Scope and objectives

When conformance tests are required, this Standard specifies tests to demonstrate that the circuit breaker being tested conforms with the ratings assigned to it in accordance with ANSI/IEEE C37.04. Preferred ratings are listed in ANSI C37.06. As a requirement of conformance testing, the circuit breaker shall have completed the design testing requirements of ANSI/IEEE C37.09. If ANSI/IEEE C37.09 tests have not been previously performed, the tests required by ANSI/IEEE C37.09 beyond tests described by this Standard may be performed concurrently with conformance testing.

Note: Additional tests per ANSI/IEEE C37.09 need not be witnessed by the certifying party.
