Scope

This standard specifies design tests for electrostatic discharge (ESD) tests of protective relays and relay systems. The object of the type test described in this standard is to confirm that the equipment being tested will not misoperate or be damaged when installed@ energized@ and subjected to a specified electrostatic discharge. Application of the discharge to any point on the equipment that is accessible only for repair and maintenance purposes is outside the scope of this standard.This standard contains four annexes. Annex A is a bibliography. Annex B is an explanation of ESD disturbance tests. Annex C is an explanation of an ESD generator. Annex D contains a comparison of IEEE Std C37.90.3-2001 with IEC 60255-22-2 Ed.2.0 (1996-09) [B4].1
