IEEE Draft Standard for Series Capacitor Banks in Power Systems
Abstract
This standard represents an update to IEEE 824-2004. Series capacitor bank component and bank duty cycle ratings, equipment insulation levels, protective functions component testing, instruction books, nameplates, and safety are covered in this standard.Scope
The scope is a standard for series capacitor banks that are connected in series with the utility transmission system. The banks include capacitors and all the accessory equipment necessary to form a complete equipment. The scope is the same as the existing standard, however it is requested that the word "bank" be included in the title to clarify that the standard includes all of the associated equipment.
Purpose
The purpose of this standard is to provide the basis for design of fixed series capacitor banks. The standard will discuss all available technologies and the basis for ratings.
