(Main)Electrical safety in low voltage distribution systems up to 1 000 V AC and 1 500 V DC - Equipment for testing, measuring or monitoring of protective measures - Part 13: Hand-held and hand-manipulated current clamps and sensors for measurement of leakage currents in electrical distribution systems (IEC 61557-13:2023)
Electrical safety in low voltage distribution systems up to 1 000 V AC and 1 500 V DC - Equipment for testing, measuring or monitoring of protective measures - Part 13: Hand-held and hand-manipulated current clamps and sensors for measurement of leakage currents in electrical distribution systems (IEC 61557-13:2023)
IEC 61557-13:2023 defines special performance requirements for hand-held and hand manipulated current clamps and sensors for measurement of leakage currents in electrical distribution systems up to 1 000 V AC and 1 500 V DC taking into account the influence of high external low-frequency magnetic fields and other influencing quantities. See Annex A for examples of measurement applications.
This document does not apply to current clamps or sensors that are used in combination with devices for insulation fault location in accordance with IEC 61557-9, unless it is specified by the manufacturer.
IEC 61557-13:2023 cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2011. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) the term "fixing device" has been removed;
b) the measuring range was changed to a display range, the indication of DC or peak values has been added in 4.1;
c) the frequency for the test of sensitivity for low-frequency magnetic fields has been defined in 4.2;
d) the specified measuring range is now defined as the range of indicated values based on the operating uncertainty in 4.3;
e) alignment of the structure with that of the whole IEC 61557 series;
f) the variation E12 (maximum load current), may be specified according to the manufacturer’s specification.

L'IEC 61557-13:2023 définit les exigences spécifiques de qualités de fonctionnement relatives aux pinces et capteurs de courant portatifs et manipulés à la main, en vue de la mesure des courants de fuite dans les réseaux de distribution électriques jusqu'à 1 000 V en courant alternatif et 1 500 V en courant continu en prenant en compte l’influence des champs magnétiques externes à basse fréquence élevés et autres grandeurs d’influence. Voir l'Annexe A pour des exemples d'applications de mesure.
Le présent document ne s'applique pas aux pinces et capteurs de courant utilisés en association avec des dispositifs prévus pour la localisation des défauts d'isolement conformes à l'IEC 61557‑9, sauf spécification de la part du fabricant à ce sujet.
L'IEC 61557-13:2023 annule et remplace la première édition publiée en 2011. Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
a) le terme "dispositif de fixation" a été supprimé;
b) la plage de mesure a été remplacée par une plage d'affichage, et l'indication des valeurs de courant continu ou des valeurs de crête a été ajoutée au 4.1;
c) la fréquence de l'essai de sensibilité aux champs magnétiques à basse fréquence a été définie au 4.2;
d) la plage de mesure spécifiée est désormais définie comme la plage des valeurs indiquées fondées sur l'incertitude de fonctionnement au 4.3;
e) alignement de la structure sur celle de toute la série IEC 61557;
f) la variation E12 (courant de charge maximal) peut être spécifiée selon la spécification du fabricant.
