The guide focuses mainly on the inverter transformers of the DPV power generation systems that are connected to the inverters supplying ac voltage and current to the primary (LV) winding of the transformer. Some specifics attributed to the auxiliary… read more power transformers in these systems are also discussed.

This standard applies to surge protectors for application on multiconductor balanced or unbalanced information and communications technology (ICT) circuits and smart grid data circuits. These surge protectors are designed to limit voltage surges, current surges, or both. The surge protectors covered are generally multiple-component series or parallel combinations of linear or nonlinear elements, packaged or organized for the purpose of limiting voltage, current, or both. This standard describes the methods of testing and criteria (where appropriate) for the characteristics and ratings of surge protectors used in ICT circuits and smart grid data circuits. This standard is not intended to cover packaged single gas tube, air gap, varistor, avalanche junction, or self-restoring current limiter surgeprotective components (SPCs), which are covered by IEEE Std C62.31 [B20], IEEE Std C62.32 [B21], IEEE Std C62.33 [B22], IEEE Std C62.35 [B23], and IEEE Std C62.39 [B24], respectively. Specifically excluded from this standard are test methods for low-voltage power circuit applications. For protection of wire-line communication facilities under the specialized conditions found at power stations, consult IEEE Std 487 [B16] series of documents.
This standard sets terms, test methods, test circuits, measurement procedures, and preferred result values for the surge parameters of isolating transformers used in networking devices and equipment. Three types of isolating transformer are considered: mains low frequency power, high frequency power (switching mode power supplies) and signal (e.g., Ethernet data). The surge parameters of the isolating transformer insulation barrier covered by this standard are as follows: - Rated impulse… read more voltage - Input winding to output winding capacitance - Insulation resistance Additional parameters for signal isolating transformers are as follows: - Core saturation voltage-time product - Rated input winding rms current for a given temperature rise This standard does not cover the transformer parameters required to help ensure appropriate operation on the service (e.g., signal transformer return loss). read less
This guide provides electrostatic discharge (ESD) test considerations that a manufacturer should use in assessing the expected ESD effects on products in a wide range of environments and customer use. The focus is well beyond that used to simply show that a product complies with a local, regional, or international standard or regulation. The following are included: charged peripheral testing, connector pin testing, and details on the use of ESD simulators. Finally, suggestions for assuring the… read more safety of those who apply the ESD discharge are provided. The annexes include information on test method selection and more background on air and contact discharge for those who want to further understand the differences in these methods. This guide is not applicable to manufacturing, service, or maintenance of equipment. Personnel who perform these activities should be trained to avoid ESD effects or damage to the equipment. In summary, this guide has test techniques beyond those that are commonly used (e.g., IEC 61000-4-2), and hence it can be a significant tool for increasing the immunity of products to ESD events. read less
