IEEE C62.41.2-2025

IEEE Recommended Practice on Characterization of Surges in Low-Voltage (1000 V and Less) AC Power Circuits

The surge environment at locations on ac power circuits described in IEEE Std C62.41.1™ is characterized in this recommended practice by means of standardized waveforms and other stress parameters. The surges considered in this recommended practice do not exceed one half-cycle of the normal mains waveform (fundamental frequency) in duration.…

IEEE 2814-2025

IEEE Recommended Practice for Techno-Economic Metrics of Grid Power Generators and Energy Storage Systems

Techno-economic terminologies used in the construction and operation of low-carbon power generation and energy storage systems are defined. Techno-economic terminologies lack consistent definitions in today's evolving low-carbon power generation and electrical energy storage. Stakeholders will be supported in using a common language when planning standards and for understanding published industrial…
