Scope: This part of IEC 61892 is applicable to system design of electrical installations and equipment in mobile and fixed offshore units including pipeline, pumping or "pigging" stations, compressor stations and single buoy moorings, used in the offshore petroleum industry for drilling, production, accommodation, processing, storage and offloading purposes.
It applies to all installations, whether permanent, temporary, transportable or hand-held, to AC installations and DC installations, without any voltage level limitation. Referenced equipment standards may give voltage level limitations.
This document specifies requirements such as those concerning- sources of electrical power for manned and unmanned units,- system earthing, both for low-voltage and high-voltage installations,- interface for electric transmission systems with power supplied from shore, between interconnected offshore units, and with power supplied by offshore units to subsea installations,- distribution systems,- cables and wiring systems,- system studies and calculations,- protection against electrical faults,- lighting,- energy control, monitoring and alarm systems, and- turret/swivel.
This document gives information and guidance on topics such as- applicable examples of HVDC VSC technology, and- guidelines for illumination level.
This document does not apply to- fixed equipment for medical purposes,- electrical installations of tankers, and- control of ignition sources other than those created by electrical equipment.
NOTE 1 For medical rooms, IEC 60364-7-710 provides specific requirements. Requirements for tankers are given in IEC 60092-502.
NOTE 2 Guidance on protection of non-electrical equipment can be found in ISO 80079-36, ISO 80079-37 and IMO 2009 MODU Code, 6.7.Cross References:IEC 61892-1:2019IEC 62040-3:2011IEC 61892-6:2019IEC 61892-3:2019IEC 60038:2009BS IEC 61892-3:2019BS IEC 61892-6:2019IEC 60947-2:2016IEC 61892-4:2019BS IEC 61892-1:2019IEC 60092-504:2016IEC 60331-21IEC 62271-100IEC 62040-1IEC 60331-1IEC 60331-2IEC 61363-1IEC 60947-4-2IEC 60447IEC 62040-2IEC 61131-1IEC TR 60909-1IEC 61131-2IEC 60909-0IEC 60533IEC 61892-7IEEE 1012IEC TS 61936-2IEC TS 61836IEC TR 61131-4ISO/IEC/IEEE 12207ISO 13849ISO 80079-37EN 1838IEC 62682ISO 80079-36IEC 61892-5ISO 3046-1IEC 61000-2-4AWEA 6.1:1989NFPA 70EIEC 60529IEC 62381IEC 61660-1IEC 61400IEC 61936-1IEEE 1584:2002DNV-OS-D203AWEA 3.1:1988IEC 60364-7-710IEC 60092-502IEC 60050IEC 62271-200EN 12464-2IEC 61180ISO 8468NFPA 20IEC 60073ISO 13702IEC 60617ISO 11064IEC 60904IEC 62443-2-1:2010IEC 60092-350:2014NORSOK S-002:2004 (Rev4)IEC 60364-4-41:2005IEC 60079-7:2015IEC 60364-4-43:2008IEC 60364-1:2005All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
