Hello all:
What can you tell me about these specs.?
IEEE-C62.41-1991 SURGE voltages in Low-Voltage AC Power Circuits *
IEEE STD 142-1991 Grounding of Industrial and Commercial Power
IEEE STD 519-1992 Harmonic Control in Electric Power Sys. *
IEEE STD 587-1980 electrical noise immunity spec. *
Are there specified testing procedures to these * marked standards?
Are there EN or IEC standards that correlate to these standards?
With reference to noise pulses how does
IEEE-C62.41-1991 or IEEE STD 587-1980 apply the
following? To what environment or connect category?
That is to say, these wouldn't be applied to single
phase equipment @ 5A would they?
High impedance 6KV amplitude with a 1.2 sec rise time and a 50 sec
duration.
Low impedance 3KA amplitude with an 8 sec rise time and 20 sec
duration 80 joules energy.
High impedance 6KV amplitude with a .6 sec duration at 100KHZ
Low impedance 500A amplitude with an .6 sec duration at 100KHZ (4
joules energy).
For example the proposed specs of EN 61000-4-5 for an
industrial environment (50082-2:1995) indicate 4kVCM
and 2kV DM 1,2/50 (8/20) Tr/Th sec.
Another question. As long as I am bringing up EN
61000-4-5 for an industrial environment. Would it be
acceptable to specify a CE compliant external surge
suppressor for a piece of CE marked equipment that
would provide compliance to the standard when
used/required in the installation. This would move
the environment criteria would it not?
Thanks for your comments in advance.
