About This Item
PC37.16/D13, Apr 08 is a technical standard for voltage AC power circuit breakers rated 635V and below, and DC power circuit breakers rated 3200V and below. It is relevant to power, energy, and industrial applications where breaker performance, ratings, and application limits must be clearly defined. This specification helps support consistent selection, design, and compliance decisions for equipment used in low-voltage AC and medium-voltage DC power systems.
About PC37.16/D13, Apr 08
PC37.16/D13, Apr 08 addresses the requirements and technical context for power circuit breakers within its stated voltage ranges. The document is useful when evaluating how breakers should be applied, rated, and coordinated in electrical installations. It typically serves engineers, specifiers, and procurement teams that need a clear reference for breaker capabilities and limitations. As an inactive standard, it remains a reference point for understanding earlier requirements and technical practice in breaker application.
Where is PC37.16/D13, Apr 08 used?
This standard is commonly associated with power distribution equipment in industrial plants, utility-related installations, and other energy systems that use AC or DC power circuit breakers. It may be used when specifying breakers for switchgear, control rooms, substations, or large equipment assemblies where reliable interruption and protection are important. PC37.16/D13, Apr 08 is especially relevant when comparing breaker ratings against system voltage, operating conditions, and application requirements.
Importance in practice
In practice, the value of PC37.16/D13, Apr 08 lies in helping teams align breaker selection with system needs and technical expectations. It supports safer design decisions, more consistent procurement, and clearer compliance checks for breaker applications. Using a defined standard can reduce ambiguity around ratings, duty, and acceptable use in power circuits. For projects involving electrical protection, this kind of reference helps limit risk and improve consistency across specifications, testing, and equipment review.
