This guide introduces basic technical characteristics, operation life cycle assessment methods, and scrap disposal methods for fiber-reinforced composite electric power equipment. It applies to overhead line equipment made of fiber-reinforced composite materials, such as poles, frames, tools, and conductors. The guide provides two assessment approaches: accelerated aging evaluation for rapid life prediction and electromechanical combined simulation condition assessment for near real-scenario evaluation. It also covers environmentally compliant disposal procedures for retired equipment. The methods support product development, in-service condition monitoring, remaining life estimation, and end-of-life management to enhance safety, reliability, and sustainability of FRP-based power infrastructure.

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No Superseded Standards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No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards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
