2009 Substations Committee Status Report 2
Status
• Border lines of technical work in the Substations and SwitchgearCommittee are sometimes under question.
• Standardization itself needs clear defined borders of responsibility toavoid conflicts and confusion.
• The border line between Substations and Switchgear committee
responsibilities need clear definition.
• IEC has defined limits of responsibilities in
SC 17A and SC 17C.

IEC
The title and scope of IEC SC 17 A says:
High-voltage switchgear and controlgear To prepare international standards regarding specifications for high- voltage switchgear and controlgear rated above 1 kV a.c. or above 1,5 kV d.c.
while the title and scope of SC 17 C says:
High-voltage switchgear and controlgear assemblies To prepare international standards covering prefabricated assemblies which are combination of one or more parts of switchgear and
controlgear exceeding 1 kV a.c., together with associated control and power equipment, measuring, signalling, protective, regulating equipment etc.Gas-insulated transmission lines are in the scope of SC 17C.

• The main difference is on the little word "assemblies".
• To explain “assemblies” it is good to ask:What are not assemblies?
• Not assemblies are devices which follow one function or a
combination of functions in one device.
For example: A circuit breaker is one function using one interruptionchamber, one driving mechanism and has two terminal A and B.

Assemblies
IEC defines assemblies in:
‘IEC 62271-205 Ed.1: High-voltage switchgear and controlgear –
Part 205: Compact switchgear assemblies for rated voltages above52 kV’.
Based on results of CIGRE Substations WG B3-20 published in
November 2008 as: ‘Evaluation of Different SwitchgearTechnologies (AIS, MTS, GIS) for Rated Voltages of 52 kV
and above’

Assemblies
• Three types of assemblies:
• Type 1: Assembly of independently operated switching devicesand/or devices which are connected by short connecting parts on acommon base frame (similar to a conventional substation design).
• Type 2: Assembly of independently operated switching devicesand/or devices sharing parts of the neighbouring switching device ordevice.
• Type 3: Assembly of independently operated switching devicesand/or devices being integrated in another switching device.

The Principle
• Principle behind the logic:
• Device experts (e. g. CB, DC, ES) make the details.
• Assembly experts of substation make the interaction of devices.

The Principle
Possible border lines of responsibilities:
• Substations CommitteeTo be responsible for functions assembled from single devices insubstations and their interactions.
• Switchgear CommitteeTo be responsible for devices with single or combined functions inone device.
• Wider View
In a wider view it the Substations Committee has the overlookingfunction of all devices used in substations and their interactions.This includes devices (e.g. CB, transformers, cables) andcommunication technology (SCADA).

Conclusion
• Standards are getting more complex with system orientation.
• Standards of single devices and interaction of devices need differentexperts.
• Clear border lines of responsibility is important for standards toavoid confusion.
• IEC concept has proven well over the last years. Could be a basisfor Substations-Switchgear discussions.
• We shall take the opportunity to improve!
• In a first step officers of the related committees shall get togetherand try to simplify the standards organisation. In IEC we neededseveral years to get this solution between two committees. It’s notan easy task, but it is valuable to think about it.
