Thank you all. I decided to contact TC57 which prepared this standard and let’s 
see.

When I went once more through standard, I think it is really like apparent 
power. So it shall be equal to power consumption of power supply under normal 
load.

Below extract from standard – clauses with word Burden.

Best regards,
Boštjan

5.4 Rated burden
The burden for the power supply (a.c. including power factor/d.c.) at quiescent 
state and
maximum load.
The maximum start-up inrush current of the power supply circuits shall also be 
stated.



6.1.3 Auxiliary supplies, I/O
6.1.3.1 General requirements for marking
For marking the following should be taken into account:
• a.c. – with symbol 2 of Table 3 and rated frequency or frequency range;
• d.c. – with symbol 1 of Table 3;
• symbol 3 of Table 3 on equipment for a.c. and d.c. supply;
• a hyphen (-) shall be used to separate the lower and upper nominal voltages, 
for example,
125 V-230 V;
• the burden in watts (active power) or volt-amperes (apparent power) or the 
rated input
current, with all accessories or plug-in modules connected.
The documentation shall specify the burden of individual digital inputs, output 
relays and
other I/O ports of significant burden in order for the user to calculate the 
worst-case
burden for the equipment application.
The values shall be measured with the equipment powered at nominal voltage, but 
not be
operational.
The measured value shall not exceed the marked value by more than 10 %;


6.1.3.2 Auxiliary supply
The following information shall be provided on the equipment and in the 
documentation:
• a.c. and/or d.c. supply;
• the rated values.
• in the documentation:
• the burden.
6.1.3.3 Inputs
The following information shall be provided in the documentation:
• a.c. and/or d.c. supply;
• the rated values;
• burden on the supply input.

6.1.3.4 Outputs
The following information shall be provided in the documentation:
• the kind of output, for example, relay, optocoupler etc;
• burden on the supply input;
• the switching capability on/off;
• the switching voltage;
• the permissible current, continuous value and short time value for 1 s;
• withstand voltage across open contacts.
Compliance with 6.1.3.1 to 6.1.3.4 is checked by inspection or by measurement.

6.8 Burden test
Burden 6.8.1 for AC power supply
6.8.1.1 Typical load condition
The equipment is powered at rated auxiliary energizing voltage with typical 
load of all input
and outputs. The test shall be carried out by voltamperes (VA) measurement. The 
maximum
value of 5 consecutive tests shall be used for burden claim.
6.8.1.2 Inrush current and power-up duration
The equipment is switched on at rated auxiliary energizing voltage. The peak 
value of input
current during power-up, the duration from switching instant to the instant 
that input current
gets to within 10 % of quiescent state current shall be recorded. The maximum 
value of
5 consecutive tests shall be used for inrush current and power-up duration 
claim.

I agree with John’s comment.  I will add that standard writing panels 
(committees) should use their vocabulary with intelligence.  Any ambiguous 
terms should be defined somewhere in part one of IEC 61850.  I don’t have a 
copy, and the IEC preview doesn’t help.

I will hazard a guess that in this context, the adjective “intelligent” means a 
power supply that is able to communication over a network for the exchange of 
data and for remote control or configuration.

I think you are required to state the power consumption of every port that 
consumes power. If your SMPS really is 'intelligent', then the standard 
applies. But I wonder what the relevant definition of 'intelligent' is. There 
appears to be no method of measurement for IQ!

Dear all,

Is anyone familiar with burden test according IEC 61850-3 standard? Is this 
test applicable for switch mode  power supply with AC input and DC output?

How to conduct the test? What is the idea of the test?

Standard is not really clear.

Thank you for your support.

Best regards,
Bostjan
