Series capacitors for power systems - Part 1: General
Applies to both 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. Focuses primarily 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 formulates uniform rules regarding performance, testing and rating, formulates specific safety rules and serves as a guide for installation and operation.
Reihenkondensatoren für Starkstromanlagen - Teil 1: Allgemeines
Condensateurs série destinés à être installés sur des réseaux - Partie 1: Généralités
S'applique aux condensateurs unitaires et aux batteries de condensateurs destinés à être raccordés en série sur une ligne de transport ou de distribution d'énergie faisant partie d'un réseau alternatif de fréquence comprise entre 15 Hz et 60 Hz. Traite principalement des applications sur les réseaux de transport. Les condensateurs série et les batteries de condensateurs série sont habituellement destinés aux réseaux d'énergie à haute tension. Cette norme s'applique à toute la gamme de tensions. La présente norme formule des règles uniformes en ce qui concerne la qualité, les essais et les caractéristiques assignées, formule des règles spécifiques de sécurité et sert de guide pour l'installation et pour l'exploitation.

(CEI 60143-1:2004) (IEC 60143-1:2004)
This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2004-03-01. CENELEC members are bound to
comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European
Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration.
Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on
application to the Central Secretariat or to any CENELEC member.
This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and
notified to the Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.
CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden,

Foreword
The text of document 33/400/FDIS, future edition 4 of IEC 60143-1, prepared by IEC TC 33, Power
capacitors, was submitted to the IEC-CENELEC parallel vote and was approved by CENELEC as
EN 60143-1 on 2004-03-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 60143-1:1993 + corrigendum October 1994.
The main changes with respect to the previous edition regard in particular the old section 3 "Insulation
level" that has been deeply modified and the new subclause 6.3 "Air clearances" has been added. In
addition, many technical changes have been introduced throughout the text regarding tests and
operation.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2004-12-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2007-03-01
Annex ZA has been added by CENELEC.
