IEC 63044-6:2021 specifies the requirements for planning and installation of HBES/BACS and the supporting infrastructure. Radio frequency (RF) HBES/BACS are also considered. Safety requirements are covered by IEC 60364 (all parts) Information and communication technology (ICT) and broadcasting and communication technology (BCT) network installations are typically interfaced with HBES/BACS. The requirements for ICT and BCT network installations are covered by ISO/IEC 14763-2. This document does not cover HBES/BACS implementation with: optical fibre, power lines, power over Ethernet (PoE).

IEC 63044-5-3:2017 is a product family standard that sets the minimum level of EMC performance for the HBES/BACS network in addition to the product EMC standards for HBES/BACS devices. It also applies to devices used within an HBES/BACS network for which no specific HBES/BACS product EMC standard exists. In addition, it defines EMC requirements for the interface of equipment intended to be connected to an HBES/BACS network. It does not apply to interfaces to other networks.

IEC 63044-5-2:2017 is a product family standard that sets the minimum level of EMC performance for the HBES/BACS network in addition to the product EMC standards for HBES/BACS devices. It also applies to devices used within an HBES/BACS network for which no specific HBES/BACS product EMC standard exists. In addition, it defines EMC requirements for the interface of equipment intended to be connected to an HBES/BACS network. It does not apply to interfaces to other networks.

IEC 63044-5-1:2017 is a product family standard that sets the minimum level of EMC performance for the HBES/BACS network in addition to the product EMC standards for HBES/BACS devices. It also applies to devices used within an HBES/BACS network for which no specific HBES/BACS product EMC standard exists. In addition, it defines EMC requirements for the interface of equipment intended to be connected to an HBES/BACS network. It does not apply to interfaces to other networks.

IEC 63044-4:2021 provides the functional safety requirements for HBES/BACS. In addition, it defines functional safety requirements for the interface of equipment intended to be connected to an HBES/BACS network. It does not apply to interfaces to other networks. This document does not provide functional safety requirements for safety-related systems. This document does not provide requirements on data protection and security.

IEC 63044-3:2017+A1:2021 specifies the electrical safety requirements for HBES/BACS. In addition, it defines safety requirements for the interface of equipment intended to be connected to an HBES/BACS. It does not apply to interfaces to other networks. This document covers the following requirements and compliance criteria : protection against hazards from the device, protection against overvoltages on the network, protection against touch current, protection against hazards caused by different types of network, protection of the communication wiring against overheating caused by excessive current.

IEC 63044-1:2017+A1:2021 applies to all Home and Building Electronic Systems (HBES) and Building Automation and Control Systems (BACS) and specifies the general requirements for these systems and products. This document provides an overview of the IEC 63044 series. To enable integration of a wide spectrum of applications, the IEC 63044 series covers electrical safety, functional safety, environmental conditions, EMC requirements, and installation and cabling rules and topologies.
