scope:
This test procedure summarizes the various tests that are made on ac high-voltage indoor and outdoor circuit breakers, except for generator circuit breakers, which are covered in IEEE Std C37.013-1997. It describes accepted methods used in making the tests and specifies the tests that will verify assigned ratings under ANSI/IEEE standards. This procedure does not preclude the use of other equivalent or more effective methods of demonstrating ratings.
The tests are divided into the following classifications:
a) Design tests (Referred to in IEC 60056-1987 and IEC 60694-1996 as Type Tests)
b) Production tests (Referred to in IEC 60056-1987 and IEC 60694-1996 as Routine Tests)
c) Tests after delivery
d) Conformance tests
