevant for the stability of the interconnected systems are included in case
of over voltage ride through (OVRT) as this is not dealt with in RfG. Due to the long duration of RfG
development and the fast development of decentralised generation in Europe robustness to voltage
swells is considered to be of high importance, but apparently could not be included into RfG.
As electrical energy storage system (EESS), are excluded from the scope of RfG, but are included in
the scope of the EN 50549 Series, EN 50549 also includes the further requirement of active power
frequency response to under frequency (LFSM-U) to electrical energy storage systems. This
requirement is considered of great importance in view of the expected fast increase of electrical energy
storage for the next years and is considered not to affect the cost of electrical energy storage systems
if considered during their design.
7. Details on the operation of the LFSM-O
During the enquiry stage, some comments reported that certain details in the chapter regarding the
operation of the LFSM-O (e.g. intentional delay, operation with deactivation threshold) were violating
the RfG. These topics have been further evaluated consulting the European Stakeholder Committee
(ESC-GC) and TC8X WG03 could not conclude in the same way. The fact that these operations are not
foreseen in the RfG is considered not sufficient to state any violation. Therefore these details are kept
with additional information on their use.
8. Implementation of UVRT and LFSM-U to avoid legal conflict with RfG
Under Voltage Ride Through (UVRT) requirements are defined in RfG for modules type B, type C and
type D. There is no mentioning of this topic for type A modules.
Nevertheless UVRT is seen as an important requirement in some member states even for small
generation modules like type A.
From a legal point of view there are two contradicting opinions on whether it is allowed or forbidden to
require UVRT for type A modules.
– Opinion 1: It can be required because the topic is not dealt with for type A modules.
– Option 2: It cannot be required because the topic UVRT is dealt within the RfG. Not mentioning UVRT
for type A in RfG therefore means that it cannot be required for type A modules.
As long as there is no clarification on this legal issue Cenelec does not have the possibility to require
UVRT for type A modules. This is the reason why in EN 50549-1 and 50549-2 the UVRT functionalities
for type A generating plants are not defined as requirements (shall) but as a recommendation (should).
This same explanation can be applied to the requirements regarding Limited Frequency Sensitive Mode
- Underfrequency (LFSM-U). In RfG, this LFSM-U is solely defined for type C and type D modules. In
EN 50549, LFSM-U is defined as a recommendation (should) for generating modules of type A and type
B. The sole exception is electrical energy storage systems having a requirement (shall) but these
systems are not within the scope of the RfG.
9. Annex H - Relationship between this European standard and the COMMISSION REGULATION
(EU) 2016/631.
Manufacturers of generating units and plants shall comply with all relevant EU Directives and
Regulations. For the specific function of connecting the generating plant with the electric system the
reference regulation is COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) 2016/631 (NC RfG).
Since the EN 50549-1 and −2 are covering all technical requirements for type A and type B generating
units, modules and plants, it is considered helpful to provide the information which clause of the standard
supports which article of the RfG in a structured informative annex within the standard.
For other EU Directives and Regulations (e.g. LVD, MD or GAR) it is a formal task given to CCMC to
include such an informative Annex ZZ based on a standardization request from the EU. It is finally
reviewed by the new approach consultant (NAC) for the relevant Directive or Regulation, prior to the
listing of the standard in the official journal of the EU (OJEU) providing then “presumption of conformity”.
This means that if a product is compliant with the standard, the Directive or Regulations is fulfilled too.
CLC TC 8X is fully aware, that this official procedure is not included in the RfG. Therefore CLC TC 8X
WG3 drafted Annex H. In Annex H the relationship between the clauses and the articles is shown. It is
considered, that generating plants compliant with the clauses of the standards are also compliant with
the articles in the RfG. Of course, this does not provide “presumption of conformity” as a listed standard
in the OJEU would provide. Nevertheless it will be helpful for the industry when performing the conformity
assessment against RfG.
1 Scope
This document specifies the technical requirements for the protection functions and the operational
capabilities for generating plants, intended to operate in parallel with MV distribution networks.
For practical reasons this document refers to the responsible party where requirements have to be
defined by an actor other than the DSO, e.g. TSO, member state, regulatory authorities according to the
legal framework. Typically the DSO will inform the producer about these requirements.
NOTE 1 This includes European network codes and their national implementation, as well as additional national
regulations.
NOTE 2 Additional national requirements especially for the connection to the distribution network and the
operation of the generating plant may apply.
The requirements of this document apply, irrespective of the kind of energy source and irrespective of
the presence of loads in the producer’s network, to generating plants, generating modules, electrical
machinery and electronic equipment that meet all of the following conditions:
– converting any energy source into AC electricity;
– generating modules capacity of type B or smaller according to COMMISSION REGULATION (EU)
2016/631 while considering national implementation for the decision regarding power limits
between A and B types and B and C types;
– connected to and operated in parallel with an AC MV distribution network.
NOTE 3 Generating plants connected to a LV distribution network fall into the scope of EN 50549-1.
NOTE 4 Electrical energy storage systems (EESS) in meeting the conditions above are included
If generating modules of different type (A or B) are combined in one plant, different requirements apply
for the different modules based on the type of each module.
EXAMPLE: If a generating plant consists of multiple generating modules (see 3.2.1), according to
COMMISSION REGLUATION (EU) 2016/631 the situation might occur, that some generating modules
are of type A and some are of type B.
Unless specified otherwise by the DSO and the responsible party, generating plants with a maximum
apparent power up to 150 kVA can, as alternative to the requirements of this document, comply with
EN 50549-1. A different threshold may be defined by the DSO and the responsible party.
This document recognizes the existence of specific technical requirements (e.g. grid codes) of the DSO
or another responsible party within a member state and these must be complied with.
Excluded from the scope are:
• the selection and evaluation of the point of connection;
• power system impact assessment e.g. assessment of effects on power quality, local voltage
increase, impact on line protections operation;
• connection assessment, the set of technical verifications made as part of the planning of the
connection;
• island operation of generating plants, both intentional and unintentional, where no part of the
distribution network is involved;
• four-quadrant rectifier of drives feeding breaking energy back into the distribution network for limited
duration with no internal source of primary energy;
• uninterruptible power supply with duration of parallel operation limited to 100 ms;
NOTE 5 Parallel operation due to maintenance of uninterruptible power supply units is not seen as part of normal
UPS operation and therefore not considered in this EN.
• requirements for the safety of personnel as they are already adequately covered by existing
European Standards.
• the connection of a generating unit, module or plant into a DC network

Evropski predgovor
Ta dokument (EN 50549-2:2019) je pripravil tehnični odbor CLC/TC 8X "Sistemski vidiki oskrbe z
električno energijo".
Določena sta naslednja datuma:

– zadnji datum, do katerega mora dobiti ta dokument (dop) 2019-08-01
status nacionalnega standarda z objavo istovetnega
besedila ali z razglasitvijo
– zadnji datum, do katerega je treba razveljaviti (dow) 2022-02-01
nacionalne standarde, ki so v nasprotju s tem
dokumentom
Ta dokument nadomešča CLC/TS 50549-2:2015.

Ta evropski standard se nanaša tako na evropski omrežni kodeks RfG kot na trenutne tehnične potrebe
trga. Njegov namen je podrobno opisati funkcije, ki jih je treba uveljaviti pri izdelkih.

Ta evropski standard naj bi služil tudi kot tehnična referenca za opredelitev nacionalnih zahtev, kadar
zahteve evropskega omrežnega kodeksa RfG omogočajo prilagodljivo izvajanje. Navedene zahteve so
izključno tehnične zahteve; ekonomska vprašanja v zvezi z npr. stroški niso vključena v področje
uporabe tega dokumenta.
Tehnični odbor CLC/TC 8X načrtuje nadaljevanje dela na področju standardizacije, da bi zagotovil
združljivost tega evropskega standarda (EN) z razvojem pravnega okvira.

Opozoriti je treba na možnost, da so nekateri elementi tega dokumenta lahko predmet patentnih pravic.
IEC ne prevzema odgovornosti za prepoznavanje nobene ali vseh takih patentnih pravic.

SIST EN 50549-2 : 2019
European foreword
This document (EN 50549-2:2019) has been prepared by CLC/TC 8X "System aspects of electrical energy
supply".
The following dates are fixed:
– latest date by which this document has to be (dop) 2019-08-01
implemented at national level by publication of an
identical national standard or by endorsement
– latest date by which the national standards
(dow) 2022-02-01
conflicting with this document have to be withdrawn

This document supersedes CLC/TS 50549-2:2015.

This European Standard relates to both the RfG European Network Code and current technical market
needs. Its purpose is to give detailed description of functions to be implemented in products.

This European Standard is also intended to serve as a technical reference for the definition of national
requirements where the RfG European Network Code requirements allow flexible implementation. The
specified requirements are solely technical requirements; economic issues regarding, e.g. the bearing
of cost are not in the scope of this document.

CLC/TC 8X plans future standardization work in order to ensure the compatibility of this European
Standard (EN) with the evolution of the legal framework.

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

Uvod
1) Predgovor
Ta razlagalna opomba pojasnjuje utemeljitev vsebine in strukture EN 50549-1 in prEN 50549-2.
Zaradi edinstvenega odnosa med Uredbo Komisije 2016/631 (RfG) in skupino standardov EN
50549 ter na podlagi pripomb, prejetih na stopnji poizvedbe FprEN 50549-1 in FprEN 50549-2, se
je TC 8X WG 03 odločil zasnovati to pojasnilo, da bi nacionalnim odborom in širši javnosti zagotovil
razumevanje teh razlogov.
2) Razširjeno področje uporabe EN 50549 glede na RfG

V skladu s standardom EN 50438 je TC 8X WG 03 nameraval pri pisanju prEN 50549 vključiti vanj
vse zmogljivosti proizvodnih postrojev, ki so potrebne za njihovo delovanje vzporedno z
distribucijskimi omrežji. To vključuje vprašanja, potrebna za stabilno upravljanje distribucijskega
omrežja in tudi za upravljanje sistema interkonekcije. Ker je RfG osredotočen na sistem
interkonekcije, je logično, da se ob upoštevanju nadaljnjih potreb po upravljanju distribucijskega
omrežja vključijo še drugi vidiki.

3) Uvedba "odgovorne stranke"
Med nacionalnim procesom izvajanja Uredbe Komisije (EU) 2016/631 imajo vlogo pri
izpopolnjevanju neizčrpnih zahtev različne vrste odgovornih strank. V vsaki državi članici nacionalni
regulativni organ odobri to nacionalno izvajanje. Glede na nacionalni regulativni okvir bi na tej
podlagi tako lahko nastali različni dokumenti: nacionalni zakoni, uredbe ali predpisi, tehnične
specifikacije ali zahteve operaterjev prenosnih in distribucijskih sistemov. Zato se, kot je razloženo
v področju uporabe, EN 50549-1 in EN 50549-2 nanašata na "odgovorno stranko", kjer mora
zahteve opredeliti drug deležnik in ne operater distribucijskega sistema). Ko pa je proizvodni postroj
(elektrarna) zgrajen in priključen na distribucijsko omrežje, navadno operater distribucijskega
sistema priskrbi razvijalcu postroja vse tehnične zahteve, ki jih je treba izpolniti.

4) Uporaba izrazov
Izrazi in definicije so izbrani tako, da so skladni z EN 60050, IEV (prim. www.electropedia.org) in
terminologijo CENELEC, ob zavedanju, da se izrazi v Uredbi Komisije (EU) 2016/631 lahko
razlikujejo.
5) Dodatne zahteve za upravljanje distribucijskega sistema

V EN 50549 so zaradi razlogov pri upravljanju distribucijskega sistema navedene naslednje
zahteve, ki morda niso potrebne v RfG oziroma, če so potrebne v RfG, niso potrebne za tip A. Ker
Direktiva 714/2009 8(7) omejuje področje uporabe RfG na vprašanja pri čezmejni trgovini z
električno energijo, se zahteve, vključene izključno za potrebe upravljanja distribucijskega sistema,
obravnavajo zunaj področja uporabe RfG:

– shema priključitve in usklajevanje stikalne opreme,

– napetostno območje delovanja,

– zmogljivost jalove moči in načini nadzora,

– zmanjšanje delovne moči glede na napetost,

– zaščita na ločilnem mestu, vključno z odkrivanjem otočnih situacij,

– priključitev in ponovni vklop omrežja,

– zmanjšanje proizvodnje,
– izmenjava informacij na daljavo

SIST EN 50549-2 : 2019
Introduction
1) Foreword
This Explanatory Note explains the rationale behind the content and structure of EN 50549-1 and
EN 50549-2. Due to the unique relationship between COMMISSION REGULATION 2016/631
(RfG) and the EN 50549 Series, and based on the comments received at the enquiry stage of
FprEN 50549-1 and FprEN 50549-2, TC8X WG03 decided to draft this explanatory note in order to
provide national committees and the wider public with an understanding of these rationale

2) Increased Scope of EN 50549 in relation to RfG

In the tradition of EN 50438, TC8X WG03 intended, in writing of FprEN 50549, to include all
capabilities of generating plants that are needed to operate these in parallel to distribution networks.
This includes issues necessary for a stable distribution network management as well as the
management of the interconnected system. As RfG is focused on the interconnected system, it is
logical that, taking into account further needs for distribution network management, further aspects
are included.
3) Introduction of "Responsible party"

During the national implementation process of COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) 2016/631,
different types of responsible parties play a role in the refinement of the non-exhaustive
requirements. In each member country, the National Regulatory Authority approves this national
implementation. Depending on the national regulatory framework, this might result in a variety of
documents: national laws, decrees or regulations, technical specifications, or requirements of
transmission and distribution system operators. Therefore, as explained in the scope, EN 50549-1
and EN 50549-2 refer to the "responsible party" where requirements have to be defined by an actor
other than the DSO. However when a generating plant is built and connected to the distribution
network, typically the distribution system operator provides the plant developer all the technical
requirements to be fulfilled.
4) Use of terms
Terms and definitions are selected to achieve consistency with EN 60050, IEV (cf.
www.electropedia.org) and CENELEC terminology, recognizing that terms in COMMISSION
REGULATION (EU) 2016/631 may deviate.

5) Additional requirements for distribution system management

The following requirements are stated in EN 50549 for distribution system management reasons,
which might not be required in RfG or if required in RfG, are not required for type A. As Directive
714/2009 8(7) limits the scope of RfG to issues effecting the cross border trade of electricity,
requirements included solely for the need of distribution system management are considered
beyond the scope of RfG.
– Connection scheme and Coordination of switch gear,

– Voltage operating range,
– Reactive power capability and control modes,

– Voltage related active power reduction,

– Interface protection including the detection of island situations,

– Connection and reconnection to the grid,

– Generation curtailment,
– Remote information exchange,

SIST EN 50549-2 : 2019
6) Dodatne zahteve za stabilnost sistema interkonekcije

Dodatno so vključene zahteve za stabilnost sistema interkonekcije v primeru obratovanja v stanju
nadnapetosti (OVRT), saj tega RfG ne obravnava. Zaradi dolgotrajnega razvoja RfG in hitrega
razvoja razpršene proizvodnje v Evropi je odpornost proti porastom napetosti zelo pomembna,
vendar je očitno ni bilo mogoče vključiti v RfG.

Ker so sistemi za shranjevanje električne energije (EESS) izključeni iz področja uporabe RfG,
vendar so vključeni v področje uporabe skupine standardov EN 50549, vključuje EN 50549 tudi
dodatno zahtevo po odzivanju delovne moči omrežne frekvence na podfrekvenco (LFSM-U)
sistemov za shranjevanje električne energije. Ta zahteva je zelo pomembna glede na pričakovano
hitro rast shranjevanja električne energije v naslednjih letih in se šteje, da ne bo vplivala na stroške
sistemov za shranjevanje električne energije, če bo upoštevana že pri njihovi zasnovi.

7) Podrobnosti o delovanju LFSM-O

V fazi poizvedovanja so nekateri komentarji poročali, da nekatere podrobnosti v poglavju o
delovanju LFSM-O (npr. namerna zamuda, obratovanje z dezaktivacijskim pragom) kršijo RfG. Te
teme so bile dodatno ovrednotene v posvetovanju z Evropskim odborom deležnikov (ESC-GC) in
delovna skupina TC 8X WG 03 ni mogla sklepati na enak način. Dejstvo, da te operacije v RfG niso
predvidene, se ne šteje za zadostnega za navedbo katerekoli kršitve. Zato se ti podatki hranijo z
dodatnimi informacijami o njihovi uporabi.

8) Izvajanje UVRT in LFSM-U za izogibanje pravnemu sporu z RfG

Zahteve za podnapetostno obratovanje (UVRT) so opredeljene v RfG za module tipa B, tipa C in
tipa D. Za module tipa A se ta tema ne omenja.

Kljub temu se UVRT v nekaterih državah članicah obravnava kot pomembna zahteva tudi pri
majhnih proizvodnih modulih (malih elektrarnah), kot je tip A.

S pravnega vidika obstajata dve nasprotujoči si mnenji o tem, ali je dovoljeno ali prepovedano
zahtevati UVRT za module tipa A:

– mnenje 1: se lahko zahteva, ker tema ni obravnavana za module tipa A;

– mnenje 2: ni mogoče zahtevati, ker se tema UVRT obravnava v okviru RfG. Poleg tega UVRT
za tip A v RfG zato pomeni, da ga za module tipa A ni mogoče zahtevati.

Dokler ni pojasnil glede tega pravnega vprašanja, CENELEC nima možnosti zahtevati UVRT za
module tipa A. To je razlog, zakaj v EN 50549-1 in 50549-2 funkcionalnosti UVRT za proizvodne
postroje tipa A niso opredeljene kot zahteve (morajo), ampak kot priporočila (naj).

Enako razlago je mogoče uporabiti za zahteve, ki se nanašajo na omejeni frekvenčno občutljivi
način – podfrekvenco (LFSM-U). V RfG je ta LFSM-U določen izključno za module tipa C in tipa D.
V EN 50549 je LFSM-U opredeljen kot priporočilo (naj) za proizvodne module tipa A in tipa B. Edina
izjema so sistemi za shranjevanje električne energije, za katere velja zahteva (morajo), vendar ti
sistemi ne spadajo v področje uporabe RfG.

9) Dodatek H – Razmerje med tem evropskim standardom in Uredbo Komisije (EU) 2016/631

Proizvajalci proizvodnih enot in postrojev morajo upoštevati vse ustrezne direktive in predpise EU.
Za posebno funkcijo povezovanja proizvodnega postroja z električnim sistemom je referenčni
predpis Uredba Komisije (EU) 2016/631 (NC RfG).

SIST EN 50549-2 : 2019
6) Additional requirements for stability of the interconnected system

Additionally, requirements relevant for the stability of the interconnected systems are included in
case of over voltage ride through (OVRT) as this is not dealt with in RfG. Due to the long duration
of RfG development and the fast development of decentralised generation in Europe robustness to
voltage swells is considered to be of high importance, but apparently could not be included into
RfG.
As electrical energy storage system (EESS), are excluded from the scope of RfG, but are included
in the scope of the EN 50549 Series, EN 50549 also includes the further requirement of active
power frequency response to under frequency (LFSM-U) to electrical energy storage systems. This
requirement is considered of great importance in view of the expected fast increase of electrical
energy storage for the next years and is considered not to affect the cost of electrical energy storage
systems if considered during their design.

7) Details on the operation of the LFSM-O

During the enquiry stage, some comments reported that certain details in the chapter regarding the
operation of the LFSM-O (e.g. intentional delay, operation with deactivation threshold) were
violating the RfG. These topics have been further evaluated consulting the European Stakeholder
Committee (ESC-GC) and TC8X WG03 could not conclude in the same way. The fact that these
operations are not foreseen in the RfG is considered not sufficient to state any violation. Therefore
these details are kept with additional information on their use.

8) Implementation of UVRT and LFSM-U to avoid legal conflict with RfG

Under Voltage Ride Through (UVRT) requirements are defined in RfG for modules type B, type C
and type D. There is no mentioning of this topic for type A modules.

Nevertheless UVRT is seen as an important requirement in some member states even for small
generation modules like type A.

From a legal point of view there are two contradicting opinions on whether it is allowed or forbidden
to require UVRT for type A modules.

– Opinion 1: It can be required because the topic is not dealt with for type A modules.

– Option 2: It cannot be required because the topic UVRT is dealt within the RfG. Not mentioning
UVRT for type A in RfG therefore means that it cannot be required for type A modules.

As long as there is no clarification on this legal issue CENELEC does not have the possibility to
require UVRT for type A modules. This is the reason why in EN 50549-1 and 50549-2 the UVRT
functionalities for type A generating plants are not defined as requirements (shall) but as a
recommendation (should).
This same explanation can be applied to the requirements regarding Limited Frequency Sensitive
Mode - Underfrequency (LFSM-U). In RfG, this LFSM-U is solely defined for type C and type D
modules. In EN 50549, LFSM-U is defined as a recommendation (should) for generating modules
of type A and type B. The sole exception is electrical energy storage systems having a requirement
(shall) but these systems are not within the scope of the RfG.

9) Annex H - Relationship between this European standard and the COMMISSION
REGULATION (EU) 2016/631.
Manufacturers of generating units and plants shall comply with all relevant EU Directives and
Regulations. For the specific function of connecting the generating plant with the electric system
the reference regulation is COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) 2016/631 (NC RfG).

SIST EN 50549-2 : 2019
Ker standarda EN 50549-1 in -2 zajemata vse tehnične zahteve za proizvodne enote, module in
postroje tipov A in B, se šteje, da je koristno zagotoviti informacije, katera določba standarda
podpira kateri člen RfG v strukturiranem informativnem dodatku v okviru standarda.
