BS EN 62271-205 applies to compact switchgear assemblies consisting of at least one switching device directly connected to, or sharing components with, one or more other devices such that there is an interaction between the functions of the individual devices. These compact switchgear assemblies are for indoor and/or outdoor installations in systems having rated voltages above 52 kV and service frequencies of 50 Hz and 60 Hz.
BS EN 62271-205 covers the influence on performance of the interactions between devices within compact switchgear assemblies and defines ratings and test procedures for these assemblies.
BS EN 62271-205 on high-voltage switchgear and controlgear is helpful for:
Having access to reliable guidelines is essential to prepare and use quality high-voltage switchgear and controlgear. BS EN 62271-205 provides manufacturers with the normal and special service conditions, the steps for compact switchgear assembly, the design and construction method and type and routine tests which allows them to manufacture and test high-voltage switchgear and controlgear effectively.
BS EN 62271-205 provides users with efficient and standardized high-voltage switchgear and controlgear.
