This guide describes the testing of fault current limiters (FCLs) operating on condition-based impedance increase for AC systems 1000 V and above. This guide does not include constant impedance series reactors and single fuses. (For standards specific to these fault current limiting devices, see IEEE Std C57.16(TM)1,2,3 and IEEE Std C37.46(TM)). NOTE--Testing of FCL load current interrupting capabilities are not addressed in this guide and may be discussed between user and manufacturer.
This guide applies to on-site acceptance tests of electrical equipment and system commissioning of 1000-kV ac and above. It identifies criteria and recommendations for test items, conditions, methods, and results. The stated recommendations, both technical and for testing, are universally needed for on-site acceptance tests and commissioning of 1000 kV ac and above ultra-high-voltage (UHV) power equipment, including power transformers, reactors, capacitive voltage transformers (CVTs), bushing-… read more type current transformers (CTs), gas-insulated switchgear, air insulated grounding switches, air insulated disconnecting switches, bushings, metal-oxide surge arresters (MOSAs), suspension insulators, post insulators, and insulating oil. read less
The terms and definitions in this standard cover all high-voltage enclosed and non-enclosed, indoor and outdoor air switches rated in excess of 1000 V used primarily in connection with generation, transmission, distribution, and conversion of electric power. This includes such switch types as disconnect, horn-gap, fault initiation, and ground for manual or power operation. The following switch types are not covered by this standard: distribution cutouts fitted with disconnecting blades, and… read more switches used in metal-enclosed and pad-mounted switchgear. This standard also does not apply to load-break separable insulated connectors, circuit-breakers, circuit-switchers, or reclosers. read less
This guide includes field testing techniques that are frequently used for shielded, insulated power cable systems rated 5 kV and above. The guide describes the tests and gives advantages and disadvantages, suggested applications, and typical results. Guides covering some of the test methods listed are available in the form of IEEE 400 “point” documents. Some methods that are less frequently used or no longer used are identified in the relevant sections.
This project will present uniform methods for testing insulation with direct voltages. It applies to AC electric machines. It covers acceptance testing of new equipment in the factory or in the field after erection and routine maintenance testing of machines that have been in service.
This project will provide guidance for the planning, permitting, design, equipment specification, installation, commissioning, operation, and maintenance of gas-insulated transmission lines. The guide will address technical aspects only. Commercial and legal issues associated with gas-insulated transmission lines are not considered. This guide applies to ac transmission lines rated for maximum operating voltage of 72.5 kV and higher.
This guide applies specifically to mobile high-voltage gas-insulated substation (GIS) equipment rated above 52 kV. It is used for developing specifications, design, fabrication, testing, installation, commissioning, operation, maintenance, storage, and transportation of mobile GIS.
This standard identifies open system interfaces for high power electronics equipment used in zonal electrical distribution systems rated above 100 kW. Interfaces are grouped into key and non-key interfaces and are based on technological maturity, accepted practices, and allowances for future technology insertions. This standard defines how openness of system should be verified and validated through rigorous assessment mechanisms, interface control management, and proactive conformance testing… read more to enable plug-and-play operability independently of the components origin. It also formulates specific interface requirements for open zonal electrical distribution systems on ships and platforms. read less
This document revises the application guide for capacitive current switching for high-voltage circuit breakers rated in accordance with IEEE Std C37.04 and tested in accordance with IEEE Std C37.100.2.6 It supplements IEEE Std C37.010. Circuit breakers rated and manufactured to meet other standards should be applied in accordance with application procedures adapted to their specific ratings.
This recommended practice is intended to identify, organize and summarize information about high-voltage circuit breakers provided by the manufacturer that knowledgeable users will find useful for the receipt, installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance, and decommissioning of ac high-voltage circuit breakers above 1000 V. This recommended practice recommends categories and an arrangement for the presentation of information in circuit breaker instruction manuals.
This International Standard is applicable to the measurement of partial discharges which occur in electrical apparatus, components or systems when tested with alternating voltages up to 400 Hz or with direct voltage. This standard - defines the terms used; - defines the quantities to be measured; - describes test and measuring circuits which may be used; - defines analogue and digital measuring methods required for common applications; - specifies methods for calibration and requirements of instruments used for calibration; - gives guidance on test procedures; - gives some assistance concerning the discrimination of partial discharges from external interference. The provisions of this standard should be used in the drafting of specifications relating to partial discharge measurements for specific power apparatus. It deals with electrical measurements of impulsive (short-duration) partial discharges, but reference is also made to non-electrical methods primarily used for partial discharge location (see annex F). Diagnosis of the behaviour of specific power apparatus can be aided by digital processing of partial discharge data (see annex E) and also by non-electrical methods that are primarily used for partial discharge location (see annex F). This standard is primarily concerned with electrical measurements of partial discharges made during tests with alternating voltage, but specific problems which arise when tests are made with direct voltage are considered in clause 11. The terminology, definitions, basic test circuits and procedures often also apply to tests with other frequencies, but special test procedures and measuring system characteristics, which are not considered in this standard, may be required. Annex A provides normative requirements for performance tests on calibrators.
