Classification of environmental conditions - Part 2-2: Environmental conditions appearing in nature - Precipitation and wind

IEC 60721-2-2:2012 presents fundamental properties, quantities for characterization, and a classification of environmental conditions dependent on precipitation and wind relevant for electrotechnical products. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, published in 1988, and constitutes a technical revision. The main changes with regard to the previous edition are as follows: - subclause Precipitation: simplified; - data not possible to validate are removed; - subclause Wind: text rewritten; - Table 1 simplified and aligned with definition used by [1]; - subclause Hail: data added; - formula changed; - formula for impact energy added; - subclause Snow: text changed and aligned with definitions used by [1]; - Table 3 removed; - subclause Normal rain: text has been modified and numeric values removed; - subclause Driving rain: text has been modified and numeric values removed; - subclause Formation of ice: text has been modified and numeric values removed; - subclause Drifting snow: text added; - subclause Wind force: formula changed; - Figure 1 to 5 removed.

Les modifications principales par rapport à l'édition précédente sont les suivantes: - paragraphe Précipitations: simplifié et les données dont la validation est impossible sont supprimées; - paragraphe Vent: texte de nouveau rédigé; - Tableau 1 simplifié et aligné avec la définition utilisée par [1]; - paragraphe Grêle: données ajoutées; modification de formule; - ajout d'une formule de l'énergie d'impact; - paragraphe Neige: texte modifié et aligné avec les définitions utilisées par [1]; - Tableau 3 retiré; - paragraphe Pluie normale: modification du texte et suppression de valeurs numériques; - paragraphe Pluie battante: modification du texte et suppression de valeurs numériques; - paragraphe Formation de glace: modification du texte et suppression de valeurs numériques; - paragraphe Neige transportée: ajout de texte; - paragraphe Force du vent: modification de formule; - suppression des Figures 1 à 5.

Klasifikacija okoljskih pogojev - 2-2. del: Okoljski pogoji v naravi - Padavine in veter

Ta del standarda IEC 60721 navaja temeljne lastnosti, količine za karakterizacijo ter klasifikacijo okoljskih vplivov, odvisno od padavin in vetrovnih razmer, ki vplivajo na delovanje elektrotehničnih proizvodov. Uporablja se kot dodatni material pri izbiri ustreznih stopenj parametrov v zvezi s padavinami in vetrom za uporabo proizvoda. Pri izbiri stopenj parametrov v zvezi s padavinami in vetrom za uporabo proizvoda je treba uporabiti vrednosti, podane v standardu IEC 60721-1.
