Live working - Insulating aerial devices for mounting on a chassis

IEC 61057:2017 is applicable to insulating aerial devices for mounting on a chassis, to be used for live working on electrical installations at nominal voltages above 1 000V r.m.s. AC in the range 45 Hz to 65 Hz and 1 500V DC. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1991 and IEC TS 61813:2000. This edition constitutes a technical revision.This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:a) general review of the requirements and test provisions;b) preparation of the elements of evaluation of defects, and general application of IEC 61318:2007;c) distinguishes between tests for hollow booms and those for foam filled booms;d) references ISO 16368 for particular mechanical tests;e) further information on vacuum protection and leakage current monitoring and a mandatory requirement that aerial devices for bare hand work be fitted with a permanently installed lower test electrode system;f) controls of high electrical resistance;g) reference to SAE for insulating hydraulic hoses;h) inclusion of IEC TS 61813 for care, maintenance and in-service testing of aerial devices with insulating booms.

Live working - Insulating aerial devices for mounting on a chassis

IEC 61057:2017 is applicable to insulating aerial devices for mounting on a chassis, to be used for live working on electrical installations at nominal voltages above 1 000V r.m.s. AC in the range 45 Hz to 65 Hz and 1 500V DC. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1991 and IEC TS 61813:2000. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) general review of the requirements and test provisions;
b) preparation of the elements of evaluation of defects, and general application of IEC 61318:2007;
c) distinguishes between tests for hollow booms and those for foam filled booms;
d) references ISO 16368 for particular mechanical tests;
e) further information on vacuum protection and leakage current monitoring and a mandatory requirement that aerial devices for bare hand work be fitted with a permanently installed lower test electrode system;
f) controls of high electrical resistance;
g) reference to SAE for insulating hydraulic hoses;
h) inclusion of IEC TS 61813 for care, maintenance and in-service testing of aerial devices with insulating booms.

International standard Cancelled
Aerial devices with insulating boom used for live working

Applies to aerial devices (mobile elevating work platforms (MEWP)), with or without the possibility of an additional jib, as a minimum with an insulating upper boom (extending structure) used for live working on the rated voltage, which is between 1 kW r.m.s. and 800 kV r.m.s., at power frequency. The contents of the corrigendum of July 1999 have been included in this copy.

Live working - Care, maintenance and in-service testing of aerial devices with insulating booms

Provides an informative guide on care, maintenance and in-service testing requirements of aerial devices with insulating booms used for live working. This specification is not a replacement for manufacturers' recommendations but rather a supplement containing critical generic requirements. In all cases, the manufacturers' specification and reasonable recommendations regarding use, care, maintenance, repairs and adjustments shall be adhered to.
