This part of IEC 60947 applies to transfer switching equipment (TSE) to be used in power systems for transferring a load supply between a normal and an alternate source with a supply interruption during transfer, the rated voltage of which does not exceed 1 000 V a.c. or 1 500 V d.c.
It covers:
-
manually operated transfer switching equipment (MTSE);
-
remotely operated transfer switching equipment (RTSE);
-
automatic transfer switching equipment (ATSE).
It covers TSE provided with or without an enclosure.
Devices necessary for the control (e.g. control switches, etc.) and the protection (e.g. circuit-breakers, etc.) of a TSE are covered by the relevant IEC standards.
Note 1 TSE used only for emergency lighting may be subject to specific rules and/or legal requirements and are not, therefore, covered by this standard.
The object of this part of IEC 60947 is to state:
-
The characteristics of the equipment.
Text deleted
-
The conditions of the equipment with respect to:
-
operation for which the equipment is intended;
-
operation and behaviour in case of specified abnormal conditions, for example, short-circuit;
-
dielectric properties.
-
-
The tests intended to confirm that these conditions have been met and the methods for performing these tests.
-
The data to be marked on the equipment and provided by the manufacturer.
NOTE 2 This standard covers also ATSE or RTSE which can be used for safety services as defined in IEC 60364-1 and for which the installation requirements are given by IEC 60364-5-56.
NOTE 3 Other ATSE requirements are under consideration such as closed transition TSE (make before break transfer operation).
