EITInstallationThailand

EIT 2001-56

Thai Electrical Code (Electrical Installation Standard for Thailand)

มาตรฐานการติดตั้งทางไฟฟ้าสำหรับประเทศไทย พ.ศ. 2556

The national wiring rules published by the Engineering Institute of Thailand. Sets the requirements for designing and installing low- and high-voltage electrical systems in buildings, and is the reference used by MEA and PEA for connection approval.
