This standard covers commonly used 6-circuit, 19-pin, Socapex SL419 compatible, Special-Purpose Multicircuit Cable Systems deployed in stage, studio, and event applications.

The following systems and applications are outside the scope of this standard:

- 12-circuit, 37-pin cable systems found in USITT RP-1.

- 8-circuit, 19-pin cable systems.

- 7 and 14-pin chain hoist cable systems found in ANSI E1.6-5 (current published version).

- 3-pin HMI power cables found in ANSI E1.16 (current published version).

- Audio applications.

- Motor control applications.

- Other types of multicircuit cable systems.

Grounding and bonding of grounding conductors, except for the assignment of grounding pins in the multicircuit connectors, are outside the scope of this standard.

A variety of grounding practices exist in the industry and care should be taken to ensure safe and regulatory compliant ground continuity in deployed systems.
