IEC 62896 ED1

Hybrid insulators for a.c. and d.c. for high-voltage applications greater than 1000V AC and 1500 V DC - Definitions, test methods and acceptance criteria IEC 62896 ED1

Scope

IEC 62896:2024 applies to hybrid insulators for AC and DC applications greater than 1 000 V AC and 1 500 V DC consisting of a load-bearing insulating solid or hollow core consisting of ceramic or glass, a housing (defined geometry, outside the insulating core) made of polymeric material and end fittings permanently attached to the insulating core.
This document does not include requirements dealing with the choice of insulators for specific operating conditions.
