IEC TS 62001-3:2026(Main)

High-voltage direct current (HVDC) systems - Guidance to the specification and design evaluation of AC filters - Part 3: Modelling aspects

IEC TS 62001-3:2026 provides in-depth consideration regarding three particularly important aspects of design, which are also mentioned elsewhere in other parts of the IEC 62001 series, which are: AC network impedance modelling, the treatment of pre‑existing harmonics in performance and rating calculations, and harmonic interaction across converters (cross-modulation).
This document concentrates on passive AC filter technology and line-commutated high-voltage direct current (HVDC) converters, but much of the content is equally relevant to VSC converter technology. Where there is a distinction, this is indicated in the text.
The scope of this document covers AC side filtering for the frequency range of interest in terms of harmonic distortion and audible frequency disturbances. It excludes filters specifically designed to be effective in the PLC and radio interference spectra.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to IEC TR 62001‑3:2016:
a) added Clause 3 on terms and definitions;
b) added new Clause 4;
c) rearranged Clause 5, Clause 6 and Clause 7;
d) updated Bibliography.

IEC TS 62001-2:2026 gives a guidance to the specification and design evaluation of AC filters of high-voltage direct current HVDC) systems, specifically on harmonic performance aspects. This document focusses on three specific areas of interest. Clause 4 discusses telephone interference related to the operation of HVDC transmission, including the derivation of appropriate harmonic limits. Clause 5 deals with all aspects of current-based harmonic performance criteria and their application. Clause 6 is concerned with field measurement and verification of compliance with specified harmonic limits.

IEC 61803:2026(Main)

Determination of power losses in high-voltage direct current (HVDC) converter stations

IEC 61803:2026 applies to all high-voltage direct current (HVDC) converter stations with line-commutated converters (LCC) as well with voltage-sourced converters (VSC) used for power exchange (power transmission or back-to-back installation) in utility systems. For line-commutated converters (LCC), this document presumes the use of 12-pulse thyristor converters but can, with due care, also be used for 6-pulse thyristor converters. Where VSC is referred to in this document, it is assumed to be of the MMC-type or similar, with very low harmonic generation. It is important to treat other types of VSC as appropriate. In some applications, synchronous compensators, static var compensators (SVC), or static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) are connected to the AC bus of the HVDC converter station. The loss determination procedures for such equipment are not included in this document. This document presents a set of standard procedures for determining the total losses of an HVDC converter station, except for VSC valves which are covered by the IEC 62751 series. The procedures cover all parts, except as noted above, and address no-load operation and operating losses together with their methods of calculation which use, wherever possible, measured parameters. Converter station designs employing novel components or circuit configurations compared to the typical design assumed in this document, or designs equipped with unusual auxiliary circuits that can affect the losses, are assessed on their own merits.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) HVDC stations with voltage-sourced converters (VSC) technology have been included;
b) to facilitate the application of this document and to ensure its quality remains consistent, 5.1.8 and 5.8 have been reviewed, taking into consideration that the present thyristor production technology provides considerably less thyristor parameters dispersion comparing with the situation in 1999 when the first edition of IEC 61803 was developed; therefore, the production records of thyristors can be used for the power losses calculation;
c) the calculation of the total station load losses (cases D1 and D2 in Annex C) has been corrected.

IEC 62501:2024 applies to self-commutated converter valves, for use in a three-phase bridge voltage sourced converter (VSC) for high voltage DC power transmission or as part of a back-to-back link, and to dynamic braking valves. It is restricted to electrical type and production tests. This document can be used as a guide for testing of high-voltage VSC valves used in energy storage systems (ESS). The tests specified in this document are based on air insulated valves. The test requirements and acceptance criteria can be used for guidance to specify the electrical type and production tests of other types of valves. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) Conditions for use of evidence in lieu are inserted as a new Table 1;
b) Test parameters for valve support DC voltage test, 7.3.2, and MVU DC voltage test, 8.4.1, updated;
c) AC-DC voltage test between valve terminals, Clause 9, is restructured and alternative tests, by individual AC and DC voltage tests, added in 9.4.2;
d) Partial discharge test in routine test program is removed;
e) More information on valve component fault tolerance, Annex B, is added;
f) Valve losses determination is added as Annex C.

Power losses in voltage sourced converter (VSC) valves for high-voltage direct current (HVDC) systems - Part 2: Modular multilevel converters

IEC 62751-2:2014 gives the detailed method to be adopted for calculating the power losses in the valves for an HVDC system based on the "modular multi-level converter", where each valve in the converter consists of a number of self-contained, two-terminal controllable voltage sources connected in series. It is applicable both for the cases where each modular cell uses only a single turn-off semiconductor device in each switch position, and the case where each switch position consists of a number of turn-off semiconductor devices in series (topology also referred to as "cascaded two-level converter"). The main formulae are given for the two-level "half-bridge" configuration but guidance is also given as to how to extend the results to certain other types of MMC building block configuration.

IEC TR 62543:2022(Main)

High-voltage direct current (HVDC) power transmission using voltage sourced converters (VSC)

IEC TR 62543:2022 gives general guidance on the subject of voltage sourced converters (VSC) used for transmission of power by high voltage direct current (HVDC). It describes converters that are not only voltage sourced (containing a capacitive energy storage medium and where the polarity of DC voltage remains fixed) but also self-commutated, using semiconductor devices which can both be turned on and turned off by control action. The scope includes 2‑level and 3-level converters with pulse-width modulation (PWM), along with multi-level converters, modular multi-level converters and cascaded two-level converters, but excludes 2‑level and 3-level converters operated without PWM, in square-wave output mode. HVDC power transmission using voltage sourced converters is known as "VSC transmission". The various types of circuit that can be used for VSC transmission are described in this document, along with their principal operational characteristics and typical applications. The overall aim is to provide a guide for purchasers to assist with the task of specifying a VSC transmission scheme. Line-commutated and current-sourced converters are specifically excluded from this document. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- in Clause 3, some redundant definitions which were identical to those listed in IEC 62747 have been deleted;
- in 4.3.4, description and diagrams have been added for the cases of a bipole with dedicated metallic return and a rigid bipole;
- in 4.4, mention is made of the bi-mode insulated gate transistor (BiGT) and injection enhanced gate transistor (IEGT) as possible alternatives to the IGBT;
- in 5.6, the reference to common-mode blocking reactors has been deleted since these are very rarely used nowadays.
