3. Live working methods
3.1 Voltage ranges
In France, there are four voltage areas (see
very low voltage (VLV). These are structures or installations for which the nominal voltage does not exceed 50 V in alternating current and 120 V in direct current;
low voltage (LV). These are structures or installations for which the nominal voltage value is between 50 and 1,000 V in alternating current and between 120 and 1,500 V in direct current (higher values included);
High Voltage A (HTA). These are structures or installations for which the nominal voltage value is between...
