This guide provides the definition, formation, and characteristics of fast-front and very fast-front overvoltages. The various measuring techniques, including technical details that may be adopted for field application, are also described. Field measurement results measured using the techniques described in this guide are included for reference. This guide supports the development of field measuring systems for fast-front and very fast-front overvoltages in electric power systems (including sensors, signal transmission devices, and recording instruments). This guide applies to single-phase Gas-Insulated switchgear (GIS) tubes, air insulated substations (AIS), and other equipment with a voltage level of 110 kV and above.

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
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.
No Superseded Standards
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No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards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.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
