2 The Belgian NC has prepared this Part 2-2 (EN 50341-2-2) listing the Belgian National Normative
Aspects (NNA), under its sole responsibility, and duly passed it through the CENELEC and
CLC/TC11 procedures.
NOTE The Belgian NC also takes sole responsibility for the technically correct co-ordination of this NNA with
EN 50341-1. It has performed the necessary checks in the frame of quality assurance/control.
However, it is noted that this quality control has been made in the framework of the general
responsibility of a standards committee under the national laws/regulations.
3 This NNA is normative in Belgium and informative for other countries.
4 This NNA has to be read in conjunction with Part 1 (EN 50341-1). All clause numbers used in this
NNA correspond to those of Part 1. Specific subclauses, which are prefixed “BE”, are to be read as
amendments to the relevant text in Part 1. Any necessary clarification regarding the application of
this NNA in conjunction with Part 1 shall be referred to the Belgian NC who will, in co-operation
with CLC/TC11, clarify the requirements.
Where no reference is made in this NNA to a specific subclause, then Part 1 applies.
5 In case of “boxed values” defined in Part 1, amended values (if any), which are defined in this NNA
shall be taken into account in Belgium.
However, any boxed value, whether in Part 1 or this NNA, shall not be amended in the direction of
greater risk in a Project Specification.
6 The national Belgian standards/regulations related to overhead electrical lines exceeding 1 kV (AC)
are listed in subclauses 2.1/BE.1 and BE.2.
Only significant extracts and summaries of the Belgian national regulations are presented in the A-
deviations. They must be read in conjunction with the Belgian national regulations identified in
2.1/BE.1 which is in any case the relevant document.
NOTE All national standards referred to in this NNA will be replaced by the relevant European Standards as
soon as they become available and are declared by the Belgian NC to be applicable and thus
reported to the secretary of CLC/TC11.
7 Supplementary requirements in this NNA in addition to the part 1 are indicated by preceding the
corresponding paragraphs by (snc) or (ncpt).
Paragraphs preceded by (A-dev) are required by national law: i.e. the General Regulations of the
Electrical Installations (GREI).

1 Scope
1.1 General
BE.1 Scope of Part 1 and Part 2-2
(ncpt) Part 1 and the present Part 2-2 are only applicable to completely new or completely replaced
overhead lines between two points, A and B, as well as to new supports on new foundations
with nominal voltages above AC 50 kV.
(A-dev) Overhead lines or supports with nominal voltages exceeding AC 1 kV up to and including AC
50 kV are treated as a high voltage of the first category in the General Regulations of the
Electrical Installations (GREI) and follow completely the GREI for their dimensioning.
1.2 Field of application
(ncpt) BE.1 Application to telecommunication equipment
Part 1 and this NNA apply to telecommunication equipment mounted on the new supports
(e.g. dishes, antennas), particularly with respect to wind assumptions.
2 Normative references, definitions and symbols
2.1 Normative references
(A-dev) BE.1 National regulations
The General Regulations of the Electrical Installations (GREI) are given by the Belgian Royal
Decree of March 1981 (latest issue) which has been published in the Belgian Statute Book of
29 April 1981.
The installations for transmission and distribution of electrical energy are covered in Book 3
after the restructuring of the GREI in 2019. The articles as mentioned in this NNA must
therefore be translated to corresponding sections to find the relevant extracts.

(ncpt) BE.1 Reliability of overhead lines
In Belgium overhead lines shall be designed such that they meet the requirements of the
reliability level 2 unless otherwise defined in the Project Specification.
There is an exception for 70 kV concrete poles where the reliability level 1 applies.
The Project Specification shall specify whether the reliability level 3 has to be applied in case
of overhead lines with very high consequences of failure (e.g. lines near Seveso companies,
lines connecting a critical power plant).
(ncpt) BE.2 Reliability of temporary lines/towers
The minimum return periods of the climatic actions to be taken into account for the design of
temporary lines/towers installed for a period of less than one year are given in Table 3/BE.1.

(ncpt) BE.3 Load cases for temporary lines/towers
The standard load cases based on the reliability level 3 (see also Table 4/BE.4) apply.
Only in the normal and extreme wind load case, the basic wind velocity shall be multiplied by
the probability factor c in function of the reduced return period according to Table 3/BE.2.

When the temporary line/tower is installed outside the months November, December,
January, February and March, no wind & ice and winter loading have to be considered.
(ncpt) BE.4 Application of seasonal coefficient for temporary lines/towers
For temporary lines/towers installed less than 3 months, the wind loads (except for the
reduced wind) may be reduced by the seasonal coefficient c according to Table 3/BE.3.

The highest value of c of the considered months shall be used.
