This part of IEC 62282 provides minimum safety requirements for the installation of indoor
and outdoor stationary fuel cell power systems in compliance with IEC 62282-3-100 and
applies to the installation of the following systems:
– intended for electrical connection to mains directly or with a readily accessible, manually
operable switch or circuit-breaker;
– intended for a stand-alone power distribution system;
– intended to provide AC or DC power;
– with or without the ability to recover useful heat.
This standard is limited to those conditions that may be created by the installation process
that can lead to personnel hazards or damage to equipment or property external to the fuel
cell power system.
This standard does not cover the safety requirements of the stationary fuel cell power system
which are covered by IEC 62282-3-100.
Additionally, this standard does not cover:
– fuel supply and/or fuel storage systems;
– auxiliary media supply and disposal;
– switches or circuit-breakers;
– portable fuel cell power systems;
– propulsion fuel cell power systems;
– APU (auxiliary power units) applications.
A typical stationary fuel cell power system installation is represented in Figure 1.
