IEEE Standard for Design, Test, and Application Requirements for Microprocessor-Based Controls of Distribution Pad-mount, Dry Vault, Wet Vault, and Polemount Switchgear Rated Above 1 kV and Up to and Including 38 kV

Abstract

Basic requirements intended to mitigate the effects of the harsh environments encountered by microprocessor-based controls of distribution switchgear rated above 1 kV up to and including 38 kV are covered. Basic requirements include the design, testing and application of microprocessor-based controls. Microprocessor-based controls covered by IEEE Std C37.68™ are intended to be applied in distribution switchgear which is normally mounted on power poles, in wet or dry vaults, or in pad-mounted switchgear enclosures.
