PC57.12.29 - Standard for Pad-Mounted Equipment--Enclosure Integrity for Coastal Environments

Project Details

This standard covers conformance tests and requirements for the integrity of above-grade pad-mounted enclosures intended for installation in coastal environments containing apparatus energized in excess of 600 V that may be exposed to the public including, but not limited to, the following types of equipment enclosures: Pad-mounted distribution transformers; Pad-mounted capacitors or inductors; Pad-mounted junction enclosures; Pad-mounted metering equipment; Pad-mounted switchgear; Pad-mounted voltage regulators. This standard does not cover installations that are under the exclusive control of electric utilities and that are located in such a manner that access to the equipment is controlled exclusively by the utility.
