5、ion equipment. ii Rec. ITU-T K.51 (07/2009) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent

6、 organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes

7、the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards

8、are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommend

9、ation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are us

10、ed to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intelle

11、ctual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received

12、 notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database at http:/www.itu.int/ITU-T/ipr/.

15、provides guidance on safety criteria for telecommunication network infrastructure equipment. The requirements of this Recommendation have been developed in cooperation with IEC TC108. This Recommendation should be read together with IEC 60950-1. Rec. ITU-T K.51 (07/2009) 1 Recommendation ITU-T K.51

16、Safety criteria for telecommunication equipment 1 Scope 1.1 Equipment covered by this Recommendation This Recommendation is applicable to mains-powered, battery-powered or remotely-powered telecommunication network infrastructure equipment. This Recommendation specifies requirements intended to redu

17、ce risks of fire, electric shock, mechanical hazards or injury for the operator and layman who may come into contact with the equipment and, where specifically stated, for service personnel. This Recommendation is intended to reduce such risks with respect to installed equipment, whether it consists

18、 of a system of interconnected units or independent units, subject to installing, operating and maintaining the equipment in the manner prescribed by the manufacturer. Equipment complying with the relevant requirements in this Recommendation is considered suitable for use in a telecommunication netw

19、ork. However, this Recommendation does not include requirements for performance or functional characteristics of equipment. 1.2 Additional requirements Requirements additional to those specified in this Recommendation may be necessary for: equipment intended for operation in special environments, fo

20、r example, extremes of temperature; excessive dust, moisture or vibration; flammable gases; and corrosive or explosive atmospheres; equipment intended to be used in vehicles, on board ships or aircraft, in tropical countries, or at altitudes greater than 2000 m; equipment intended for use where ingr

21、ess of water is possible. NOTE Attention is drawn to the fact that authorities of some countries impose additional requirements. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendatio

22、n. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All Recommendations and other references are subject to revision; users of this Recommendation are therefore encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent edition of the Recommendations and other references lis

23、ted below. A list of the currently valid ITU-T Recommendations is regularly published. The reference to a document within this Recommendation does not give it, as a stand-alone document, the status of a Recommendation.

28、50-1 and IEC 60950-21. 5.2 Special requirements Remote feeding telecommunication circuits (RFT circuits) are defined in both ITU-T K.50 and IEC 60950-21. For RFT circuits the requirements in clauses 5.2.1, 5.2.2, 5.2.3 and 5.2.6 apply. The requirements for openings in telecommunication network infra

29、structure equipment are described in IEC 60950-1; however, the existing requirements do not restrict the entry of vermin or geckos. For enclosure openings, the requirements of clauses 5.2.5 and 5.2.6 apply. For the readers convenience, a cross-reference, between the requirements of this Recommendati

30、on and similar paragraphs of IEC 60950-1 is provided in Appendix I. 5.2.1 Protection from electric shock and energy hazards 5.2.1.1 Access to energized parts The equipment shall be so constructed that in user access areas, there is adequate protection against contact with bare parts of RFT circuits.

31、 5.2.1.2 Protection in service access areas Bare parts at hazardous voltages, except for RFT circuits, shall be located or guarded so that unintentional contact with such parts is unlikely during service operations involving other parts of the equipment. Bare parts at hazardous voltage, including RF

32、T circuits, shall be located or guarded so that accidental shorting to SELV circuits or to TNV circuits, for example by tools or test probes used by service personnel, is unlikely. 5.2.1.3 Protection in restricted access locations For equipment to be installed in a restricted access location, contac

33、t is permitted with the bare parts of RFT circuits by the test finger as defined in Figure 2A of IEC 60950-1. However, such parts shall be so located or guarded that unintentional contact is unlikely. Rec. ITU-T K.51 (07/2009) 3 5.2.2 Interconnection of equipment 5.2.2.1 General requirements Where e

34、quipment is intended to be electrically connected to other equipment, interconnection circuits shall be selected to provide continued conformance to the requirements of ITU-T K.50 for RFT circuits, after making the connections. NOTE 1 This is normally achieved by connecting RFT-C circuits to RFT-C c

35、ircuits and RFT-V circuits to RFT-V circuits. NOTE 2 It is permitted for an interconnecting cable to contain more than one type of circuit (e.g., SELV, limited current, TNV, ELV, RFT, or hazardous voltage) provided that they are separated as required by this Recommendation and IEC 60950-1. 5.2.2.2 T

36、ypes of interconnecting circuits An RFT can be an interconnection circuit. 5.2.2.3 Interconnection between RFT circuits The interconnection of one RFT-V circuit to another RFT-V circuit shall not result in exceeding the limits specified in Annex A of ITU-T K.50. The interconnection of one RFT-C circ

37、uit to another RFT-C circuit shall not result in exceeding the limits specified in Annex B of ITU-T K.50. 5.2.3 Protection of telecommunication network service personnel, and users of other equipment connected to the network, from hazards in the equipment 5.2.3.1 Protection from hazardous voltages C

38、ircuitry intended to be directly connected to a telecommunication network shall comply with the requirements of an SELV circuit, a TNV circuit or an RFT circuit. 5.2.4 Separation from other circuits and parts An RFT circuit shall be separated from: other RFT circuits by functional isolation; provide

39、d that neither circuit exceeds the limits of ITU-T K.50 if this isolation is short-circuited. Otherwise, the circuits shall be separated as if one were at a hazardous voltage; ELV circuits by supplementary insulation; earthed accessible parts, earthed SELV circuits and earthed TNV circuits by basic

40、insulation; unearthed accessible parts, unearthed SELV circuits, unearthed TNV circuits and circuits at hazardous voltages by one or both of the following: double or reinforced insulation; basic insulation, together with protective screening connected to the main protective earthing terminal. Compli

41、ance is checked by inspection and measurement. 5.2.5 Preventing vermin ingress Vermin ingress can have a number of adverse effects such as: Biting or stinging of service personnel; Causing faults in the equipment; Causing a fire in the equipment. 4 Rec. ITU-T K.51 (07/2009) Equipment enclosure holes

42、 or openings are restricted in size, by IEC 60950-1, to prevent hazardous contact with energized circuitry. This is verified by the use of a jointed test finger, pin and probe such as described in IEC 60950-1, Figures 2A, 2B and 2C, respectively. The test pin has the smallest diameter. An enclosure

43、opening smaller than 3 mm will prevent test pin entry. Circular or mesh openings of 3 mm or less will also prevent the entry of most common stinging insects such as: honey bees, bumble bees, yellow jackets, bald-faced hornets, European hornets, and some other solitary wasp species. Only very small i

44、nsects, such as 1 mm long fire ants, can still enter through a 3 mm hole and establish nests. Ground level and subterranean enclosures are particularly vulnerable to ant infestation. Mounting the enclosure above ground, on a pole or to the side of a building reduces the risk of infestation. Enclosur

45、es designed to prevent the entry of rain and dust further reduce the risk of ant infestation. 5.2.6 Installation instructions For equipment using an RFT circuit intended for interconnection with other equipment, the installation instructions shall specify all of the following: the effective capacita

46、nce of the equipment: between the connection points for the conductors of the telecommunication network; and between the connection point for one conductor of the telecommunication network and earth; that a system assessment shall be carried out to ensure that the effective capacitance of the total

47、system, including the capacitance of the equipment, does not exceed the values specified in Figure 1; that the voltage rating of the telecommunication network must be adequate for the normal RFT circuit voltage, together with any superimposed transient; RFT circuit voltage. For equipment with enclos

48、ure holes or openings, the installation instructions shall specify detailed installation requirements for preventing vermin or gecko entry, e.g., installation location, safeguard methods. Rec.
