Other Activities From This Working Group

Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.


PC37.27
Guide for Low-Voltage AC (635 V and below) Power Circuit Breakers Applied with Separately-Mounted Current-Limiting Fuses

This guide applies to unfused low-voltage ac power circuit breakers of the 635 V maximum voltage class with separately-mounted current-limiting fuses for use on ac circuits with available short-circuit currents of 200 000 A (rms symmetrical) or less. Low-voltage ac fused power circuit breakers and combinations of fuses and molded-case circuit breakers are not covered by this guide. In this guide, the term circuit breaker means unfused low-voltage ac power circuit breaker.

Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.


No Active Standards

These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.


C37.27-1987
IEEE Standard Application Guide for Low-Voltage AC Nonintegrally Fused Power Circuit Breakers (Using Separately Mounted Current-Limiting Fuses)

Low-voltage power circuit breakers of the 600 V insulation class with separately mounted current-limiting fuses, for use on ac circuits with available short-circuit current of 200 000 A (rms symmetrical) or less, are covered. Guidance is provided respecting coordination of circuit breaker and fuse, location of fuses, open fuse trip devices, addition of fuses to existing installations, protection of connected equipment, and tested combinations of circuit breakers and fuses.
