IEEE Recommended Practice for Test Procedures for High-Voltage Direct-Current Thyristor Valves
Abstract
Information and recommendations for the type testing of thyristor valves for high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) power transmission systems are provided. These tests cover only the principal tests on the valves and do not include tests of auxiliary equipment associated with the values.Scope
Test procedures for thyristor valves used in the transmission of high voltage DC power.
Purpose
Revise the existing recommended practice to provide information and recommendations that are current with anticipated technological advances.
