Introduction
Home and Building Electronic Systems (HBES) are intended to control devices on networks
supporting HBES Class 1 applications (simple control and command) according to CENELEC
R205-004.
HBES may be installed in homes and buildings together with other networks. In the past the
different networks have been installed independently, usually by different installers. Such
separated systems are only widely accepted by the user when the implementation is simple and
the cost of installation is low.
One of the primary functions of HBES is to control mains powered devices and therefore in
particular the cabling for HBES needs to coexist with the mains distribution network and needs to
follow the mains installation rules. Consequently, this document contains description of
coexistence of HBES Class 1 Twisted Pair and other networks concerning electrical safety and
EMC matters.
1 Scope
This standard provides common rules for the planning and engineering as well as installation of
HBES cabling systems taking into account the layout of the cable support, cables and connectors,
and the commissioning of HBES.
It applies to HBES networks installed according to the legal boundaries of the electrical utilities
additionally.
The assessment of an installation shall be based on this standard and CLC/TS 50090-9-2.
Rules for co-existence of HBES Class 1 cabling with mains power, and other networks (i.e. those
covered by EN 50173 series, EN 50174 series, EN 50083 series) are also specified.
This part of EN 50090 recommends one specific implementation but allows any solution which
supports the required HBES functionality without disturbing, or being disturbed by, other
application systems or networks.
This part of EN 50090 is also intended as a predisposition and pre-cabling guide-line for Twisted
Pair Class 1.
This document concerns only HBES Class 1 application supported by Twisted Pair (TP) media,
and coexistence with HBES Class 2 (Class 1 plus simple voice and stable picture transmission),
HBES Class 3 (Class 2 plus complex video transfers, e.g. CAT V, and IT) and power networks.
Network coexistence is ensured by infrastructure (see 5.2) and installation requirements.
This document applies specifically to the installation of copper cables.
Power line carrier, and optical fibre communication are outside the scope of this document.
The environmental conditions of EN 50090-2-2 apply to enclosure, connectors and generally to all
Twisted Pair HBES devices of the installation.
