Test field for the application of IEC 60364 in Korea

접지규정 IEC 60364의 국내 적용을 위한 실증시험장 구축

IEC 60364-4-44 provides rules for the protection against the effects of conducted and radiated disturbances on electrical installations. Especially this standards deals with the protection of low voltage facility against the ground fault in the high voltage side of power distribution system. Many countries defines the regulations on the use and production of electrical facilities based on their own power system and technical references which are considered to be suitable for themselves. The background of circuit of IEC 60364 is based on the ungrounded system as most of European countries adopt. However, since domestic ground system is multi-grounding system different from European system, it is necessary to evaluate or prove the effect of the IEC 60364 for introducing and applying it to the domestic grounding system as a Korean standard. This paper presents the establishment of test field to get background data to introduce the IEC 60364 and to evaluate the standard is applicable or not to domestic rule for the protection against ground fault through the related test.
