    Definition
  • IEC/TS 62257-7-1:2010(E) specifies the general requirements for the design and the safety of generators used in decentralized rural electrification systems. Provides requirements for ELV and LV PV arrays.
  • IEC/TS 62257-7-3:2008(E) specifies the general requirements for the selection, sizing, erection and operation of generator sets in decentralized rural electrification systems. Applies to all low voltage combustion engine electricity generator sets with a rated power up to 100 kVA, and designed(...)
  • Proposes simple, inexpensive, comparative tests in order to discriminate easily, in a panel of automotive flooded lead-acid batteries the most acceptable model for PV Individual Electrification Systems.
  • IEC 62257-9-1:2008(E) applies to a micropower plant which is the electric energy generation subsystem associated with a decentralized rural electrification system. It provides general requirements for the design, erection and operation of micropower plants and general requirements to ensure(...)
  • Specifies the general requirements for the design and the implementation of microgrids used in decentralized rural electrification to ensure the safety of persons and property and their satisfactory operation according to the scheduled use.
  • Specifies the general requirements for the design and the implementation of the interface equipment within the user's installation which connects to a microgrid or the generating part of a standalone system.
  • Specifies the general requirements for the design and the implementation of a user's installation. Applies to single phase user's electrical installations with maximum power of 500 VA, in decentralized rural electrification systems.
  • IEC/TS 62257-9-5:2013(E) applies to stand-alone rechargeable electric lighting appliances or kits that can be installed by a typical user without employing a technician. This technical specification presents a quality assurance framework that includes product specifications (a framework for(...)
  • IEC 62257-9-6:2008(E) proposes a simple selection procedure and cheap, comparative tests which can be performed in laboratories of developing countries, in order to identify the most suitable model of small Photovoltaic Individual Electrification Systems (PV- IES) up to 500 Wp for a particular(...)
  • Proposes comparative tests that could be particularly useful for project implementers to test in laboratories of developing countries the capability of products to be used for their project. The tests can be performed locally, as close as possible of the real site operating conditions.
  • IEC/TS 62282-1:2013 provides uniform terminology in the forms of diagrams, definitions and equations related to fuel cell technologies in all applications including but not limited to stationary power, transportation, portable power and micro power applications.
  • IEC/TS 62282-7-1:2010(E) covers cell assemblies, test apparatus, measuring instruments and measuring methods, performance test methods, and test reports for PEFC single cells.
  • Provides an introduction to the remaining parts of the IEC 62351 series, primarily to introduce the reader to various aspects of information security as applied to power system operations. The scope of the IEC 62351 series is information security for power system control operations. Its(...)
  • IEC 62351-2:2008 (E) covers the key terms used in the IEC 62351 series, and is not meant to be a definitive list. Most terms used for cyber security are formally defined by other standards organizations, and so are included here with references to where they were originally defined.
  • Specifies how to provide confidentiality, tamper detection, and message level authentication for SCADA and telecontrol protocols that make use of TCP/IP as a message transport layer.
  • Specifies procedures, protocol extensions, and algorithms to facilitate securing ISO 9506 - Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) based applications. It is intended that this technical specification be referenced as a normative part of other IEC TC 57 standards that have the need for using(...)
  • Specifies messages, procedures, and algorithms for securing the operation of all protocols based on or derived from the standard IEC 61850. Applies to at least those protocols of IEC 61850-8-1, IEC 61850-9-2 and IEC 61850-6.
  • IEC/TS 62351-7:2010(E) defines network and system management (NSM) data object models that are specific to power system operations. These NSM data objects are used to monitor the health of networks and systems, to detect possible security intrusions, and to manage the performance and(...)
  • IEC/TS 62548:2013(E) sets out design requirements for photovoltaic (PV) arrays including d.c. array wiring, electrical protection devices, switching and earthing provisions. The scope includes all parts of the PV array up to but not including energy storage devices, power conversion equipment(...)
  • IEC/TS 62600-1:2011(E) defines the terms relevant to ocean and marine renewable energy. For the purposes of this Technical Specification, sources of ocean and marine renewable energy are taken to include wave, tidal current, and other water current energy converters.
