IEEE Standards Overviews

C62.11a -2008IEEE Standard for Metal-Oxide Surge Arresters for AC Power Circuits (> 1 kV)Amendment 1 Short Circuit Testing for Station, Intermediate and DistributionArrestersIn July 2008 the IEEE standards department published C62.11a, an amendment to C62.11.This new amendment now specifies a short circuit test for all arresters. It has been years inthe making. What makes this amendment so unique is that it is virtually identical to the test

procedure published in IEC 60099-4 in 2006. This is a first for arrester standardsharmonization. Though it will be many years before the both standards are virtually thesame, this is a first step.See Complete Overview

C62.11 -2005IEEE Standard for Metal-Oxide Surge Arresters for AC Power Circuits (> 1 kV)This standard applies to metal-oxide surge arresters (MOSAs) designed to repeatedly limitthe voltage surges on 48 Hz to 62 Hz power circuits (>1000 V) by passing surge dischargecurrent and automatically limiting the flow of system power current. This standard applies todevices for separate mounting and to devices supplied integrally with other equipment. Thetests demonstrate that an arrester can survive the rigors of reasonable environmental

conditions and system phenomena while protecting equipment and/or the system fromdamaging overvoltages caused by lightning, switching, and other undesirable surges

IEEE 1410IEEE Guide for Improving the Lightning Performance of Electric Power OverheadDistribution LinesThis design guide is written for the distribution-line designer and contains information onmethods to improve the lightning performance of overhead distribution lines. This guiderecognizes that a perfect line design does not exist, and that a series of compromises aremade in any distribution-line design.
