BS EN 61230:2008 8 61230 IEC:2008 LIVE WORKING PORTABLE EQUIPMENT FOR EARTHING OR EARTHING AND SHORT-CIRCUITING 1 Scope This International Standard is applicable to portable equipment, with or without matching connection points, for temporary eart
46、hing or earthing and short-circuiting of electrically isolated or de-energized a.c. and d.c. installations, distribution and transmission networks, whether they are overhead or underground or of low or high voltage. NOTE Annex A provides guidance for application to railway systems. This standard cov
47、ers equipment comprising an earthing or a short-circuiting or an earthing and short-circuiting device and insulating component. An example is given in Figure 1a and Figure 1b. It also covers: earthing or short-circuiting or earthing and short-circuiting devices intended to be installed with insulati
48、ng means. An example of an earthing device is given in Figure 1c; separate components, such as conductive extension (see Figure 1b) or clamp or cable with end fittings. The performance of equipment, devices and components covered by this standard is based on electro-dynamic and electro-thermal effec
49、ts acting during short-circuit. The withstand capability of the devices and equipment is expressed by their rated values of current, time and peak factor. No rated voltage is given, but the geometrical dimensions of the equipment are also linked to the voltage of the installation. Examples of connection diagrams of earthing and short-circuiting devices are given in Figures 2 and 3. Associated usual
