High-current test techniques - Definitions and requirements for test currents and measuring systems (IEC 62475:2010)

This International Standard is applicable to high-current testing and measurements on both high-voltage and low-voltage equipment. It deals with steady-state and short-time direct current (as e.g. encountered in high-power d.c. testing), steady-state and short-time alternating current (as e.g. encountered in high-power a.c. testing), and impulse-current. In general, currents above 100 A are considered in this International Standard, although currents less than this can occur in tests. This standard: - defines the terms used; - defines parameters and their tolerances; - describes methods to estimate uncertainties of high-current measurements; - states the requirements which a complete measuring system shall meet; - describes the methods for approving a measuring system and checking its components; - describes the procedure by which the user shall show that a measuring system meets the requirements of this standard, including limits set for uncertainty of measurement.

Techniques des essais à haute intensité - Définitions et exigences relatives aux courants d'essai et systèmes de mesure (CEI 62475:2010)

La CEI 62475:2010 s'applique aux essais et mesures à haute intensité sur des matériels haute et basse tensions. Elle couvre les essais à haute intensité en courant continu et courant alternatif en régime établi et de courte durée ainsi que des essais de courant de choc. De manière générale, la présente Norme internationale prend en compte des courants de plus de 100 A, même si des intensités moindres peuvent apparaître dans les essais. La présente norme couvre également la détection de défauts, comme par exemple dans le cadre d'essais aux chocs de foudre.

Visokotokovne preskusne tehnike - Definicije in zahteve za preskusne toke in merilne sisteme (IEC 62475:2010)

Ta mednarodni standard velja za visokotokovno preskušanja in merjenja za visokonapetostno in nizkonapetostno opremo. Obravnava ustaljeni in kratkotrajni enosmerni tok (kot je npr. pri preskušanju visokonapetostnega enosmernega toka), ustaljeni in kratkotrajni izmenični tok (kot je npr. pri preskušanju visokonapetostnega izmeničnega toka) ter impulzni tok. Na splošno se v tem mednarodnem standardu obravnavajo tokovi nad 100 A, čeprav se lahko v preskusih pojavijo manjši tokovi. Ta standard: - opredeljuje uporabljene izraze; - opredeljuje parametre in njihova odstopanja; - opisuje metode za ocenjevanje negotovosti meritev visokega toka; navaja zahteve, ki jih mora izpolnjevati celotni merilni sistem; - opisuje metode za odobritev merilnega sistema in preverjanje njegovih komponent; - opisuje postopke, s katerim uporabnik prikaže, da merilni sistem izpolnjuje zahteve tega standarda, vključno z mejnimi vrednostmi, postavljenimi za negotovost meritve.
