6、 Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of the ITU. The ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations

7、 on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The ap

8、proval of Recommendations by the Members of the ITU-T is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation,

Recommendation K.50 (02/2000) Page 1 9 . 111 Introduction and background Telecommunication networks use repeaters, regenerators, or multiplexers that sometimes are powered over the paired-conductor cables of the network. The voltages and currents that power these

16、systems differ rom those of telecommunication services provided to users. To help ensure that service personnel can safely work on these lines without de-energizing the circuits or using insulated gloves, this Recommendation provides guidance on the voltage and current limits for these systems, as w

17、ell as on associated work practices. Voltages and currents that may be applied to a telecommunication network by equipment forming part of a subscribers installation are covered in IEC 60950, Safety of Information Technolou Equipment 2. iv Recommendation K.50 (02/2000) Recommendation K.50 SAFE LIMIT

18、S OF OPERATING VOLTAGES AND CURRENTS FOR TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEMS POWERED OVER THE NETWORK (Geneva, 2000) 1 Scope This Recommendation provides guidance on voltages and currents that may safely be used to power telecommunication systems that are part of the network. These systems are not intended to

19、 be part of the subscribers installation, and are not accessible to users of the network. They are located in the networks between different telecommunication centres and between a telecommunication centre and public network interfaces. Figure la shows the field of application in the network between

20、 different telecommunication centres. Figure lb shows the part of the access network where K.50 is applicable. If there is no access network equipment between the local exchange and the customer premises equipment, this Recommendation does not apply. NOTE 1 - Example for the ISDN basic rate network

21、termination (NT 1): a) When the NT1 is owned by the operator, it is an equipment in the access network and it is within the scope of K.50. b) When the NT1 is owned by the customer, it is customer premises equipment and K.50 does not apply to it. These systems use the paired-conductor cables of the n

22、etwork or specific power feeding cables to provide power to equipment at remote locations. This equipment and the current carrying conductors can be accessed in the energized state by service personnel without using insulated gloves or tools. This Recommendation covers only systems that use continuo

23、us dc powering. If voltages and currents that exceed the limits of this Recommendation are used, then this Recommendation does not apply. Guidance on work practices, if these limits are exceeded, can be found in Volumes VI and VII of the Directives 3 and 4. NOTE 2 - Limits on permissible voltages th

24、at may occur because of exposure to power or traction lines are provided in Recommendation K.33 i and in the ITU-T Directives. NOTE 3 -Requirements for the safety of equipment that is part of the telecommunications network infiastructure are provided in ITU-T Recommendation K.51 SI and IEC 60950 2.

TNV circuits are classified as TNV-1, TNV-2 and TNV-3

37、circuits. 4.5 - TNV-1 circuit 2: A TNV circuit: whose normal operating voltages do not exceed the limits for an SELV circuit under normal operating conditions; on which overvoltages rom telecommunication networks are possible.

42、es and the customer premises cabling. - 4.6 - - 4.7 - Recommendation K.50 (02/2000) 3 5 Voltage and current limits 5.1 General This Recommendation defines two methods for safe powering of telecommunication systems over the network. They are both based on IEC/TR2 60479-1 5. The first method limits th

43、e voltage so that the insulation or the resistance of the body limits the current conducted by service personnel to tolerable levels. The second method limits the current of the remote power feeding circuit so that higher voltages can be allowed. Both methods are being used for many years by various

44、 operators. Examples of existing national standards are given in the Bibliography (Appendix I). 5.2 Method 1: Voltage limited RFT circuits This method is defined as the RFT-V circuit in Annex A. 5.3 This method is defined as the RFT-C circuit in Annex B. Method 2: Current limited RFT circuits 6 Work

45、 practices 6.1 General work practices The RFT circuits have been defined so that the equipment and the current carrying conductors can be accessed in the energized state by service personnel without de-energizing the circuits or using insulated gloves or tools. Therefore normal work practices are ap

46、plicable for working on RFT circuits. When RFT circuits are used, it is recommended to inform the service personnel that RFT voltages and currents can be present on circuits in the network. Guidance on work practices, if the limits of RFT circuits are exceeded, can be found in Volumes VI and VII of

47、the Directives 3 and 4. 6.2 Special work practices If service personnel, working e.g. at the MDF, can contact simultaneously several terminals that are connected to RFT-C circuits, these terminals shall be suitably labelled or appropriately marked to alert service personnel. ANNEX A RFT-V circuits A
