IEC 61869-1

is the foundational "Product Family Standard" for instrument transformers. It provides the general requirements and definitions applicable to all types of newly manufactured instrument transformers used in electrical systems with nominal voltages above 1 kV AC or 1.5 kV DC. Core Purpose and Scope

• Outdated Versions: IEC standards are periodically updated (e.g., IEC 61869-1:2007 vs. a newer edition). Older PDFs may not reflect current safety requirements.
• Incomplete Content: Unofficial scans may be missing annexes or diagrams.
• Security Risks: Such files are often vehicles for malware.

Accuracy and Error Limits

: Establishes permissible limits for ratio and phase angle errors for both analogue and digital outputs. iec 618691 pdf

• Action: check clause on service conditions and altitude correction; require insulation levels and dielectric tests suitable for the site altitude or apply appropriate derating.

Scope:

Covers design, testing, and performance requirements for inductive current transformers (CTs), inductive voltage transformers (VTs), capacitor voltage transformers (CVTs), and electronic/optical instrument transformers. IEC 61869-1 is the foundational "Product Family Standard"

It applies to newly manufactured instrument transformers with either analogue or digital outputs for systems with nominal voltages above Technical Consolidation: The latest 2023 edition (IEC 61869-1:2023) merged with IEC 61869-6:2016 Accuracy and Error Limits : Establishes permissible limits

Operating Conditions

: Defines normal service conditions, such as ambient temperature limits (standardly ) and altitude requirements.

IEC 61869-1 establishes the baseline definitions, safety requirements, and testing protocols.

: Clause 5.7 specifies accuracy requirements for harmonics and requirements for anti-aliasing filters in digital outputs. Frequency Range : Covers rated frequencies from 15 Hz to 400 Hz , including DC applications. iTeh Standards 2. Service & Environmental Conditions Environment
