EN IEC 60077-4:2019

Railway applications - Electric equipment for rolling stock - Part 4: Electrotechnical components - Rules for AC circuit-breakers

IEC 60077-4:2019 is available as IEC 60077-4:2019 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.IEC 60077-4:2019 gives rules for AC circuit-breakers, the main contacts of which are connected to AC overhead contact lines; the nominal voltage of these circuits being in accordance with IEC 60850. This document, together with IEC 60077-2, states specifically: a) the characteristics of the circuit-breakers; b) the service conditions with which circuit-breakers comply with reference to: - operation and behaviour in normal service; - operation and behaviour in short-circuit; - dielectric properties; c) the tests for confirming the compliance of the components with the characteristics under the service conditions and the methods to be adopted for these tests d). the information to be marked on, or given with the circuit-breaker. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, issued in 2003. This edition includes the following main technical changes with regard to the previous edition: a) standard values of transient recovery voltages and test procedure are reviewed; b) procedure of verification of temperature rise is changed; c) air-tightness test as type test, insulation resistance measurement are added

IEC 60077-4:2019 est disponible sous forme de IEC 60077-4:2019 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.L' IEC 60077-4:2019 donne les règles relatives aux disjoncteurs à courant monophasé dont les contacts principaux sont destinés à être raccordés à des lignes aériennes de contact à courant monophasé. La tension nominale de ces circuits est conforme à l'IEC 60850. En complément de l'IEC 60077-2, le présent document précise particulièrement: a) les caractéristiques des disjoncteurs; b) les conditions de service que les disjoncteurs supportent du point de vue: - du fonctionnement et du comportement en service normal; - du fonctionnement et du comportement en cas de court-circuit; - des propriétés diélectriques; c) les essais de conformité des composants avec les caractéristiques dans les conditions de service ainsi que les méthodes d'essai correspondantes à utiliser; d) les informations à donner ou à marquer sur le disjoncteur. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition, parue en 2003. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente: a) les valeurs normalisées des tensions transitoires de rétablissement et la procédure d'essai sont revues; b) modification de la procédure de vérification de l'échauffement; c) ajout de l'essai d'étanchéité comme essai de type et du mesurage de la résistance d'isolement.
