IEEE SA - P1613.1 - Standard Environmental and Testing Requirements for Communications Networking Devices Installed in Transmission and Distribution Facilities

This standard establishes the requirements for communications networking devices supporting electric transmission and distribution outside an electric power substation. It addresses issues such as equipment enclosures, temperature ranges, electrical phenomena, vibration and others that are characterized by a transmission and distribution environment. This includes the different communication methods used in these locations, such as wireless and Power Line Communications (PLC).
