Directions and requirements are provided for the conversion of qualified power switchgear equipment. Examples such as low-voltage power circuit breakers; high-voltage outdoor and medium-voltage indoor drawout power circuit breakers; low- and medium-voltage fused contactors; low- and medium-voltage ground and test devices; medium-voltage fused load interrupter switches; and all metal-enclosed switchgear are covered. Existing design standards are referenced with appropriate guidance on design testing necessary to design-verify the conversions.

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.
C37.59-1991
IEEE Standard Requirements for Conversion of Power Switchgear Equipment
Superseded by C37.59-1996 . Power switchgear equipment that is converted from the original manufacturer's designs, whether the conversion is performed in manufacturing plants or at installation sites, is covered.
C37.59-1996
IEEE Standard Requirements for Conversion of Power Switchgear Equipment
Power switchgear equipment that is converted from the original manufacturer's designs, whether the conversion is performed in manufacturing plants or at installation sites, is covered.
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No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards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
