International Standard IEC 60243-3 has been prepared by technical committee 112: Evaluation and qualification of electrical insulation materials and systems. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition, published in 2001, and constitutes an editorial revision. This part of IEC 60243 shall be read in conjunction with IEC 60243-1. The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
1 Scope This part of IEC 60243 gives requirements additional to those in IEC 60243-1 for the determination of the electric strength of solid insulating materials under 1,2/50 µs impulse voltage stress. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. IEC 60243-1:2013, Electric strength of insulating materials – Test methods – Part 1: Tests at power frequencies 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in IEC 60243-1, together with the following, apply. 3.1 full impulse-voltage wave aperiodic transient voltage that rises rapidly to a maximum value, then falls less rapidly to zero (see Figure 1)
