This standard series applies to frame-based cabinets and specifies the interface dimensions for the installation of miscellaneous equipment. Modularity of the frame-based structure supports shipment in the form of kits in order to maximize logistics efficiency and to minimize costs. Unlike the existing standards IEC 60917-2-1 and IEC 60297-3-100, this standard allows cover parts like top covers and front/rear doors to exceed the cabinet's external coordination dimensions. Legacy cabinets complying with IEC 60917-2-1 and IEC 60297-3-100 may be considered in conjunction with cabinets of IEC 60917-2-5 without significant technical modifications due to the fact that all follow the same coordination dimensions. Whilst the internal mounting points for mounting standardized equipment are defined in IEC 60297-3-100 and IEC 60917-2-1 in case of IEC 60917-2-5 additional mounting planes and mounting points are defined to be used for attaching miscellaneous equipment or accessories. The responsible committee is DKE/K 662 "Bauweisen" ("Structures") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
