IEC 63152:2020从提供电力的角度建立了概念并给出了指导方针，以帮助在灾难发生时维持各种城市服务。它概述了多个城市服务如何通过电力连续性计划和电力连续性系统进行合作和延续的基本概念。它还规定了建立这些的方法和手段。 本文件的用户假设为城市开发商、城市运营商、设备制造商、基本服务提供商和灾害管理人员。 城市面临着许多潜在的威胁，这些威胁影响了城市服务的连续性。因此，非常需要建立安全可靠的社会，在这种社会中，对公民的城市服务的负面影响最小化，在紧急时期，他们可以持续获得城市服务。毫无疑问，在现代城市中，电力在维持城市服务方面发挥着至关重要的作用。

IEC 63152:2020 establishes concepts and gives guidelines to help sustain a variety of city services on the occasion of a disaster from the perspective of providing electricity. It outlines the basic concepts on how multiple city services can cooperate and continue by electricity continuity plan(s) and electricity continuity system(s). It also specifies methods and means to establish these.
The users of this document are assumed to be city developers, city operators, equipment manufacturers, essential service providers and disaster management personnel.
Cities are facing many kinds of potential threats which affect the continuity of city services. There exists, therefore, a great need to establish safe and secure societies in which negative impacts on city services to the citizens are minimized and city services are continuously available to them during a period of emergency. There is no doubt that, in modern cities, electricity plays a critical role in maintaining city services.
