12、IONAL STANDARD Approval of an American National Standard requires verification by ANSI that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, sub

13、stantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution.

14、 The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has approved the standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. The American

This standard has been developed to describe selected tests and procedures to demonstrate conformance in accordance with Section 6 of Tests, of American National St

29、andard for Metal-Enclosed Interrupter Switchgear, ANSI/IEEE C37.20.3-2001. To facilitate its use and to permit timely revisions based on experience, a separate document has been provided. This standard is one of several in a series of test procedures for conformance testing of switchgear products. A

30、lthough this standard is written for general guidance, performance criteria are established so that this standard can be adopted as the basis for certification of indoor ac medium-voltage switches for use in metal-enclosed switchgear for nonutility installations subject to regulation by public autho

This standard was prepared by a Working Group sponsored by the Power Switchgear Assemblies Technical Committee of the Switchgear Section of the National Electrical Manufacturers A

32、ssociation (NEMA 8SG-V). During the course of its preparation, coordination has been maintained with the Power Switching Equipment Technical Committee of the Switchgear Section of the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA 8SG-VI) and the Switchgear Committee of the Power Engineering So

33、ciety of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. Through this joint effort over many years, the switchgear assemblies standards have been of extreme value to the industry and further suggestions for improvement gained in the use of this standard will be welcomed. Suggestions for impro

34、vement of this standard will be welcome. They should be sent to the National Electrical Manufacturers Association, 1300 North 17th Street, Suite 1752, Rosslyn, VA 22209.

40、This standard is a conformance testing standard optionally applicable to all metal-enclosed interrupter switchgear assemblies designed, tested, and manufactured in accordance with ANSI/IEEE C37.20.3. The requirement of ANSI/IEEE C37.20.3 is sufficient for application of metal-enclosed interrupter sw

41、itchgear assemblies, and conformance testing is not necessary to satisfy the basic requirements of that standard. Conformance testing is performed to show compliance with the basic requirements when required to satisfy special agreements or regulatory agency requirements. Conformance testing may be

42、performed associated with the basic design testing if agreeable to those concerned; however, conformance testing is more likely to be performed some time after original development to satisfy a special need. Conformance testing need not be performed if not required. Metal-enclosed interrupter (MEI)

43、switchgear may include control and instrumentation components unique for the application, which are not individually evaluated under this standard. NOTEIn this standard, the use of the term “MEI switchgear“ shall be considered to mean “metal-enclosed interrupter switchgear.“ This standard does not c

44、over equipment intended for use in installations under the exclusive control of electric utilities for the purpose of communication or metering, or for the generation, control, transformation, transmission, and distribution of electric energy located in buildings used exclusively by utilities for su

45、ch purposes or located outdoors on property owned or leased by the utility or on public highways, streets, or roads, or outdoors by established rights on private property. NOTEAn electric utility is an entity that is overseen by a public utility commission, a public service commission, or other regu

46、latory agency having jurisdiction for such installations. 1.1 General This standard specifies the tests that shall be required to demonstrate that the MEI switchgear being tested conforms with the ratings assigned to it and meets the electrical and mechanical performance requirements specified in AN

47、SI/IEEE C37.20.3. 1.2 Definitions 1.2.1 Design tests Design tests are tests made by the manufacturer to determine the adequacy of the design of a particular type, style, or model of equipment or its component parts to meet its assigned ratings and to operate satisfactorily under normal service condi

48、tions or under special conditions if specified. Design tests may be used to demonstrate compliance with applicable standards of the industry. 1 ANSI C37.57-2003 (R2010) NOTES (1) Design tests are made on representative apparatus or prototypes to verify the validity of design analysis and calculation

49、 methods and to substantiate the ratings assigned to all other apparatus of basically the same design. These tests are not intended to be made on every design or to be used as part of normal production. The applicable portion of these design tests may also be used to evaluate modifications of a previous design and to assure that performance has not been adversely affected. These data from previous similar designs may also be used for current designs, where appropriate. Once made, the tests need not be repeated unless the design is changed so as
