20、national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Tech
21、nical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory wor
22、k. International, governmental and non- governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2
23、) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommen
24、dations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any e
25、nd user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional public
26、ation shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independ
27、ent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any per
28、sonal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative re
29、ferences cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible f
30、or identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 62561-3 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 81: Lightning protection. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, published in 2012. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes
31、the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition. a) a new classification has been added related to ISGs location installation; b) an updated flow chart of tests has been developed. IEC 62561-3:2017 IEC 2017 5 The text of this International Standard is based on the fo
32、llowing documents: FDIS Report on voting 81/561/FDIS 81/566/RVD Full information on the voting for the approval of this International Standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This document has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. A list o
33、f all parts in the IEC 62561 series, published under the general title Lightning protection system components (LPSC), can be found on the IEC website. The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the stability date indicated on the IEC website under “http:
34、/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related to the specific document. At this date, the document will be reconfirmed, withdrawn, replaced by a revised edition, or amended. A bilingual version of this publication may be issued at a later date. 6 IEC 62561-3:2017 IEC 2017 INTRODUCTION This part of IEC 62561
35、 deals with the requirements and tests for lightning protection system components (LPSC), specifically isolating spark gaps (ISG) used for the installation of a lightning protection system (LPS) designed and implemented according to the IEC 62305 series. IEC 62561-3:2017 IEC 2017 7 LIGHTNING PROTECT
36、ION SYSTEM COMPONENTS (LPSC) Part 3: Requirements for isolating spark gaps (ISG) 1 Scope This part of IEC 62561 specifies the requirements and tests for isolating spark gaps (ISG) for lightning protection systems. ISGs can be used to indirectly bond a lightning protection system to other nearby meta
37、lwork where a direct bond is not permissible for functional reasons. Typical applications include the connection to earth-termination systems of power installations, earth-termination systems of telecommunication systems, auxiliary earth electrodes of voltage-operated, earth fault circuit breakers,
38、rail earth electrode of power and DC railways, measuring earth electrodes for laboratories, installations with cathodic protection and stray current systems, service entry masts for low-voltage overhead cables, bypassing insulated flanges and insulated couplings of pipelines. This does not cover app
39、lications where follow currents occur. NOTE Lightning protection system components (LPSC) can also be suitable for use in hazardous conditions such as fire and explosive atmosphere. Due regard will be taken of the extra requirements necessary for the components to be installed in such conditions. 2
