Publication CODE Title
NBN EN 61643-312:2013 (2013-08) COMPONENTS FOR LOW-VOLTAGE SURGE PROTECTIVE DEVICES PART 312: SELECTION AND APPLICATION PRINCIPLES FOR GAS DISCHARGE TUBES
 
Price Excl. VAT Total number of pages, tables and drawings
25.00 € 3 P..
Description
Is applicable to gas discharge tubes (GDT) used for overvoltage protection in telecommunications, signalling and low-voltage power distribution networks with nominal system voltages up to 1 000 V (r.m.s.) a.c. and 1 500 V d.c. They are defined as a gap, or several gaps with two or three metal electrodes hermetically sealed so that gas mixture and pressure are under control. They are designed to protect apparatus or personnel, or both, from high transient voltages. This standard provides information about the characteristics and circuit applications of GDTs having two or three electrodes. This standard does not specify requirements applicable to complete surge protective devices, nor does it specify total requirements for GDTs employed within electronic devices, where precise coordination between GDT performance and surge protective device withstand capability is highly critical.

ATTENTION: Belgian registered standards (NBN EN or NBN HD) are generally only available in English or French. Only the cover page is translated and the document itself is in English or in French.

Very important notice: 98% of the text of the NBN EN 55XXX, NBN EN 6XXXX comes from the IEC text which is NOT included. This text can be ordered here: IEC 61643-312:2013. For the series NBN EN 50XXX, the standards are however complete.
