26、erred Values for Self-Restoring Current-Limiter Components Used in Telecommunication Surge Protection. Unlike fuses and heat coils, self-restoring overcurrent protectors (OCPs) automatically reset after the end of the overcurrent condition without the need for manual intervention. All the OCPs cover
27、ed in this standard are solid-state. Having no moving parts these OCPs are more reliable than thermal circuit breakers and mechanical disk switches. The current reducing action is for the normally low (untripped) OCP resistance to transition to a very high tripped resistance value, which greatly red
28、uces the circuit current flow. The positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistor OCPs transition is caused by the component body reaching a critical temperature. The body temperature rise is caused by the i2R heating of the overcurrent flowing through the component. Being thermally operated PTC
29、thermistor OCPs do not operate for short duration lightning currents, but for ac overcurrents caused by power faults. Electronic current limiter (ECL) OCPs operate on a preset current threshold level and will reduce both ac and lightning overcurrents to that threshold current level. Under lightning
30、surge conditions both OCP types assist in the protection coordination function. These OCPs will have untripped resistance values ranging from a few ohms to some 50 . This series resistance provides a coordination element between cascaded overvoltage protectors. In the tripped state (operated) the OC
31、P resistance increases to hundreds of kilohms (k), greatly reducing the prospective overcurrent to the equipment and the i2t developed in the feed wiring. OCP tripping forces a coordination condition; the ECL does so for both lightning and ac overcurrents and the PTC thermistor for ac overcurrent co
32、nditions. Many of the tests and test values can be applied to the three types self-restoring OCP technology: ceramic PTC (CPTC) thermistors, polymer PTC (PPTC) thermistors, and ECL components. Some tests are specific to OCPs used in a surge protective device (SPD) or to OCPs used in equipment. Diffe
33、rences between the OCP technologies mean that some tests will be specific to a given technology. Copyright 2013 IEEE. All rights reserved. viiiContents 1. Overview 1 1.1 Scope . 1 1.2 Purpose 2 2.

Overview 1.1 Scope This standard sets terms, test methods, test circuits,
41、measurement procedures and preferred result values for series connected, self-restoring current-limiter components used in low-voltage telecommunication circuit surge protection. It is only applicable for components in telecommunications circuits with sinusoidal ringing voltages up to 150 V rms at 1
42、5 Hz to 70 Hz and dc powering voltages up to 400 V. The self-restoring current limiters covered by this standard have the following properties: Excessive current causes a transition from a low-resistance state to a high-resistance state Reverts to a low-resistance state when the excessive current en

44、and Preferred Values for Self-Restoring Current-Limiter Components Used in Telecommunication Surge Protection Examples of this type of current-limiter technology are positive temperature coefficient (PTC) step-function thermistors of ceramic or polymeric material and silicon semiconductor based elec
45、tronic circuits. This standard does not cover self-restoring current-limiter components used in other applications, such as heaters, inrush-current limiters, or sensing devices. Current interrupting type components, which reduce the current to zero by a mechanical circuit break, are not covered by t
46、his standard. In this standard, a telecommunications circuit is a circuit that uses metallic conductors to handle the remote transmission of information, such as data, communications, and signalling. 1.2 Purpose The test criteria and terms of this standard provide a means of component comparison and
47、 a common engineering language for users and manufacturers of self-restoring current-limiter components intended for use in low-voltage telecommunication circuit surge protection.
