ADJUSTABLE SPEED ELECTRICAL POWER DRIVE SYSTEMS –
Part 2: General requirements – Rating specifications for low voltage
adjustable frequency a.c. power drive systems
FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the 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, the IEC publishes International Standards. 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. The 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 the 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 National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61800-2 has been prepared by IEC technical sub-committee 22G:
Semiconductor power converters for adjustable speed electric drive systems, of IEC technical
committee 22: Power electronics.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
22G/40/FDIS 22G/44/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
Annexes A, B, C, D, E, F, and G are for information only.

ADJUSTABLE SPEED ELECTRICAL POWER DRIVE SYSTEMS –
Part 2: General requirements – Rating specifications for low voltage
adjustable frequency a.c. power drive systems
1 General
1.1 Scope and object
This part of IEC 61800 applies to general purpose adjustable speed a.c. drive systems which
include power conversion, control equipment, and also an a.c. motor or motors. Excluded are
traction and electrical vehicle drives.
It applies to systems connected to line voltages up to 1 kV a.c., 50 Hz or 60 Hz, and load side
frequency up to 600 Hz.
EMC aspects are covered in IEC 61800-3.
This part of IEC 61800 gives the characteristics of the converters and their relationship with the
complete a.c. drive system. It also states their performance requirements with respect to
ratings, normal operating conditions, overload conditions, surge withstand capabilities, stability,
protection, a.c. line earthing, and testing. Furthermore, it deals with application guidelines,
such as control strategies, diagnostics, and topologies.
This part of IEC 61800 is intended to define a complete a.c. PDS in terms of its performance
and not in terms of individual subsystem functional units.
1.2 Normative references
The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text,
constitute provisions of this part of IEC 61800. At the time of publication, the editions indicated
were valid. All normative documents are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based
on this part of IEC 61800 are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most
recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. Members of IEC and ISO maintain

2.4 CDM, BDM and converter input parameters
Symbols defined in 2.4 are included in table 1
2.4.1
rated system voltage U
LN
RMS input line-to-line voltage at the supply terminals of the customers installation to which the
PDS will be connected
2.4.2
rated system frequency f
LN
frequency in Hertz of the power input system alternating voltage
2.4.3
line-side rated a.c. voltage U
VN
rated r.m.s. line-to-line input voltage at the a.c. terminals of the line-side converter, which has
been designated as the basis for the converter rating
NOTE – This voltage may differ from the rated system voltage (U ) due to the use of transformers and the effect of
LN
impedance. Some drives may have an input transformer with primary voltage higher than 1000 V. In this case
transformer and protective devices have to meet this standard and other relevant IEC standards. Capacitively
coupled high voltage from primary to secondary winding must be bypassed to earth (see annex B).

maximum r.m.s. value of current on the line-side of the CDM/BDM under rated conditions. It
takes into account rated load and the most onerous combination of all other conditions within
their specified ranges, for example line voltage and frequency deviations
NOTE – This current includes currents supplied to the auxiliary circuits of the CDM/BDM. It takes into account the
effect of d.c. current ripple and circulating current, if any.
2.4.5
rated input current I
VN
maximum r.m.s. value of current on the valve side of the converter under rated conditions. It
takes into account rated load and the most onerous combination of all other conditions within
their specified ranges, for example line voltage and frequency deviations
2.4.6
line-side harmonic content
quantity obtained by subtracting, from an alternating quantity, its fundamental component
[IEV 551-17-04, applied to the line-side of the system]
NOTE – For example, for voltage (from a practical approach and with interharmonics neglected), the r.m.s. value of
the harmonic content is:
