Superseded Standard

IEEE C37.011-2011

IEEE Guide for the Application of Transient Recovery Voltage for AC High-Voltage Circuit Breakers

Procedures and calculations necessary to apply the standard transient recovery voltage (TRV) ratings for ac high-voltage circuit breakers rated above 1000 V are covered in this application guide. The breaking capability limits of these circuit breakers are determined to a great degree by the TRV. The TRV ratings are compared with typical system TRV duties. Examples of TRV calculation are given with suggested options if the TRV duty exceeds the TRV ratings of the circuit breaker.

C37.011-2005

IEEE Application Guide for Transient Recovery Voltage for AC High-Voltage Circuit Breakers

Revision of IEEE Std C37.011-1994 Procedures and calculations necessary to apply the standard transient recovery voltage (TRV) ratings for ac high-voltage circuit breakers rated above 1000 V and on a symmetrical current basis are covered. The capability limits of these circuit breakers are determined to a great degree by the TRV. TRV ratings are compared with typical system TRV duties.
