Active Standard

IEEE C50.13-2014

IEEE Standard for Cylindrical-Rotor 50 Hz and 60 Hz Synchronous Generators Rated 10 MVA and Above

The requirements in this standard are applied to 50 Hz and 60 Hz, two-pole and four pole, cylindrical-rotor synchronous generators driven by steam turbines and/or by combustion gas turbines. The drive may be direct or through a gearbox or other device that permits different speeds for the turbine and the generator. The generators covered by this standard are to have rated outputs of 10 MVA and above.

Other Activities From This Working Group

Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.


PC50.13

Standard for 50 and 60 Hz Synchronous Generators for Non-Hydraulic Applications Rated 10 MVA and Above

The requirements in this standard apply to all 50 Hz and 60 Hz synchronous generators driven by various sources such as reciprocating engines, steam turbines and/or by combustion gas turbines. The drive may be direct or through a gearbox or other device that permits different speeds for the turbine and the generator. Also included are synchronous compensators (condensers) of the same output range connected to a grid. Hydraulic driven applications are covered in ANSI/IEEE C50.12. The generators covered by this standard are to have rated outputs of 10 MVA and above. Generators below this rating are generally covered by NEMA-MG 1 [B19]

Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.


No Active Standards

These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.


C50.13-2005

IEEE Standard for Cylindrical-Rotor 50 Hz and 60 Hz Synchronous Generators Rated 10 MVA and Above

The requirements in this standard are applied to 50 Hz and 60 Hz, two-pole and four-pole, cylindrical-rotor synchronous generators driven by steam turbines and/or by combustion gas turbines. The drive may be direct or through a gearbox or other device that permits different speeds for the turbine and the generator. The generators covered by this standard are to have rated outputs of 10 MVA and above.

These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.


No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards

These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
