AS IEC 61800.5.1:2024

Full Description

AS IEC 61800.5.1:2024 identically adopts IEC 61800‑5‑1:2022 and its Corrigendum No. 1 (2023), which specify requirements for adjustable speed electrical power drive systems (PDS) or their elements, with respect to electrical, thermal, fire, mechanical, energy and other relevant hazards. It does not cover the driven equipment except for interface requirements. It applies to adjustable speed electrical PDS which include the power conversion, basic drive module (BDM)/complete drive module (CDM) control, and a motor or motors.

Excluded are traction and electric vehicle BDM/CDM.

It applies to low-voltage adjustable speed electrical PDS intended to feed a motor or motors from a BDM/CDM connected to phase-to-phase voltages of up to and including 1,0 kV AC (50 Hz or 60 Hz) and up to and including 1,5 kV DC.

It also applies to high-voltage adjustable speed electrical PDS intended to feed a motor or motors from a BDM/CDM connected to phase-to-phase voltages of up to and including 35 kV AC (50 Hz or 60 Hz) and up to and including 52 kV DC.

This document also applies to PDS which intentionally emit or receive radio waves for the purpose of radio communication.
