14 INTRODUCTION
15 The CDV proposed for Amendment 2 to IEC 61000-4-27 Ed. 1.1 (= IEC 61000-4-27:2000 plus
16 IEC 61000-4-27/AMD1:2009) is based on 77A/1189/DC, 77A/1198A/INF and follows
17 77A/1212/RR, 77A/1229/CD, 77A/1234/CC.
18 This CDV contains the following main changes in comparison with IEC 61000-4-27 ED 1.1:
19 The angles in table 1 (test levels) suggest a three-phase system with a negative phase sequence
20 while the intention is to have a positive phase sequence and thus the signs and values of all angles
21 in Table 1 should be corrected. In addition, the value of ku2 of class 2, test 3 is 28 % instead of
22 25 %. The Table 1 is modified accordingly
23 Class X is defined as special and levels 2 and 3 refers to Annex D instead of 61000-2-4.
24 UN is deleted from Table 1, and it is moved to the new clause 3 (Terms, definitions, and
25 abbreviations). The definition 3.5 UN nominal phase to neutral voltage is added.
26 In addition, the definition of rise and fall time is added (as in 61000-4-11 ed 3).
27 The text in Note 1 in Table 1 is deleted and replaced by “Ub is lagging against Ua, and Uc is
28 leading against Ua”.
29 In table 1 Add NOTE 2: The product committee may specify any test level; however, for equipment
30 connected to public supply systems, it Is recommended that the levels should not be lower than
31 those defined for class 2.
32 The sentence under Table 1 becomes NOTE 2 in the Table 1.
33 Some changes are introduced also in Table 2 (Characteristics of the generator). Main changes:
34 • Modified output current capability which must be able to provide a crest factor of at least 3
35 when UN applied to calibration load.
36 • Modified voltage rise time adding (from 10 %to 90 %)
37 • Modified phase shifting
38 • Modified phase accuracy (put 50 Hz or 60 Hz).
39 In clause 7 a sentence is added: The equipment under test (EUT) is set up at a steady mains
40 voltage
41 In clause 8.2 the last sentence “After each group of tests a full functional check shall be
42 performed.” Is deleted. In addition, Figure 2 is simplified.
43 In clause 10 updated Figures 1 and 2 are included.
44 A new informative Annex B is proposed which includes two different calculation methods:
45 • method 1 does not require complex or vector calculus.
46 • method 2 uses phasors and matrices but is more compact.
47 Both methods are mathematically equivalent.

48 TEXT OF THE AMENDMENT PROPOSAL
49 The title of Clause 3 “Definitions” is modified to:
50 3 Terms and definitions
52 3.3
53 unbalance factor k (%)
u2
54 Delete “ku2 = 100 % (U2 / U1)” and replace with the following text:
| |
𝑈𝑈
55 𝑘𝑘 = (negative-sequence voltage / positive-sequence voltage)
𝑢𝑢2
|𝑈𝑈 |
57 Add the following new definitions:
58 3.5 U
N
59 nominal phase to neutral voltage
61 3.6
62 rise time
63 interval of time between the instants at which the instantaneous value of a transition first reaches
64 a specified lower value and then a specified upper value
65 NOTE The lower and upper values are fixed at 10 % and 90 % of the transition magnitude.
66 [SOURCE: IEC 60050-161:1990, 161-02-05]
67 3.7
68 fall time
69 interval of time between the instants at which the instantaneous value of a transition first reaches
70 a specified upper value and then a specified lower value
71 NOTE The lower and upper values are fixed at 10 % and 90 % of the transition magnitude.
72 NOTE This definition is derived from IEC 60050-161:1990, 161-02-05.
74 5 Test Levels
75 In Table 1 “test levels”:
76 - The angles are modified from a three-phase system with a negative to a positive phase
77 sequence and thus the signs and values of all angles in Table 1 are to be corrected.
78 - The value of ku2 of class 2, test 3 is 28 % instead of 25 %.
79 - Test levels for Class X are tagged (“special”).
80 - NOTE 1 and NOTE 2 are modified.
82 Hence, Table 1 is modified as follows:
Test Test Test level for Class 2 Test level for Class 3 Test
