1.1 These requirements cover the following types of transformers:

1. Air-cooled transformers and reactors for general use;
2. General purpose autotransformers;
3. Ferroresonant transformers;
4. Class 2 and Class 3 transformers (which are evaluated in accordance with Part 3);
5. Cord-connected transformers (which are evaluated in accordance with Part 2);
6. Transformers incorporating overcurrent or over-temperature protective devices, transient voltage surge protectors, or capacitors; and
7. Permanently-connected transformers.

1.2 These transformers are intended to be used in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or CSA C22.1, the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I. The Canadian Electrical Code defines low voltage as any voltage from 31 to 750 V inclusive and high voltage as any voltage above 750 V. The National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, defines low voltage as any voltage up to 600 V, nominal. Therefore, low voltage transformers intended for use in Canada may be rated above 600 V up to 750 V. Low voltage transformers intended for use in the United States are rated up to 600 V. Where information in clauses and tables in this standard reference voltage ranges, the limit of 600 V applies in the United States, while the limit of 750 V applies in Canada.

1.3 The standard does not cover the following transformers:

1. Direct plug-in types;
2. Neon;
3. Liquid-immersed;
4. Variable voltage (Variac);
5. Low voltage landscape;
6. Swimming pool and spa:
7. Ignition;
8. High intensity lighting;
9. Toy;
10. Fluorescent lamp types;
11. Transformers for welders;
12. Distribution;
13. Transformers intended for use in the United States with a nominal primary rating of more than 600 V;
14. Transformers incorporating rectifying or waveshaping circuitry;
15. Transformers for use with radio- and television-type appliances;
16. Transformers intended for use in the United States having overvoltage taps rated over 660 V;
17. Autotransformers used in industrial control equipment, which are evaluated in accordance with the requirements of the Standard for Industrial Control Equipment, UL 508, or CSA C22.2 No. 14, Industrial Control Equipment; and
18. Other special types of transformers covered in requirements for other electrical devices or appliances.

1.4 Part 1, as well as Part 2 and Part 3, establish the characteristics, construction, operating conditions, markings, and test conditions for each type of transformer.

1.5 The requirements in this standard may be modified by requirements in an end product standard if a transformer is intended for use only as a component in other equipment.

1.1 This Standard specifies the mechanical and electrical characteristics of three-phase network distribution transformers having rated primary voltages up to 34.5 kV and kV-A ratings of 500 to 2500 Note: It is possible that transformers complying with this Standard will, if operated by a body other than an electric utility, be subject to additional requirements imposed by the electric inspection authority having jurisdiction. 1.2 This Standard applies only to three-phase distribution transformer units intended for use in a ventilated vault or enclosure below grade level.

1.1 This Standard applies to uninterruptible power supplies (UPS). The primary function of the UPS covered by this Standard is to ensure continuity of an alternating power source. The uninterruptible power supplies can also serve to improve the quality of the power source by keeping it within specified characteristics. 1.2 This Standard is applicable to movable, stationary, fixed, and built-in UPS for distribution systems up to and including 600 V ac.

This standard specifies the type, production, and commissioning tests that shall be performed to demonstrate that the interconnection functions and equipment of a distributed resource (DR) conform to IEEE Standard P1547; Interconnection equipment that connects distributed resources (DR) to an electric power system (EPS) must meet the requirements specified in IEEE Standard P1547. Standardized test procedures are necessary to establish and verify compliance with those requirements.

Withdrawn Standard

The technical requirements for parallel generation are in place to ensure public and employee safety, protect the integrity of Toronto Hydro’s system, and guarantee reliable and quality service to Toronto Hydro customers. The technical requirements in this document are for the protection of Toronto Hydro's facilities, and the Generator should satisfy itself as to any requirements for the protection of its own facilities.

This standard is intended for distributor personnel in charge of integrating distributed generation into the distribution system. It is also intended for power producers with generating stations connected to the Hydro-Québec MV distribution system. They are required to comply with this standard.

The technical specifications for, and testing of, the interconnection between utility electric power systems (EPS) and distributed energy resources (DER) are the focus of this standard. It provides requirements relevant to the performance, operation, testing, safety considerations, and maintenance of the interconnection. It also includes general requirements, response to abnormal conditions, power quality, islanding, and test specifications and requirements for design, production, installation evaluation, commissioning, and periodic tests.

1.1 This Standard specifies the electrical requirements for safe interconnection of inverter-based micro-distributed resource (micro-DR) systems to low-voltage systems connected to distribution systems. The output of these systems is limited to 600 V (nominal) or less (single or three phase).
1.2 Intentional islanding conditions and interconnection to secondary networks are not covered in this Standard. Note: Inverter types and operating modes are provided in Annex F.
