Verbund-Kettenisolatoren für Freileitungen mit einer Nennspannung über 1 000 V - Teil 1: Genormte Festigkeitsklassen und Endarmaturen (IEC 61466-1:2016); Deutsche Fassung EN 61466-1:2016, Berichtigung zu DIN EN 61466-1 (VDE 0674-103-1):2017-01
Overview
This part of IEC 61466 is applicable to composite string insulator units for a.c. overhead lines with a nominal voltage greater than 1 000 V and a frequency not greater than 100 Hz. It also applies to insulators of similar design used in substations or on electric traction lines. This standard applies to string insulator units of composite type with ball, socket, tongue, clevis, Y-clevis or eye couplings, or a combination thereof. The object of this standard is to prescribe specified values for the mechanical characteristics of the composite string insulator units and define the main dimensions of the couplings to be used on the composite string insulator units in order to permit the assembly of insulators or fittings supplied by different manufacturers and to allow, whenever practical, interchangeability with existing installations. It also defines a standard designation system for composite string insulator units. General concepts and test methods are specified in IEC 61109. This International Standard only covers the dimensions required for the assembly of the connections. Material properties and operating loads are not specified. The coordination of dimensions of the end fittings with the strength classes is specified. This correction replaces Figure A.7, as the dimensions "alpha2" in "α2" and "α3"; "H5" in "H4" and "H5" and "R4" in "R3" and "R4" have to be corrected. The responsible committee is DKE/K 451 "Isolatoren" ("Insulators") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
