Publication of the guide "Electrical Installations in Buildings Used for Professional and Public Access"

This practical guide is aimed at electricians but also at project owners, architects, engineering firms, inspection offices, companies, etc.

The proper functioning of electrical installations is essential for the safety of people and property and for maintaining business operations. Therefore, the care taken in the design and maintenance of electrical installations is of crucial importance.

This book details all phases of the life of an electrical installation, from the design and implementation stages to maintenance, including compliance in buildings for professional use and establishments open to the public.

It presents the general characteristics of electrical installations such as power supply, electrical diagrams, protection against electric shocks, etc., before addressing the specific rules for public access buildings and high-rise buildings.

It also deals with special locations (bathrooms, swimming pools, electric vehicle charging) and renewable energy production (photovoltaic, wind, storage, heat pumps, etc.).

This guide incorporates all the developments and new features introduced by the revision of the NF C15-100 standard of August 2024: taking into account regulatory developments for cables and conductors and technological developments through the detection of electric arcs.

This version was written by Didier HÉRISSON, technical expert at Socotec, member of the AFNOR U15 commission since 2004.
