Description / Abstract:
This document provides standard Requirements for Interrupter Switches, Interrupters or Interrupting Aids Used on or Attached to Switches Rated for High-Voltage AC Above 1000 Volts and used indoors, outdoors, or in enclosures for non-fault current interrupting for which an interrupting duty is assigned. This standard covers preferred ratings, construction, application, loading, installation, operation, and maintenance guidelines. This standard does not apply to load-break separable insulated connectors, circuit-breakers, circuit switchers, metal enclosed switchgear, pad mounted switchgear, reclosers, sectionalizers or other switching devices that are covered by other IEEE standards.
Purpose:
The purpose of this standard is to provide a basic standard Requirements for Interrupter Switches, Interrupters or Interrupting Aids Used on or Attached to Switches Rated for High-Voltage AC Above 1000 Volts.
