Guidelines and criteria for the design of substations that can withstand the effects of earthquakes are provided. These recommendations comprise an up-to-date summary of aseismic design practices that will be useful to substation engineers for effective aseismic design of substations and related facilities. Seismic criteria and performance requirements are set forth, qualification methods are discussed, and design and construction practices are presented.

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No Superseded Standards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No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards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
