IEEE C37.302

Abstract

This guide describes the testing of fault current limiters (FCLs) operating on condition-based impedance increase for AC systems 1000 V and above. This guide does not include constant impedance series reactors and single fuses. (For standards specific to these fault current limiting devices, see IEEE Std C57.16&#8482;^1,2,3 and IEEE Std C37.46&#8482; [B14]⁴). <br>NOTE&#8212;Testing of FCL load current interrupting capabilities are not addressed in this guide and may be discussed between user and manufacturer.⁵ <br><strong>Purpose</strong> <br>This guide provides guidelines for testing of fault current limiters (FCLs) operating on condition-based impedance increase for AC systems 1000 V and above. <br>¹ Information on normative references can be found in Clause 2. <br>² IEEE publications are available from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (<a href="http://standards.ieee.org/">http://standards.ieee.org/</a>). <br>³ The IEEE standards or products referred to in this clause are trademarks of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. <br>⁴ The numbers in brackets correspond to those of the bibliography in Annex C. <br>⁵ Notes in text, tables, and figures of a standard are given for information only and do not contain requirements needed to implement this standard.
