Static VAR compensators (SVC) - Testing of thyristor valves (IEC 61954:2011); German version EN 61954:2011
Statische Blindleistungskompensatoren (SVC) - Prüfung von Thyristorventilen (IEC 61954:2011); Deutsche Fassung EN 61954:2011
Overview
This International Standard defines type, production and optional tests on thyristor valves used in thyristor controlled reactors (TCR), thyristor switched reactors (TSR) and thyristor switched capacitors (TSC) forming part of static VAR compensators (SVC) for power system applications. The requirements of the standard apply both to single valve units (one phase) and to multiple valve units (several phases). The responsible committee is K 331 "Leistungselektronik" ("Power electronics") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
