Industrial systems, installations and equipment and industrial products - Structuring principles and reference designations - Part 10: Power supply systems
This document provides rules for structuring of systems in the domain of power supply systems, being supplementary to the general principles for the structuring of systems including structuring of information about systems specified in IEC 81346-1.Based on these principles, rules and guidance are given for the formulation of unambiguous reference designations for objects in any system.The reference designation identifies objects for the purpose of creation and retrieval of information about an object and, where realized, about its corresponding component.A reference designation labelled at a component is the key to finding information about that object among different kinds of documents.The principles are general and are applicable to all technical areas (e.g. mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, construction engineering, process engineering). They can be used for systems based on different technologies or for systems combining several technologies.This document also defines classes for systems and spaces in the field of power supply systems.

The reference designation identifies objects for the purpose of creation and retrieval of information about an object and, where realized, about its corresponding component.
A reference designation labelled at a component is the key to finding information about that object among different kinds of documents.
The principles are general and are applicable to all technical areas (e.g. mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, construction engineering, process engineering). They can be used for systems based on different technologies or for systems combining several technologies.
This document also defines classes for systems and spaces in the field of power supply systems.
ISO/TS 81346-10:2015 contains sector-specific stipulations for structuring principles and reference designation rules on technical products and technical product documentation of power plants. It applies in combination with IEC 81346‑2, ISO/TS 81346‑3, VGB-B 101 and VGB-B 102 for the classification of systems and objects, and for function-, product- and location-specific designation of technical products and their documentation for power plants. It specifies the designation blocks for the clear identification and localization of the technical products, which are used for their labelling in the plant, for their designation in technical documents and for the designation of the technical documents as well. This Technical Specification encompasses the process of energy conversion. The specifications in this document apply for the power plant process, for the primary energy supply and final products distribution, as well as for auxiliary media and auxiliary energy supply, waste materials and waste energy disposal. This Technical Specification is not applicable to recovery of the primary energy and the media for supplying the process, nor to the processing of residues from process disposal (e.g. gypsum, slag products, waste water, etc.).
The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!

At a glance, you will be able to identify the additions, deletions or modifications to a text, table, figure and formula.
