STANDARDIZED SYMBOLS
Standardized symbols for electrical installation diagrams,
premises subject to special regulations.
The purpose of this document is to facilitate the
production of electrical installation diagrams.
In fact, these diagrams are required by standards
and regulations.
Let us quote:
The NF C 15-100 standard
(article 514.5 - Rules) applicable to all work on
installations powered by low voltage:
“The electrical installation must be the subject of
a diagram or table indicating
in particular: ÿ
the nature and constitution of the circuits (points of use
served, number and section of conductors, nature of the
pipes), ÿ the characteristics of the devices ensuring the
protection, sectioning
and control functions”.
The decree of November 14, 1988 (art. 55)
concerning the protection of workers against
electrical currents, in application of the Labor
Code:
“Establishment heads must keep a file available
to the Labor Inspector including: a schematic
plan…”
The decree of October 31, 1973 (art.25)
(1) applicable to establishments open to the
public:
“Plans must include schematic layouts of the
general high and low voltage protection and
electricity distribution bodies…
•
Said plans, various layouts and their presentation
must comply with the standards in force”.
Furthermore, when commissioning the electrical
installation of any new construction, the electrical
energy distributor must require a certificate of
compliance of the installation with the standards and
regulations in force, established by the installer and
endorsed by the CONSUAL.
However, for premises with special regulations, this
body can only obtain the certificate of conformity if it
is in possession of the inspection report and the plan
or diagram of the installation.
The symbols relating to the equipment and protection
devices indicated below are those which have been
adopted internationally and taken up by the Union
Technique de l'Electrcité in the standards of the NF
C 03-201 to 211 series.
