1 Scope
1.1 Application
This document specifies the main characteristics of the voltage at a network user's
supply terminals in public low voltage , medium, high, and extra- high voltage AC electricity networks under normal operating conditions . This document specifies the limits or values within which the voltage characteristics
can be expected to remain at any supply terminal in public European electricity networks, only. Industrial networks are excluded from
the scope of EN 50160.
NOTE 1 If non-public networks (e.g. residential quarters, energy communities, office centres,
shopping centres) have similar end-users as public networks, it is strongly advised
to apply the same requirements as for public networks.
This document does not apply under abnormal operating conditions, including the following:
a) a temporary supply arrangement to keep network users supplied during conditions arising
as a result of a fault, maintenance and construction work, or to minimize the extent
and duration of a loss of supply;
b) in the case of non-compliance of a network user's installation or equipment with the
relevant s...
