Low-voltage surge protective devices - Part 12: Surge protective devices connected to low-voltage power distribution systems; Selection and application principles
This parts of IEC 61643 describes the principles for selection, operation, location and co-ordination of SPDs to be connected to 50 Hz to 60 Hz a.c. and to de. power circuits and equipment rated up to 1 000 V r.m.s, or 1 500 V d.c.
NOTE 1 Additional requirements may be necessary for special applications such as electrical traction, etc.
NOTE 2 It should be remembered that IEC 60364 is also applicable.
NOTE 3 This standard deals only with SPDs and not with SPDs components integrated inside equipment.
