This standard applies to electrical equipment, parts of electrical equipment and Ex components with:- a rated supply current less than or equal to 16 A;- a rated supply voltage less than or equal to 1 000 V;- a rated power consumption less than or equal to 1 000 W. 1DV.2 Addition of 1DV.2.1 and 1DV.2.2

1DV.2.1 The U.S. version of IEC 60079-5 does not include requirements for Group I electrical apparatus. Requirements for Group I electrical apparatus included in this document are to be considered omitted in all instances where they appear.
