IEC 61439-2:2011

Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear assemblies - Part 2: Power switchgear and controlgear assemblies

OVERVIEW

IEC 61439-2:2011 defines the specific requirements of power switchgear and controlgear assemblies (PSC-ASSEMBLIES) as follows:

- ASSEMBLIES for which the rated voltage does not exceed 1 000 V in case of a.c. or 1 500 V in case of d.c.;

- stationary or movable ASSEMBLIES with or without enclosure;

- ASSEMBLIES intended for use in connection with the generation, transmission, distribution and conversion of electric energy, and for the control of electric energy consuming equipment;

- ASSEMBLIES designed for use under special service conditions, for example in ships and in rail vehicles provided that the other relevant specific requirements are complied with;

- ASSEMBLIES designed for electrical equipment of machines.

Supplementary requirements for ASSEMBLIES forming part of a machine are covered by the IEC 60204 series. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2009. It constitutes a technical revision. This second edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the last edition of IEC 61439-2:

- clarification of the scope;

- revision of requirements for withdrawable and removable parts;

- revision of mechanical impact test (10.2.6);

- extension of Table 101;

- review of Table BB.1 to reflect modified requirements and verifications;

- general editorial review.



This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 61439-1:2009.
