IEC 60146-1-1:2009
Semiconductor converters - General requirements and line commutated converters - Part 1-1: Specification of basic requirements
IEC 60146-1-1:2009 specifies the requirements for the performance of all semiconductor power converters and semiconductor power switches using controllable and/or non-controllable electronic valve devices. It is primarily intended to specify the basic requirements for converters in general and the requirements applicable to line commutated converters for conversion of a.c. power to d.c. power or vice versa. Parts of this standard are also applicable to other types of electronic power converter provided that they do not have their own product standards. This fourth edition constitutes a technical revision and introduces five main changes:- re-edition of the whole standard according to the current directives;- correction of definitions and addition of new terms, especially terms concerning EMC, harmonic distortion and insulation co-ordination;- the service condition tolerances have been revised according to the IEC 61000 series;- the insulation tests have been revised considering the insulation co-ordination;- addition of three annexes.

Specifies the requirements for the performance of all electronic power convertors and electronic power switches using controllable and/or non-controllable electronic valves. Specifies the requirements applicable to line commutated convertors for conversion of a.c. power to d.c. power or vice versa including tests and service conditions which influence the basis of rating. The contents of the corrigendum of August 1993 have been included in this copy.
IEC 60146-1-1:2024 specifies the requirements for the performance of all semiconductor power converters and semiconductor power switches using controllable and/or non-controllable electronic valve devices. It is primarily intended to specify the basic requirements for converters in general and the requirements applicable to line commutated converters for conversion of AC power to DC power or vice versa. Parts of this document are also applicable to other types of electronic power converter provided that they do not have their own product standards. This fifth edition introduces four main changes: a) re-edition of the whole standard according to the current directives; b) deletion of safety-related descriptions considering coordination with IEC 62477 series; c) changes of calculation methods of inductive voltage regulation; d) changes considering coordination with IEC 61378 series. The content of the corrigendum 1 (2025-03) has been included in this copy.
