GB/T 14048.2-2020 Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear—Part 2:Circuit-breakers
Basic Information
Scope
This part of GB/T 14048 specifies the terms and definitions, classification, characteristics, product data and information, normal operation, installation and transportation conditions, structural and performance requirements, and tests for circuit breakers.
This part applies to circuit breakers used to connect to circuits with a rated voltage not exceeding 1,000 V AC or 1,500 V DC, and installed and operated by professionally trained and skilled personnel. This part also specifies additional requirements for circuit breakers with fuses.
Circuit breakers with a rated voltage higher than 1,000 V AC but not exceeding 1,500 V AC can be tested according to this part.
This part applies to any circuit breakers with any rated current, any structural type, or any intended use.
The requirements for circuit breakers used for grounding protection are included in Appendix B.
The additional requirements for electronic overcurrent protection circuit breakers are included in Appendix F.
The additional requirements for circuit breakers used in IT systems are included in Appendix H.
The requirements and test methods for electromagnetic compatibility of circuit breakers are included in Appendix J.
The requirements for circuit breakers without overcurrent protection are included in Appendix L.
The requirements for residual current device modules (without internal current breaking devices) are included in Appendix M.
The requirements and test methods for electromagnetic compatibility of circuit breaker accessories are included in Appendix N.
The requirements for instantaneous trip circuit breakers (ICBs) are included in Appendix O.
The requirements and test methods for DC circuit breakers used in photovoltaic (PV) systems are included in Appendix P.
The requirements and test methods for residual current protection circuit breakers with automatic reclosing function are included in Appendix R.
