Hochspannungs-Prüftechnik für Niederspannungsgeräte - Begriffe, Prüfung und Prüfbedingungen, Prüfgeräte (IEC 61180:2016); Deutsche Fassung EN 61180:2016

Overview

This new standard combines the two previous standards DIN EN 61180-1 (VDE 0432-10):1995-05 and DIN EN 61180-2 (VDE 0432-11):1995-05 into one standard. The content has been fundamentally revised and adapted to the state of the art. The annexes on measurement uncertainty and atmospheric correction are new. This standard is applicable to: - dielectric tests with direct voltage; - dielectric tests with alternating voltage; - dielectric tests with impulse voltage; - test equipment used for dielectric tests on low-voltage equipment. This standard is applicable only to tests on equipment having a rated voltage of not more than 1 kV a.c. or 1,5 kV d.c. This standard is applicable to type and routine tests for objects which are subjected to high voltage tests as specified by the technical committee. The test equipment comprises a voltage generator and a measuring system. This standard covers test equipment in which the measuring system is protected against external interference and coupling by appropriate screening, for example a continuous conducting shield. Therefore, simple comparison tests are sufficient to ensure valid results. This standard provides the responsible Technical Committees, as far as possible, with the following information: - terms of general and specific applicability; - general requirements for devices under test and test methods; - methods for generating and measuring test voltages; - test methods; - methods for evaluating test results and specifying acceptance criteria; - requirements for recognized measuring instruments and their verification; - measurement uncertainty. Other test methods may be necessary and should be defined by the responsible Technical Committees. If the test object has voltage-limiting components, then it should be taken into consideration that these may influence the test. The responsible technical committee should provide guidance with regard to test items with voltage-limiting components. This standard is not intended to be used for electromagnetic compatibility tests on electric or electronic equipment. The responsible committee is DKE/K 124 "Hochspannungs- und Hochstrom-Prüftechnik" ("High voltage and current testing technology") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
