: It includes specific factors for altitude, insulator diameter ( Kdcap K sub d ), and installation position (horizontal vs. vertical). Recommended Structure for Your Content
: Identify the maximum continuous operating AC voltage.
: Allows utilities to specify exact geometric demands to international manufacturers.
: Calculate the Reference Unified Specific Creepage Distance (RUSCD) based on a site’s pollution severity (SPS) class.
. According to the standard, he had to apply critical correction factors for the insulators' diameter, altitude, and shed profile to ensure they wouldn't flashover under the salty grime.
into one of five classes:
IEC 60815 is a multi-part standard. The basis for the structure, definitions, and general methodology is fully laid out in ( Definitions, information and general principles ). Therefore, Part 1 and Part 2 are meant to be used together. Part 2 then builds on this foundation with the specific guidelines and tools needed for its target insulator class.
Without this table, you are under-sizing your insulators by 30-40%, guaranteeing a flashover during the first dry fog season.
: Establish your base SPS class using IEC 60815-1.
The standard abandons old "rule-of-thumb" design methods. Instead, it uses a structured, site-specific engineering process. 1. Determine Site Pollution Severity (SPS)
Thus, the provides the decision matrix, not just a single number.
: A more streamlined approach for evaluating ceramic and glass profile suitability. Practical Resources Revising IEC/TS 60815 Series & IEC 62217 - - INMR
Before selecting an insulator, the environment must be characterized. IEC 60815-1 defines five Site Pollution Severity classes ranging from Very Light to Very Heavy:
: How to use the "simplified method" versus the "statistical method" for critical infrastructure. Accessing the PDF
Guidelines for DC systems (both ceramic/glass and composite). Core Methodology of IEC 60815-2
: Prevents over-engineering insulators in low-pollution areas.
Guidelines on how to utilize laboratory artificial pollution tests to verify custom insulator profiles.
