High-voltage switchgear and controlgear - Part 208: Methods to quantify the steady state, power-frequency electromagnetic fields generated by HV switchgear assemblies and HV/LV prefabricated substations

IEC/TR 62271-208:2009 gives practical guidance for the evaluation and documentation of the external electromagnetic fields which are generated by HV switchgear assemblies and HV/LV prefabricated substations. Basic requirements to measure or calculate the electric and magnetic fields are summarised for switchgear assemblies covered by IEC 62271-200 and IEC 62271-201, and for prefabricated substations covered by IEC 62271-202. This technical report applies to equipment rated for voltages up to and including 52 kV and power-frequencies from 15 Hz to 60 Hz.

Appareillage à haute tension - Partie 208: Méthodes de quantification des champs électromagnétiques à fréquence industrielle en régime établi générés par les ensembles d'appareillages HT et les postes préfabriqués HT/BT

La CEI/TR 62271-208:2009 donne des conseils pratiques pour évaluer et documenter les champs électromagnétiques externes générés par des appareillages HT et des postes HT/BT préfabriqués. Les exigences de base pour mesurer ou calculer les champs électrique et magnétique sont résumées pour des appareillages couverts par la CEI 62271-200 et la CEI 62271-201 et pour les postes préfabriqués couverts par la CEI 62271-202. Ce rapport technique s'applique aux équipements assignés pour des tensions jusqu'à et y compris 52 kV et des fréquences réseau de 15 Hz à 60 Hz.

Metode za kvantifikacijo nizkofrekvenčnih elektromagnetnih polj v ustaljenem stanju, ki jih generirajo visokonapetostne (VN) omrežne stikalne naprave in VN/NN montažne postaje (IEC/TR 62271-208:2009)

Ta del IEC 62271 podaja praktična vodila za ocenjevanje in dokumentacijo zunanjih elektromagnetnih polj, ki jih generirajo visokonapetostne omrežne stikalne naprave in VN/NN montažne postaje. Osnovne zahteve za merjenje ali izračun električnih in magnetnih polj so povzete za omrežne stikalne naprave, ki jih zajema IEC 62271-200 in IEC 62271-201, in za montažne postaje, ki jih zajema IEC 62271-202. OPOMBA 1: Metode, opisane v tem tehničnem poročilu, se nanašajo na trifazno opremo. Vendar pa se metodologija lahko ustrezno uporabi za katerokoli eno- ali večfazno opremo, ki jo zajema to tehnično poročilo. To tehnično poročilo se uporablja za opremo, opredeljeno za napetosti do in vključno z 52 kV in frekvence električnega toka od 15 Hz do 60 Hz. Elektromagnetska polja, ki jih generirajo harmonika (skladnost) ali prehodni pojavi, niso obravnavana v tem tehničnem poročilu. Vendar pa se opisane metode enakovredno uporabljajo za harmonična polja frekvence električnega toka. Podrobni splošni podatki o zahtevah in merjenih nizkofrekvenčnih elektromagnetnih polj so podani v IEC 61786. To tehnično poročilo zajema ocenjevanje pod tovarniškimi ali laboratorijskimi pogoji pred namestitvijo. Električna in magnetna polja se lahko ocenjuje bodisi z meritvami ali z izračuni. OPOMBA 2: Kjer je to izvedljivo, se lahko metode, opisane v tem tehničnem poročilu, uporabljajo tudi za naprave, postavljene na kraju obratovanja. Obseg tega tehničnega poročila ne zajema opredelitve mejnih vrednosti elektromagnetnih polj ali metod za ocenjevanje izpostavljenosti ljudi.
