The standard covers electrical, dimensional, and mechanical characteristics, taking into consideration certain safety features, for current and inductively coupled voltage transformers of types generally used in the measurement of electricity and the control of equipment associated with the generation, transmission, and distribution of alternating current. The aim is to provide a basis for performance, interchangeability, and safety of equipment covered and to assist in the proper selection of such equipment. Accuracy classes for metering service are provided.

The recommended practice document provides recommended design practices and procedures for storage, location, mounting, ventilation, instrumentation, preassembly, assembly, and charging of VLA batteries. Required safety practices are also included. This document is applicable to full-float stationary applications where a battery charger normally maintains the battery fully charged and provides DC loads.

The guide was written to provide a relevant PV battery test procedure that can be used to evaluate battery performance and identify appropriate PV battery charging requirements. The document contains a tutorial on Lead-Acid battery technology, battery charging characteristics, and a laboratory test procedure to evaluate charge parameters and battery performance.

The guide is intended to provide assistance to users of stationary battery systems in determining appropriate battery management strategies that may be applied by addressing the primary similarities and differences in battery design and operation for standby versus cycling applications.

The guide was written to provide a PV hybrid power system battery test procedure that can be used to assist in evaluating battery capacity, and appropriate PV battery charging requirements.

1.1 This standard covers molded-case circuit breakers, circuit-breaker and ground-fault circuit interrupters, fused circuit breakers and accessory high-fault protectors. These circuit breakers are specifically intended to provide service entrance, feeder and branch circuit protection in accordance with the National Installation Codes in Annex B, Ref. 1. This standard covers instantaneous-trip circuit breakers (circuit interrupters) specifically intended as part of a combination motor controller in accordance with the National Installation Codes in Annex B, Ref. 1.

1.1 These requirements cover electrochemical capacitors for use in equipment such as electronic products, uninterruptible power supplies, emergency lighting, engine starting, and power equipment. These energy storage capacitors, also known as electric double-layer capacitors, ultra capacitors, double-layer capacitors or supercapacitors, consist of either individual capacitors or multiple series and/or parallel connected capacitors with or without associated circuitry.1.2 These requirements do not cover electrochemical capacitors for use in hazardous (Classified) locations.

1.1 These requirements cover primary (nonrechargeable) and secondary (rechargeable) lithium batteries for use as power sources in products.

Safety standard for stationary batteries for energy storage applications, non-chemistry specific and includes electrochemical capacitor systems or hybrid electrochemical capacitor and battery systems. Includes requirements for unique technologies such as flow batteries and sodium beta (i.e., sodium sulfur and sodium nickel chloride). Includes construction requirements, tests and production tests. Also includes requirements for cells used in these systems such as lithium-ion, nickel, Lead-Acid and includes sodium beta and flow battery requirements.

1.1 These requirements cover inverters, converters, charge controllers, and interconnection system equipment (ISE) intended for use in stand-alone (not grid-connected) or utility-interactive (grid-connected) power systems. 1.2 For utility-interactive equipment, these requirements are intended to supplement and be used in conjunction with the Standard for Interconnecting Distributed Resources With Electric Power Systems, IEEE 1547, and the Standard for Conformance Test Procedures for Equipment Interconnecting Distributed Resources with Electric Power Systems, IEEE 1547.1.
