scope:

This standard defines the general technical requirements of a Home and Building Electronic System (HBES) based on SELV or PELV. It concerns cabling and topology, electrical and functional safety, environmental conditions and behaviour in case of failures as well as specific HBES installation rules. The HBES includes also the interfaces of devices and equipment providing connection to the HBES. Parts of devices and equipment not providing HBES functionality are not included. For such parts the relevant product standards apply.
