Large scale means equipment that has either too large a volume for being moved in an ISO 20 foot container (more than 32.07 m2), has a maximum weight above 44 tonnes, can only be installed or dismantled using heavy cranes, and/or has a nominal effect over 375 W.

You need professional assemblers and qualified professionals to assemble the equipment and/or integrate it into a building or a structure, and to later disassemble the installation.

Permanently means that the product does not change its location in its entire useful life, but is only intended to be used at the site where it was assembled.

Specifically designed means that the equipment is tailor-made for exactly that installation in which it is a part, and it cannot be used in other installations.

Tools are defined as machines - either stand-alone or in assemblies - often with moveable parts and used, for instance, for treatment or production of materials and work units. Tools may also be electric pumps, generators, and compressors. It is placed on the market as a stand-alone tool and is not tailor-made.

The procedure in which a licensing authority certifies that a type of vehicle, system, component, or separate technical unit complies with the relevant administrative provisions and technical requirements

The machinery has been designed to be in operation or driven beyond public roads. The machinery by itself must have own mobility, for instance through wheels.

The machinery is dependent on a battery/accumulator/engine as a power source before being able to move. The machinery must be able to drive without cables and without being connected to the power grid.

The machinery by itself requires mobility to operate correctly or to fulfil the intended functions.

The machinery is exclusively used by other users than private households.
