GB/T 11024.1-2010 Shunt capacitors for a.c. power systems having a rated voltage above 1 000 V—Part 1:General
Basic Information
Scope
This part specifies the performance, testing, rating, safety requirements, and installation and operation guidelines for parallel capacitors used in AC power systems with a nominal voltage of more than 1,000 V.
This part applies to capacitor units and capacitor banks specifically designed to improve the power factor of AC power systems with a nominal voltage of more than 1,000 V and a frequency of 15 Hz to 60 Hz.
This part also applies to capacitors used in power filtering circuits. Additional definitions, requirements, and testing for filtering capacitors are provided in Appendix B.
Additional requirements for capacitors with internal fuse protection and requirements for internal fuses are specified in GB/T 11024.4.
Requirements for capacitors with external fuse protection and requirements for external fuses are provided in Appendix C.
This part does not apply to self-healing metallized dielectric capacitors.
This part also does not apply to the following capacitors:
—— Capacitors for induction heating devices operating at a frequency of 40 Hz to 24,000 Hz (see GB/T 3984.1);
—— Series capacitors for power systems (see GB/T 6115 series);
—— Capacitors for motors and similar devices (see GB/T 3667 series);
—— Coupling capacitors and capacitive voltage dividers (see GB/T 19749);
—— Parallel capacitors for AC power systems with a nominal voltage of 1 kV or less (see GB/T 12747 series and GB/T 17886 series);
—— Small AC capacitors for fluorescent lamps and discharge lamps (see GB 18489 and GB/T 18504);
—— Power electronic capacitors (see GB/T 17702 series);
—— Capacitors for microwave ovens (see GB/T 18939.1);
—— Capacitors for suppressing radio interference;
—— Capacitors used under AC voltage superimposed with DC voltage.
Accessories such as insulators, switches, transformers, and external fuses should comply with corresponding standards.
