About This Item
IEEE P1015/D5, Feb 2006 is an unapproved draft recommended practice focused on applying low voltage circuit breakers in industrial and commercial power systems. It is intended to guide engineering decisions around breaker selection, application, and coordination where reliable protection and system continuity matter. As an IEEE draft known as the Blue Book, IEEE P1015/D5, Feb 2006 is relevant to practitioners who need a technical reference for low voltage breaker use in power, energy, and industrial applications.
About IEEE P1015/D5, Feb 2006
This draft recommended practice addresses the practical application of low voltage circuit breakers in power distribution systems. It typically supports planning and specification work by clarifying how breakers may be applied in industrial and commercial environments, where protection, interruption duty, and system coordination are important. Because IEEE P1015/D5, Feb 2006 is an unapproved draft, it is best used as a technical reference for understanding intended application guidance rather than as a finalized requirement set.
Where is IEEE P1015/D5, Feb 2006 used?
IEEE P1015/D5, Feb 2006 is most relevant in facilities that use low voltage distribution equipment, such as switchboards, motor control centers, panelboards, and feeder circuits. It may be consulted during design, equipment selection, and maintenance planning for industrial plants, commercial buildings, and other power systems that rely on circuit breakers for protection and operational continuity. The document is especially useful where breaker application must align with load characteristics, fault protection needs, and coordinated system behavior.
Importance in practice
In practice, this draft matters because correct breaker application affects safety, selectivity, and the overall reliability of electrical systems. Engineers and specifiers may use IEEE P1015/D5, Feb 2006 to support consistent design decisions, reduce misapplication risk, and improve compatibility between protection devices and the connected system. It can also help procurement and review teams compare equipment on a more technical basis, especially when low voltage circuit breaker performance and coordination are central concerns.
