BS EN 60060-3:2006
This standard BS EN 60060-3:2006 High voltage test techniques is classified in these ICS categories:
- 17.220.20 Measurement of electrical and magnetic quantities
- 19.080 Electrical and electronic testing
This part of IEC 60060 is applicable to the following on-site test voltages and in service stresses, which are in relation to IEC 60060-1:
direct voltage;
alternating voltage;
lightning impulse voltage of aperiodic or oscillating shape;
switching impulse voltage of aperiodic or oscillating shape.
For special tests the following voltages are used:
very low frequency voltage;
damped alternating voltage.
This standard is applicable to equipment with a highest voltage Um greater than 1 kV. The selection of on-site test voltages, test procedures and test voltage levels for apparatus, equipment or installations is under the responsibility of the relevant technical committee. For special applications, on-site test voltages different from those described in this standard may be specified by the relevant technical committee.
NOTE 1 The different voltage waveforms listed above do not necessarily provide equal stress on the test object.
NOTE 2 The selection of the test voltage levels should take the larger tolerances and measuring uncertainties into account.
