IEC TS 63337:2024 provides requirements, test conditions and tests to validate characteristics including the service life of customized DC-link film capacitors for use in motor vehicle components.
Standard DC-link capacitors qualified according to other IEC standards or AEC-Q200 are excluded from the scope of this document.
The requirements, test conditions and tests listed in this document apply to customized film capacitors developed for use in motor vehicle power electronics for the application as a DC-link capacitor in HV applications or in the intermediate circuit of the 48 V on-board electrical system.
These qualification requirements can be expanded or adapted for the application of technologically innovative designs, if necessary. The content and scope of supplements is therefore to be specified and documented in coordination between the responsible parties prior to sourcing.
Power electronics in the motor vehicle need to be tested in accordance with the environmental qualification standards of the vehicle manufacturers.
The tests in this document do not replace the tests specified in the Component Requirement Specifications for complete vehicle components or additional or deviating further requirements, test conditions and tests described therein.
This document contains no tests to validate the thermal interface between capacitors, power electronics and the cooling system on the component level.

IEC 60143-1:2015 applies both to capacitor units and capacitor banks intended to be used connected in series with an a.c. transmission or distribution line or circuit forming part of an a.c. power system having a frequency of 15 Hz to 60 Hz. The primary focus of this standard is on transmission application. The series capacitor units and banks are usually intended for high-voltage power systems. This standard is applicable to the complete voltage range. This standard does not apply to capacitors of the self-healing metallized dielectric type. The following capacitors, even if connected in series with a circuit, are excluded from this standard:
- capacitors for inductive heat-generating plants (IEC 60110-1);
- capacitors for motor applications and the like (IEC 60252 (all parts));
- capacitors to be used in power electronics circuits (IEC 61071);
- capacitors for discharge lamps (IEC 61048 and IEC 61049). For standard types of accessories such as insulators, switches, instrument transformers, external fuses, etc. see the pertinent IEC standard. The object of this standard is:
- to formulate uniform rules regarding performance, testing and rating;
- to formulate specific safety rules;
- to serve as a guide for installation and operation. This fifth edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition, published in 2004. This edition constitutes a technical revision. The main change with respect to the previous edition is that the endurance test has been replaced by an ageing test because voltage cycling is already performed in the cold duty test. The guide section has been expanded regarding long line correction and altitude correction. In addition the insulation tables and references to other standards have been updated.
Keywords: a.c. transmission or distribution line, capacitor units and banks for high-voltage power systems

IEC 62146-2:2023 is applicable to TRV capacitors used on high-voltage alternating current circuit-breakers with rated voltages above 100 kV with 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
TRV capacitors are installed phase to earth, either in parallel to the bushing on dead tank circuit-breakers, or immersed inside the circuit-breaker, or freestanding close to the circuit-breaker. Their function is to limit the transient recovery voltage (TRV) and the rate of rise of recovery voltage (RRRV) on the circuit-breaker. Capacitors in compliance with this document can be used as TRV capacitor.
This document applies to TRV capacitors falling into one or both of the following categories for:
- mounting on or close to air insulated switchgear (AIS) dead tank and live tank circuit-breakers, or
- mounting on gas insulated switchgear (GIS) circuit-breakers.
The testing for each of the above applications is in some cases different.
This document does not apply to grading capacitors installed in parallel to the chambers of the circuit-breaker, which are specified in IEC 62146-1.
This document does not apply to capacitors not directly associated with high-voltage alternating current circuit-breakers.
The object of this document is:
- to define uniform rules regarding performances, testing and rating
- to define specific safety rules
- to provide a guidance for installation and operation
The TRV capacitor is a sub-component for the circuit-breaker and is specified in accordance with the circuit-breaker specifications according to IEC 62271-1, IEC 62271-100, and if applicable to IEC 62271-203.
TRV capacitors are commonly built with composite or ceramic housings (insulators). Those insulators follow IEC 61462 or IEC 62155. Other housings can be used if they can sustain applicable type tests according to IEC 61462 and IEC 62155.
This International Standard is to be used in conjunction with IEC 62146-1:2013 and IEC 62146-1:2013/AMD1:2016.

IEC 62146-2:2023 is applicable to TRV capacitors used on high-voltage alternating current circuit-breakers with rated voltages above 100 kV with 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
TRV capacitors are installed phase to earth, either in parallel to the bushing on dead tank circuit-breakers, or immersed inside the circuit-breaker, or freestanding close to the circuit-breaker. Their function is to limit the transient recovery voltage (TRV) and the rate of rise of recovery voltage (RRRV) on the circuit-breaker. Capacitors in compliance with this document can be used as TRV capacitor.
This document applies to TRV capacitors falling into one or both of the following categories for:
- mounting on or close to air insulated switchgear (AIS) dead tank and live tank circuit-breakers, or
- mounting on gas insulated switchgear (GIS) circuit-breakers.
The testing for each of the above applications is in some cases different.
This document does not apply to grading capacitors installed in parallel to the chambers of the circuit-breaker, which are specified in IEC 62146-1.
This document does not apply to capacitors not directly associated with high-voltage alternating current circuit-breakers.
The object of this document is:
- to define uniform rules regarding performances, testing and rating
- to define specific safety rules
- to provide a guidance for installation and operation
The TRV capacitor is a sub-component for the circuit-breaker and is specified in accordance with the circuit-breaker specifications according to IEC 62271-1, IEC 62271-100, and if applicable to IEC 62271-203.
TRV capacitors are commonly built with composite or ceramic housings (insulators). Those insulators follow IEC 61462 or IEC 62155. Other housings can be used if they can sustain applicable type tests according to IEC 61462 and IEC 62155.
This International Standard is to be used in conjunction with IEC 62146-1:2013 and IEC 62146-1:2013/AMD1:2016.

IEC TR 63362-1:2022(E) establishes guidelines for the application and use of aluminium electrolytic capacitors in electronic equipment.
The information given in this document applies to capacitors with non-solid electrolyte but can, in its appropriate clauses, apply to capacitors with solid electrolyte as well.
Electrolytic capacitors in general – and aluminium electrolytic capacitors in particular – are an exception in the capacitor field because of the components’ close interaction of physics and chemistry. Therefore, aluminium electrolytic capacitors show, in various aspects, a technical behaviour unaccustomed to the user. That could easily lead to misapplications and even to endangering of persons and goods. The aim of this document is to minimize these risks by providing detailed information on the specific peculiarities of the component.
This first edition cancels and replaces CLC/TR 50454 published in 2008. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
