Description / Abstract:
SCOPE AND OBJECT
This part of IEC 61800 applies to general purpose adjustable
speed d.c. drive systems which include the power conversion,
control equipment, and also a 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.
NOTE – In the United States, the line voltage is not more than
600 V a.c.
EMC aspects are covered in IEC 61800-3.
U.S. NOTE - EMC Immunity and Emission requirements of IEC
61800-3 are not applicable within the US. This part of IEC 61800
gives the characteristics of the converters and their relationship
with the complete d.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.
