Measuring relays and protection equipment - Part 26: Electromagnetic compatibility requirements

IEC 60255-26:2023 specifies the requirements for electromagnetic compatibility for measuring relays and protection equipment. It is applicable to measuring relays and protection equipment and combinations of devices to form schemes for power system protection including the control, monitoring, communication and process interface equipment used with those systems. This document specifies limits and test methods, for measuring relays and protection equipment in relation to electromagnetic emissions which might cause interference in other equipment. This document specifies the immunity test requirements for measuring relays and protection equipment in relation to continuous and transient, conducted and radiated disturbances, including electrostatic discharges.

Measuring relays and protection equipment - Part 26: Electromagnetic compatibility requirements

IEC 60255-26:2013 is applicable to measuring relays and protection equipment, taking into account combinations of devices to form schemes for power system protection including the control, monitoring, communication and process interface equipment used with those systems. This standard specifies the requirements for electromagnetic compatibility for measuring relays and protection equipment. The requirements specified in this standard are applicable to measuring relays and protection equipment in a new condition and all tests specified are type tests only. This new edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - definition of test specifications, test procedures and acceptance criteria per phenomena and port under test in one document; - extension of radiated emission measurement for frequencies above 1 GHz; - limitation of radiated emission measurement at 3 m distance for small equipment only; - addition of zone A and zone B test level on surge test; - extension of tests on the auxiliary power supply port by a.c. and d.c. voltage dips, a.c. component in d.c. (ripple) and gradual shut-down/start-up; - harmonization of acceptance criteria for immunity tests.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
