IEC 61954 Redline version

IEC 61954:2021 RLV
Static VAR compensators (SVC) - Testing of thyristor valves
IEC 61954:2021 RLV contains both the official IEC International Standard and its Redline version. The Redline version is available in English only and provides you with a quick and easy way to compare all the changes between the official IEC Standard and its previous edition.

IEC 61954:2021 defines type, production and optional tests on thyristor valves used in thyristor controlled reactors (TCR), thyristor switched reactors (TSR) and thyristor switched capacitors (TSC) forming part of static VAR compensators (SVC) for power system applications. The requirements of the document apply both to single valve units (one phase) and to multiple valve units (several phases). Clauses 4 to 7 detail the type tests, i.e. tests which are carried out to verify that the valve design meets the requirements specified. Clause 8 covers the production tests, i.e. tests which are carried out to verify proper manufacturing. Clauses 9 and 10 detail optional tests, i.e. tests additional to the type and production tests. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: important clarifications were made in 4.4.1.2, 5.1.2.2, 5.1.3.2, 5.2.3.2, 6.1.2.2, 6.1.2.4, 6.1.3.2, 6.2.2.2, 6.2.2.4, 6.3.2.2 and 9.3.2.
The contents of the corrigendum of June 2024 have been included in this copy.
