Annex ZB
(informative)

A-deviations
A-deviation: National deviation due to regulations, the alteration of which is for the time being outside
the competence of the CENELEC national member.

This European Standard does not fall under any Directive of the EU.

In the relevant CEN-CENELEC countries, these A-deviations are valid instead of the provisions of the
European Standard until they have been removed.

Clause Deviation
9 ZB.1 France
(Arrêté interministériel, 2 April 1991)
This regulation specifies, among many other parameters, the minimum distance between
electric supply wires (isolated and not isolated, low-voltage and high-voltage) and any
other installation (e.g. buildings, antennas, telecommunication lines, etc.).
The main clauses of this regulation which concern the cable networks are Clauses 12, 25,
26, 33, 33bis, 38, 49, 51, 52 and 63.
Clause 9 of this standard specifies distances of 10 mm (indoors) and 20 mm (outdoors)
and this is not sufficient to cover overhead cables. As an example, the minimum distance
between an overhead telecommunication line and an overhead low-voltage (up to 1 kV)
electricity supply line shall be 1 m (Clause 33). This distance may be reduced under
specified conditions (Clauses 51, 52 and 63).
This regulation specifies also the minimum distance from high-voltage lines. This distance
varies from 1 m to 4 m depending on the voltage, on the isolation of the cable and on the
location (built-up area or not) (Clauses 33 and 63)
10.1 ZB.2 United Kingdom
In the UK the use of fully isolated system outlets is obligatory.

11
ZB.3 France
(NF C 15100 - Décret n° 84-74 du 26 janvier 1984 modifié)

The use of TT distribution systems with 300 mA differential switching is not compatible
with the interconnection of the earthing of two different buildings.

Special national conditions
Special national condition: National characteristic or practice that cannot be changed even over a
long period, e.g. climatic conditions, electrical earthing conditions.

NOTE  If it affects harmonization, it forms part of the European Standard.

For the countries in which the relevant special national conditions apply these provisions are
normative, for other countries they are informative.

Clause Special National Condition
ZC.1 Norway
6.2
The following parts of the standard are not applicable due to Special National Conditions:
• For new and rebuilt coaxial electronic communication networks the outer
conductor of the coaxial cable leading into a building shall be galvanic and
isolated from the outer conductor of the coaxial cable inside the building;
• Examples of installations inside buildings described in 6.2g, 6.2i, 6.2l and shown in
Figure 2, Figure 4, Figure 5 and Figure 7 shall be equipped with a galvanic isolator
separating local earth from the cable network distribution lines;
• Galvanic isolators shall withstand the following requirements:
• Applying a 50 Hz AC voltage of 300 V RMS between the input and the output of
the outer conductor of the galvanic isolator for a period of not less than 20 min, the
leakage current shall not exceed 8 mA . Applying a continues DC voltage of 2 120 V
RMS
between the input and the output of the outer conductor of the galvanic isolator for a
period of not less than 1 min, the leakage current shall not exceed 0,7 mA.
It shall not be possible to touch metallic parts of the galvanic isolator when connected.
ZC.2 Norway
6.3

ZC.2.1 Justification
In most parts of Norway, the AC mains power are built as an IT- or TT-network with a line-
to-line voltage of 230 V (see Figure ZC.1).
These types of networks have no N-conductor, and the AC mains power is supplied to the
equipment from two of the three line conductors (IEC 60950-1:2005, Annex V).

For a cable network covering an area with this type of power supply networks, special
initiative should be taken to ensure that safety in the cable network is maintained. The
following equipotential bonding arrangements described will provide necessary safety in
such a network.
ZC.2.2 Equipotential bonding mechanism for cable networks
ZC.2.2.1 Installations in the vicinity of transformer stations
Any earth electrode in a cable network shall preferably be located at a minimum distance of
20 m from the nearest earth electrode in a high-power transformer station (high to mains
voltage) (see Figure ZC.2 and ITU-T K.8 or EN 50174-3).
If the above-mentioned distance is less than 20 m, all equipment in the cable network shall
be electrically isolated from local earth by mounting the equipment within a non-metallic
enclosure, as shown in Figure ZC.3. Mains powered equipment with local power feeding
should not be used in this case.
Before any work on the installation is started, measurements shall be carried out to reveal if
there are any hazardous voltages between local earth and the earth for the cable network.
The safety sign "Warning about hazardous electrical voltage" according to sign 7.4
of ISO 3864-1:2002 shall be attached to the non-metallic enclosure.
ZC.2.2.2 Cabinets for cable networks located near cabinets/
installations for mains
Cabinets for cable networks placed together with cabinets for mains power distributions
should preferably be placed at a minimum of 2 m apart. If the distance is closer than 2 m, a
common earth electrode between the cabinets shall be used. Examples of such installations
are shown in Figure ZC.4, Figure ZC.5, Figure ZC.6 and Figure ZC.7.

A voltage dependent protective device is recommended in order to protect the galvanic
isolator from transient voltages.
The amplifier shall be electrically isolated from the local electrical earth. In case the amplifier
is mounted close to either local electrical earth or installations connected to local electrical
earth, the amplifier shall be placed in such a way that it is not possible to physically touch
both the amplifier and the installation without having to remove a cover or other safety
arrangements. The covers and amplifiers shall be labelled with the safety sign given under
ZC.2.2.1. The covers used shall be designed in such a way that they can only be removed
using a key or a special tool.
ZC.2.4 Use of voltage dependent protective device in a cable network
Network, property and health shall be protected against failure in isolation between
infrastructures with different levels of voltage and other unwanted high voltages caused by
any kind of high voltage distribution networks or atmospheric discharges.
Depending on the voltages time span, all voltages with local earth as a reference shall be
limited according to following values:
0 to 200 ms  1 030 V
201 to 350 ms    780 V
351 to 500 ms    650 V
501 to 1 000 ms   430 V

5 001 to 10 000 ms   150 V
More than 10 000 ms    60 V
In Norway, network installations with no mains supplied equipment are usually installed
isolated from local earth due to difficult ground conditions. When calculations show that the
voltage level will rise above 650 V, measures must be taken to reduce the voltage level.
This can be done by connecting a voltage dependent device between the network
installation and local earth. The voltage dependent device must not connect the installations
to local earth in case of a short circuit in mains power.
This implies a safe threshold voltage of 420 V.
Examples of protections using a voltage depending device are shown in Figure 3 and
Figure ZC.9.
