The test requirements for system commissioning, applicable to dc (direct current) distribution networks with voltage levels from 750 V to ±50 kV, are specified in this guide. Included in the guide are the following aspects: converter [ac (alternating current)/dc, dc/dc] test; dc circuit breaker test; test of active and passive network conversion; test of the operation characteristics of low voltage dc islanded operation system; test of feeder power balance system; coordinated operation test of medium and low voltage dc system; plug and play system test; small power system test; large power system test; rated load test; overload test; short circuit test; and trial operation.

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No Superseded Standards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No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards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
