Standard Details
Information for selecting the proper circuit breaker for a particular application is provided. Application engineers are aided in specifying the type of circuit breaker, ratings, trip functions, and accessories. Circuit breakers for special applications, e.g., instantaneous only and switches are discussed. In addition, information for applying circuit breakers at different locations in the power system and for protecting specific components is provided.

This recommended practice covers the protection of bus and switchgear used in industrial and commercial power systems. It provides fault protection and isolation strategies for the substation bus and switchgear, including the bus, circuit breakers, fuses, disconnecting devices, transformers, and the structures on which they are mounted.

This recommended practice covers the selection and application of low-voltage fuses used in industrial and commercial power systems.
|
|
|
This recommended practice covers the selection and application of medium-and high-voltage fuses used in industrial and commercial power systems (I&CPS).
|
|
|
This recommended practice covers the protection of conductors used in main and branch power circuits in industrial and commercial power systems against damage from short circuits and overloads as well as against physical damage from mechanical hazards, adverse environmental conditions, and improper handling.

| Existing Standards |
The protection of motors used in industrial and commercial power systems is covered. It is likely to be of greatest value to the power-oriented engineer with limited experience in the area of protection and control. It can also be an aid to all engineers responsible for the electrical design of industrial and commercial power systems.
