IEEE C57.13

Abstract

This standard is intended for use as a basis for performance and interchangeability of equipment covered, and to assist in the proper selection of such equipment. Safety precautions are also addressed. <br>This standard covers certain electrical, dimensional, and mechanical characteristics, and takes into consideration certain safety features of current and inductively coupled voltage transformers of types generally used in the measurement of electricity and the control. <br><strong>Purpose</strong> <br>The purpose of this standard is to provide the performance requirements for electrical system and test interchangeability of current and inductively coupled voltage transformers. These transformers are for both indoor and outdoor application. <br>This standard covers the requirements for Class 1 instrument transformers. For instrument transformers of a nominal system voltage of 115 kV and above if Class 2 is required refer to IEEE Std C57.13.5&#8482;.¹
