Subject: [PSES] IEC Interrupt Current - High Breaking Capacity Test

 

Experts,

 

Can anyone point me to an IEC standard that details provisions for testing
interrupt currents or high breaking capacity in circuit breakers,
switchgear, etc.?

 

For instance, UL 489 - Molded-case circuit breakers has test provisions for
interrupt currents, and the UL card for DIVQ specifies that breakers have
been tested for a minimum of 5000A interrupt rating. 

 

Thanks,

 

 

DON GIES
