HIGH-VOLTAGE SWITCHGEAR AND CONTROLGEAR –

Part 112: Alternating current high-speed earthing switches
for secondary arc extinction on transmission lines

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 itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
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.
IEC 62271-112 has been prepared by subcommittee 17A: Switching devices, of IEC technical
committee 17: High-voltage switchgear and controlgear. It is an International Standard.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2013. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
The document has been updated to the second edition of IEC 62271-1:2017.

3.1 General terms and definitions
3.1.101
secondary arc
arc that remains at the faulted point after interruption of the short-circuit current fed by the
network
Note 1 to entry: This secondary arc is supplied by electrostatic or electromagnetic induction from the adjacent live
phases.
3.1.102
single-phase auto-reclosing scheme
auto-reclosing scheme in which a faulted phase circuit is opened and automatically re-closed
independently from the other phases
3.1.103
multi-phase auto-reclosing scheme
auto-reclosing scheme applied to double circuit overhead lines in which all faulted phase circuits
are opened and re-closed independently provided that at least two different phases remain un-
faulted
Note 1 to entry: An example of multi-phase auto-reclosing scheme is indicated in Figure 1.

2) Only the faulted phases have been tripped Open circuit-breaker

3) All circuit-breakers at both ends re-closed Re-closed circuit-breaker


Figure 1 – Explanation of a multi-phase auto-reclosing scheme
Note 2 to entry: Other than the scheme described in 3.1.102 and 3.1.103, a three-phase auto-reclosing scheme is
commonly applied. In this scheme, all three phases of one circuit are tripped and re-closed at both ends even if a
fault occurred in one phase. So far high-speed earthing switches are rarely applied with this scheme.

successive fault
additional earth fault that occurs in the adjacent phase circuit(s) during the time interval between
a single-phase earth fault and the opening of the high-speed earthing switch(es)

time of the circuit-breakers after the HSESs open, the duration of a new line fault and the
break-time of the circuit-breakers. Following this time t , the HSES can be reclosed. The

6.12 Locking devices
Subclause 6.12 of IEC 62271-1:2017 is not applicable.
6.101 Anti-pumping device
Anti-pumping device shall be provided for pneumatic and hydraulic operating mechanism.
6.102 Special requirements for HSES
A HSES shall be able to earth transmission lines and re-open to achieve their full voltage
withstand within the dead time of the auto-reclosing duty cycle of the transmission line circuit-
breakers. The dead time is defined by system stability and is normally set around 1 s enabling
dielectric recovery of insulation capability at the fault location. Fast operating capability for both
making and breaking is required.
