Measuring relays and protection equipment - Part 22-2: Electrical disturbance tests - Electrostatic discharge tests
IEC 60255-22-2:2008 specifies the general requirements for electrostatic discharge tests for measuring relays and protection equipment for power system protection, including the control, monitoring and process interface equipment used with those systems. Is based on IEC 61000-4-2. The object of the tests is to confirm that the equipment being tested will not mal-operate when energized and subjected to an electrostatic discharge. The main changes with respect to the previous edition are the improvement of the test severity level, test set-up and test report.
Relais de mesure et dispositifs de protection - Partie 22-2: Essais d'influence électrique - Essais de décharge électrostatique
La CEI 60255-22-2:2008 spécifie les exigences générales pour les essais de décharges électrostatiques des relais de mesure et des dispositifs de protection pour la protection des systèmes électriques, incluant les équipements de contrôle, de commande, et des interfaces procédés utilisés dans ces systèmes. Elle se base sur la CEI 61000-4-2. L'objet de ces essais est de confirmer qu'une fois mis sous tension et soumis à des décharges électrostatiques, les équipements testés fonctionneront correctement. Les modifications principales par rapport à l'édition précédente sont l'amélioration du niveau de sévérité de l'essai, du montage de l'essai et du rapport d'essai.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60255-22-2 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 95:
Measuring relays and protection equipment.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 1996. It constitutes a
technical revision.
The main changes with respect to the previous edition are listed below:
• the improvement of the scope and object,
• the improvement of the test severity level, test set-up and test report.

The requirements are applicable only to relays and protection equipment in new condition,
and all tests specified are type tests only.
The object of this standard is to state:
• definitions of terms used;
• test severity level;
• test equipment;
• test set-up;
