This International Standard applies to capacitors for power electronics applications. The operating frequency of the systems in which these capacitors are used is usually up to 15 kHz, while the pulse frequencies may be up to 5 to 10 times the operating frequency. The document...
The series capacitor units and banks are usually intended for high-voltage power systems. This standard is applicable to the complete voltage range. This standard does not apply to capacitors of the self-healing metallized dielectric type. The following capacitors, even if connected in series with a circuit, are excluded from this standard:
The rated voltage of a capacitor is limited to 10 000 V. (The operating frequency of the systems in which these capacitors are used is usually up to 15 kHz, while the pulse frequencies may be up to 5 to 10 times the operating frequency.)
The recommendations for the capacitor part are given in IEC 60143-1:2004. Specific information about protective equipment can be found in Clause 3 and 10.6. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1994 and constitutes a technical revision.
This document provides standard requirements and general guidelines for the design, performance, testing and application of low-voltage dry-type alternating current (AC) power capacitors rated 1,000V or lower, and for connection to low-voltage distribution systems operating at a nominal frequency of 50Hz or 60Hz.
IEC 60143-2:2012 covers protective equipment for series capacitor banks with a size larger than 10 Mvar per phase. Protective equipment refers to the main circuit apparatus and ancillary equipment, which are part of a series capacitor installation, but which are external to the capacitor part itself.
