11/260/CDV INTERNATIONAL ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION 1 ––––––––––– 2 OVERHEAD LINES – 3 Requirements and tests for aeolian vibration dampers 4

5 FOREWORD 6 1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising 7 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote 8 international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To 9 this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is 10 entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may 11 participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising 12 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International 13 Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the 14 two organizations. 15 2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an 16 international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation 17 from all interested National Committees. 18 3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form 19 of standards, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense. 20 4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International 21 Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any 22 divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly 23 indicated in the latter. 24 5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any 25 equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards. 26 6)

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject 27 of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. 28 International Standard IEC 61897 has been prepared by Maintenance Team MT1: 29 Maintenance of TC 11 documents, of IEC Technical Committee 11: Overhead lines. 30

31 This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1998. This edition 32 constitutes a technical revision. 33

34 This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the 35 previous edition: 36

37 a) Consider, in addition to Stockbridge type aeolian vibration dampers, also Spiral 38 aeolian vibration dampers and Elastomeric aeolian vibration dampers 39

40 b) Consider the application of dampers on high temperature conductors, specifying 41 additional high temperature tests in clamp slip tests 42

43 c) Simplify the procedure of the damper effectiveness evaluation 44
45 d)

Introduce test at low temperature on fastener components such as break away bolts

46 and conical spring washers 47
48 e) Update the normative references 49

50 f) Include figures showing the test arrangements for the main mechanical tests 51

11/260/CDV damper, during installation, can be suspended on the conductor before tightening the 150 clamp; 151 – ensure that individual components will not become loose in service; 152 – maintain its function over the entire service temperature range; 153 – avoid audible noise; 154 – prevent water collection. 155 NOTE – Other desirable characteristics which are not essential to the basic functions of the damper but which may 156 be advantageous include: 157 – verification of proper installation from the ground; 158 – easy installation and removal from energized lines. 159 In the case of vibration dampers for conductors or earth wires containing integral fibre optic elements (or an 160 externally applied optical cable wrapped around the earth wire) the possible effects of the damper on these fibre 161 optic elements should be accounted for. 162 4.2 Materials 163 The materials shall conform to the requirements of IEC 61284. 164 4.3 Mass, dimensions and tolerances 165 Damper mass and significant dimensions, including appropriate tolerances, shall be shown on 166 contract drawings. 167 4.4 Protection against corrosion 168 In addition to the applicable requirements of IEC 61284, the messenger cable (including cut 169 ends when exposed) shall be protected against corrosion, e.g. in accordance with IEC 60888 170 for hot dip galvanized steel wire. 171 4.5 Manufacturing appearance and finish 172 The dampers shall be free of defects and irregularities; they shall have all outside surfaces 173 smooth and all edges and corners well-rounded. 174 4.6 Marking 175 The fitting marking requirements of IEC 61284 shall be applied to all clamp assemblies 176 including those using breakaway bolts. On spiral dampers, the markings should be on the 177 plastic rod.

178 4.7 Installation instructions 179 The supplier shall provide a clear and complete description of the recommended installation 180 procedure including in-span positions. 181 5 Quality assurance 182 A quality assurance programme taking into account the requirements of this standard can be 183 used by agreement between the purchaser and the supplier to verify the quality of the 184 vibration dampers during the manufacturing process. 185 Detailed information on the use of quality assurance is given in a system as per ISO 9001 or 186 similar.

187 It is recommended that test equipment used to verify compliance to this standard is routinely 188 maintained and calibrated in accordance with a relevant quality standard. 189 oSIST prEN IEC 61897:2019

11/260/CDV 6 Classification of tests 190 6.1 Type tests 191 6.1.1 General 192 Type tests are intended to establish design characteristics. They are normally made once and 193 repeated only when the design or the material of the damper components is changed. The 194 results of type tests are recorded as evidence of compliance with design requirements. 195 6.1.2 Application 196 Dampers shall be subjected to type tests as per Table 1. 197 Unless otherwise specified, each type test shall be performed on three test samples which are 198 identical in all essential respects with dampers to be supplied under contract to the purchaser. 199 All units shall pass the tests. 200 The dampers used for tests during which no damage occurs to the units or their components 201 may be used in subsequent tests. 202 6.2 Sample tests 203 6.2.1 General 204 Sample tests are required to verify that the dampers meet the performance specifications of 205 the type test samples. In addition, they are intended to verify the quality of material and 206 workmanship. 207 6.2.2 Application 208 Dampers shall be subjected to sample tests as per Table 1. 209 The samples to be tested shall be selected at random from the lot offered for acceptance. The 210 purchaser has the right to make the selection. 211 The dampers used for tests during which no damage occurs to the units or their components 212 may be used in subsequent tests. 213 6.2.3 Sampling, acceptance criteria 214 The sampling plan procedures according to ISO 2859-1 and ISO 2859-2 (inspection by 215 attributes) and ISO 3951 (inspection by variables) and the detailed procedures (inspection 216 level, AQL, single, double or multiple sampling, etc.) shall be agreed between the purchaser 217 and the supplier for each different attribute or variable. 218 NOTE – Sampling inspection by variables is an acceptance sampling procedure to be used in place of inspection 219 by attributes when it is appropriate to measure on some continuous scale the characteristic(s) under consideration. 220 In the case of failure load tests and similar expensive tests, better distinction between acceptable quality and 221 objective quality is available with acceptance sampling by variables than by attributes for the same sample size. 222 The purpose of the sampling process may also be important in the choice between a variables or attributes plan. 223 For example, a purchaser may choose to use an attributes acceptance sampling plan to assure that parts in a 224 shipment lot are within a required dimensional tolerance; the manufacturer may make measurements under a 225 variables sampling plan of the same dimensions because he is concerned with gradual trends or changes which 226 may affect his ability to provide shipment lots which meet the AQL. 227 6.3 Routine tests 228 6.3.1 General 229 Routine tests are intended to prove conformance of vibration dampers to specific 230 requirements and are made on every damper. The tests shall not damage the dampers. 231 6.3.2 Application and acceptance criteria 232 Whole lots of dampers may be subjected to routine tests. Any damper which does not conform 233 to the requirements shall be discarded. 234 oSIST prEN IEC 61897:2019

243 7 Test methods 244 7.1 Visual examination 245 Type tests shall include visual examination to ascertain conformity of the dampers in all 246 essential respects, with the manufacturing or contract drawings. Deviations from the drawings 247 shall be subject to the approval of the purchaser and shall be appropriately documented as an 248 agreed concession. 249 Sample tests and, if required, routine tests shall include visual examination to ensure 250 conformity of manufacturing process, shape, coating and surface finish of the damper with the 251 contract drawings. Particular attention shall be given to markings required and to the finish of 252 surfaces which come into contact with the conductor. The sample test procedure and 253 acceptance criteria shall be agreed between the purchaser and the supplier. 254 For dampers subjected to corona type test, the sample test shall include a comparison of 255 shape and surface finish with one of the corona type test samples when specified by the 256 purchaser. 257 oSIST prEN IEC 61897:2019
