Introduction This introduction is not part of IEEE Std 1584b-2011, IEEE Guide for Performing Arc-Flash Hazard CalculationsAmendment 2: Changes to Clause 4. It is hoped that the changes to Clause 4 will he

8、lp improve the quality of the arc-flash studies being prepared for owners and other users by clarifying the wording to allow users to better understand the process. This amendment revises Clause 4 dealing with the process of performing an arc-flash hazard calculations study. The revisions are based

9、on the experiences of users of the guide with extensive experience in performing these studies since IEEE Std 1584-2002 was published in 2002. When the guide was written, there was little experience in performing these studies. Now the Working Group members have more experience applying the guide an

10、d can enable more accurate studies by others by incorporating their knowledge into the guide. Some of the existing wording in the guide has been found to be vague or open to interpretation. It is the intent of this amendment that the changes will improve the wording and make the standard easier to f

11、ollow. Notice to users Laws and regulations Users of these documents should consult all applicable laws and regulations.

NOTEThe editing instructions contained in this amendment define how to merge the material contained there

38、in into the existing base standard and its amendments to form the comprehensive standard. The editing instructions are shown in bold italic. Four editing instructions are used: change, delete, insert, and replace. Change is used to make corrections in existing text or tables. The editing instruction

39、 specifies the location of the change and describes what is being changed by using strikethrough (to remove old material) and underscore (to add new material). Delete removes existing material. Insert adds new material without disturbing the existing material. Insertions may require renumbering. If

40、so, renumbering instructions are given in the editing instruction. Replace is used to make changes in figures or equations by removing the existing figure or equation and replacing it with a new one. Editing instructions, change markings, and this NOTE will not be carried over into future editions b

41、ecause the changes will be incorporated into the base standard.

Delete the following reference: IEEE Std 141-1993, IEEE Recommended Practice for Electric Power Distribution for Industrial Pl

43、ants (IEEE Red Book) Insert the following reference alphabetically as it should appear in Clause 2: IEEE Std 551-2006, IEEE Recommended Practice for Calculating Short-Circuit Currents in Industrial and Commercial Power Systems (IEEE Violet Book) 4. Analysis process Change Clause 4 as follows: An arc

44、-flash hazard analysis should be performed in association with or as a continuation of the short-circuit study and protective-device coordination study. The process and methodology of calculating short-circuit currents and performing protective-device coordination is covered in IEEE Std 551-2006 (IE

45、EE Violet Book)141-1993 (IEEE Red Book) and IEEE Std 242-2001 (IEEE Buff Book), respectively. Although it is possible to perform a short-circuit study manually, using the rationale presented in these references, electrical system analysis software may be used to simplify the calculations for complex

46、 distribution systems. Programs provide for much more of the necessary information and may be accurate as long as network details are specifically modeled. They usually improve calculation accuracy, consistency of results, and facilitate the simulation of multiple configuration iterations. Results o

47、f the short-circuit study enable calculation of the arc-flash currents at potential fault points and in overcurrent protective devices. are used to determine the fault current momentary duty, interrupting rating, and short-circuit (withstand) rating of electrical equipment. Results of the protective

48、-device coordination study are used to determine the time required for electrical circuit protective devices to isolate overload or short-circuit conditions. Results of both short-circuit and protective-device coordination studies provide information needed to perform an arc-flash hazard analysis. R
