Existing Standards	Active IEEE 1692-2011 - IEEE Guide for the Protection of Communication Installations from Lightning Effects The document addresses methods and practices necessary to reduce the risk of damages to communications equipment within structures arising from lightning surges causing GPR (ground potential rise) and similar potential differences.
	Active IEEE 789-2013 - IEEE Standard Performance Requirements for Communications and Control Cables for Application in High-Voltage Environments Information to assist in determining the electrical parameters of communication and control cables necessary to improve the overall reliability of these cables when used in high-voltage environments is the objective of this standard. There should be a very high probability (greater than 99%) that these cables will perform their intended function for specified periods of time in high-voltage interference conditions. The end result being more reliable communications over said cables. The information presented in this standard will apply equally to either new or existing [already installed] cables.
	Active IEEE 487.4-2013 - IEEE Standard for the Electrical Protection of Communication Facilities Serving Electric Supply Locations Through the Use of Neutralizing Transformers Engineering design procedures for the electrical protection of communication facilities serving electric supply locations through the use of neutralizing transformers are presented in this standard.
	Active IEEE 487.5-2013 - IEEE Standard for the Electrical Protection of Communication Facilities Serving Electric Supply Locations Through the Use of Isolation Transformers Engineering design procedures for the electrical protection of communication facilities serving electric supply locations through the use of isolation transformers are presented in this standard. These isolation transformers are hard-wired (i.e., have no plug-in units and are not modular).
	Active IEEE 487.2-2013 - IEEE Standard for the Electrical Protection of Communication Facilities Serving Electric Supply Locations through the Use of Optical Fiber Systems Safe and reliable methods for the electrical protection of telecommunication facilities serving electric supply locations through the use of optical fiber systems for the entire facility are presented in this standard.
	Active IEEE 487.3-2014 - IEEE Standard for the Electrical Protection of Communication Facilities Serving Electric Supply Locations Through the Use of Hybrid Facilities Safe and reliable methods for the electrical protection of telecommunication facilities serving electric supply locations through the use of metallic wire-line components in part of the telecommunication circuit and optical fiber systems in the remainder of the telecommunication circuit are presented in this standard. Hybrid applications have an equipment junction between the metallic wire-line and the fiber cable, i.e., a wire-line?fiber cable junction (CFJ).
