Insulation co-ordination - Part 2: Application guidelines

IEC 60071-2:2023 is available as IEC 60071-2:2023 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.IEC 60071-2:2023 constitutes application guidelines and deals with the selection of insulation levels of equipment or installations for three-phase AC systems. Its aim is to give guidance for the determination of the rated withstand voltages for ranges I and II of IEC 60071？1 and to justify the association of these rated values with the standardized highest voltages for equipment. This association is for insulation co-ordination purposes only. The requirements for human safety are not covered by this document. This document covers three-phase AC systems with nominal voltages above 1 kV, phase-to-earth, phase-to-phase and longitudinal insulation. It has the status of a horizontal standard in accordance with IEC Guide 108. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:

a) Clause 4 Concepts governing the insulation co-ordination has been added.

b) Subclause 5.3 has been revised, and Subclause 5.4 Detailed simulation has been added
