Active Standard

IEEE 421.3-2016

IEEE Standard for High-Potential Test Requirements for Excitation Systems for Synchronous Machines

High-potential test voltages for excitation systems used with synchronous machines are established. Test voltages are established based on whether equipment is connected to the exciter power circuit or is electrically isolated from the exciter power circuit.

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No Superseded Standards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No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards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
