CODE OF PRACTICE FOR SELECTION, INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE OF SWITCHGEAR AND CONTROLGEAR
PART I GENERAL

0. FOREWORD
0.1 This Indian Standard ( Part I ) was adopted by the Indian Standards Institution on 26 February 1982, after the draft finalised by the Code of Practice for Power Installation and Maintenance Sectional Committee had been approved by the Electrotechnical Division Council. 0.2 The object of this series of standards is to provide guidelines for the selection, installation and maintenance of switchgear and controlgear and itssociated equipment. 0.3 It has been generally felt that the requirements of switchgcar of different voltage ratings can be conveniently covered in a single standard. Keeping this in view, the Indian Standard IS : 3072-1975 was brought out to cover equipments for indoor and outdoor use. Equipments so covered included circuit-breakers, isolators and other switches operating on ac or dc. Separate Indian Standards had been formulated as follows, for detailed Codes of Practices for fuses, ac induction motor starters, high voltage ac circuit-breakers and other switches : IS : 3106-1966 Code of practice for selection, installation and maintenance of fuses ( voltage not exceeding 650 volts ), IS : 3914-1967 Code of practice for selection of ac inductor motor starters (voltage not exceeding 1 000 volts ), IS : 5124-1969 Code of practice for installation and maintenance induction motor starters ( voltage not exceeding 1 000 V ), of ac

IS : 5987-1970 Code of practice fnr selection rif switches ( voltage not exceeding 1 000 V ), and IS : 7987-1976 Guide for selection of high voltage ac circuit-breakers,

0.6 In the preparation of this standard, considerable assistance has been derived from the information coutainccl in the Indian Standards listed in 0.3. <>n publication of this slatidartl ( Paris I to IV ), the Indiatl Standards in 0.3 would stand withdrawn. 0.7 During the drafting of the various parts of this standard, 111~expert Panel, responsible for the same, had kept in view the fact that this standard could at best give guidance on the bulk of the equipment used in the country and should be understood in the manner; that aspects relating to selection, installation,or maintenance of EHV equipment as well as those intended for very special application would have to bo supplemented with additional data, not attempted by the present series. 0.8 For the purposes ofready reference, a list covering switchgear and controlgear equipment The Codes of practice, read together with the specification on the equipment would provide of product specifications are given in Appendix A. relevant Indian Standard the necessary guidelines.

0.9 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test, shall be rounded off in accordance with IS:2-1960*. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off vnluc should be theaame as that of the specified value in this standart].

3.2.1 The engineer slmultl oblaill well in advance all rc:lt:vartt inkrITliltioJ1 wr:igllt fix transport, installation, ctc, about the overall dinxnsions, of the switchgear in question. Special precautions may be essential for lhc protection of insulation during shipment and prior to energizing to prevenl moisture absorption due to rain, snow or condensation. These may include shipment of insulating parts in oil to prevent contamination. Appropriate instructions should be given in this regard. When the circuit-breaker is dismantIed for transport, all parts should be clearly marked, drawings showing assembly of these parts and a packing list should Ix supplied to the user. *Electrotechnical vocabulary: Part XVII Slvitchgear and controlgear (,l;rst rcuision 1. 5

5. CATEGORIZATION OF EQUIPMENT

5.1 It is an accepted practice to broadly classify switchgear and controlgear equipment based on rated voltage. Low voltage switchgear and controlgear arc those intended for rated voltage up to and including 1 OOOV ac 01 1 200 V dc, and high voltage switchgear and controlgcar arc those intended l;)r voltages above 1 000 V ac. Individual equipment are further classified depending on the method Product classifications arc (~1operation or on the type of construction. covered in Part i1 of this standard.
