IEEE 1137-1991/Cor 1-2009

This Corrigendum corrects the Recommended value in Table 3 Longitudinal Balance Performance Thresholds. This Corrigendum also corrects the last sentence in the third paragraph of Clause 8.5.

Corrigendum Standard - Superseded. IEEE Std 1137-1991 provides guidance for controlling or modifying the inductive environment and the susceptibility of affected wire line telecommunications facilities in order to operate within the acceptable levels of steady-state or surge induced voltages of the environmental interface (probe wire) defined by IEEE Std 776-1987. Procedures for determining the source of the problem are given. Mitigation theory and philosophy are discussed, and mitigation devices are described. The application of typical mitigation apparatus is addressed. Advice for determining the best engineering solution is offered, and general safety considerations are discussed. This corrigendum corrects Table 3—Longitudinal Balance Performance Thresholds and the first and last sentences of the third paragraph in 8.5 of IEEE Std 1137-1991.
