8、arance Center. Introduction This introduction is not part of IEEE Std C37.13.1-2006, IEEE Standard for Definite-Purpose Switching Devices for Use in Metal-Enclosed Low-Voltage Power Circuit Breaker Switchgear. This is a new standard written specifically to provide requirements for switching devices
9、other than low-voltage power circuit breakers installed in low-voltage power circuit breaker switchgear. Definite-purpose switching (DPS) device in this standard means a switching device used on a frame in a manner similar to a power circuit breaker and installed in low-voltage power circuit breaker
10、 switchgear. This standard was developed because several incidents in the industry indicated that switching devices (switching devices utilizing contactors) were being improperly designed, applied, and installed in low-voltage power circuit breaker switchgear. This standard is limited to DPS devices
11、 using contactors protected by current-limiting fuses. Additional types of DPS devices may be addressed in future revisions of this standard.
