This standard covers capacitance current switching requirements for ac high-voltage circuit breakers rated in accordance with methods given in American National Standard Rating Structure for A C High-Voltage Circuit Breakers, C37.04-1964, and listed in American National Standard Schedules of Preferred Ratings and Related Required Capabilities for A C High-Voltage Circuit Breakers, C37.06-1972.2 It is anticipated that the manufacturers of circuit breakers will expend efforts to meet the… read more requirements of these new standards as soon as possible. However, it is recognized that this will require time for completion; users are cautioned to confer with the manufacturer as to whether a specific design meets these standards. Circuit breakers manufactured before the publication date of this standard may not meet its requirements; the manufacturer should be consulted concerning the capacitance current switching capabilities of these earlier designs. read less
This standard applies to ac high-voltage circuit breakers with rated nominal voltage above 1000 V. It establishes a rating structure, preferred ratings, construction and functional component requirements. This standard encompasses the following: - Three pole circuit breakers used in three-phase systems - Single pole circuit breakers used in single-phase systems - Attachments for these circuit breakers, such as bushings, current transformers, interlocks, shunt trips, etc., and auxiliary equipment sold with the circuit breakers such as closing relays and structural steel supports. This standard does not cover circuit breakers used at frequencies other than 50 Hz or 60 Hz or generator circuit breakers that are covered in IEC/IEEE Std 62271-37-013
This standard applies to ac high-voltage circuit breakers with rated maximum voltage above 1000 V. It defines various tests that are made on ac high-voltage circuit breakers, except for generator circuit breakers, which are covered in IEC/IEEE 62271-37-013:2015 (formerly IEEE Std C37.013(TM)-1997). It specifies the tests and describes the accepted methods used to verify assigned ratings defined in IEEE Std C37.04(TM). It also describes the test procedures associated with production and field installation. The test procedures are divided into the following classifications: a) Design tests; b) Production tests; c) Conformance tests; d) Field tests. NOTE--Design tests are referred to as “Type” tests, and Production tests are referred to as “Routine” tests in IEC standards.
This part of IEC 62271 applies to all overhead, pad-mounted, dry vault and submersible single or multi-pole alternating current automatic circuit reclosers for rated maximum voltages above 1 000 V and up to and including 38 kV.Devices that require a dependent manual operation are not covered by this document.In order to simplify this document where possible, the term recloser (or reclosers) has been substituted for automatic circuit recloser(s) or cutout mounted recloser(s) or both.
This standard covers the application guide for transient recovery voltage requirements for ac high-voltage circuit breakers rated above 1000 volts and on a symmetrical current basis. The capability limits of these circuit breaker interrupting devices are determined largely by the transient recovery voltages. The guide for application is not included in other existing circuit breaker standards.

This standard covers metal-enclosed low-voltage power circuit breaker switchgear assemblies containing, but not limited to, such devices as low-voltage power circuit breakers (fused or unfused), other interrupting devices, switches, control, instrumentation, and metering, and protective and regulating equipment. This standard is concerned with enclosed, rather than open, indoor and outdoor switchgear assemblies. It includes types of equipment that are part of secondary unit substations. It does not apply to equipment covered by industrial control standards, communication switchboards, communication switching equipment, switchboards for use on board ships, or dead-front distribution switchboards. In this standard, metal-enclosed low-voltage power circuit breaker switchgear shall be called LV switchgear. For LV ac switchgear, the nominal system voltage shall be 1000 Vac or below; for LV dc switchgear, the rated maximum voltage shall be 3200 Vdc or below.
This standard is applicable to three-pole circuit breakers used in three-phase systems and single-pole circuit breakers used in single-phase systems, both indoor and outdoor AC high-voltage types, rated above 1000 volts on a symmetrical current basis. This standard does not cover circuit breakers used at rated frequencies other than 50 Hz or 60 Hz, or generator circuit breakers that are covered in IEEE Std. C37.013.
This application guide covers procedures and calculations necessary to apply the standard transient recovery voltage (TRV) ratings for ac high-voltage circuit breakers with rated maximum voltage above 1000 V. The breaking capability limits of these circuit breakers are determined to a great degree by the TRV. This application guide is not included in other existing circuit breaker standards. In this document, the TRV ratings are compared with typical system TRV duties. Examples of TRV… read more calculation are given with suggested options if the TRV duty exceeds the TRV ratings of the circuit breaker. read less
