About This Item
IEEE PC62.23/D5, May 2017 is a draft application guide for surge protection of electric generating plants, written for power engineering environments where transient overvoltage control is important. It helps frame practical approaches to protecting generators, auxiliary systems, and associated electrical equipment from surge-related stress. For engineers working across Power, Energy and Industry Applications, Fields, Waves and Electromagnetics, and related systems, this technical document can support more consistent design and evaluation decisions.
Overview of IEEE PC62.23/D5, May 2017
This draft standard focuses on application guidance rather than a narrow component specification, making IEEE PC62.23/D5, May 2017 relevant to plant-level surge protection planning. Its context is electric generating plants, where electrical transients can affect insulation coordination, equipment reliability, and operational continuity. The document is useful for understanding how surge protection concepts may be applied within generation facilities and connected systems, especially where engineering practice must account for high-energy electrical environments and coordinated protection methods.
Typical use cases
IEEE PC62.23/D5, May 2017 is typically referenced when planning surge protection for generating stations, including generator terminals, control circuits, auxiliary power systems, and associated monitoring equipment. It may also support engineering reviews for plant upgrades, retrofit studies, and protection coordination work in facilities where electromagnetic transients can influence performance. The guide is relevant to teams evaluating how to reduce surge exposure in electrical systems that support generation, control, and distribution functions within the plant.
Why it matters
For electric generating plants, surge protection is closely tied to equipment life, operational reliability, and safety margin. IEEE PC62.23/D5, May 2017 provides a structured reference for application decisions, helping designers and operators align protection choices with the expected electrical environment. Using a common technical guide can improve consistency during procurement, design review, and testing, while also reducing uncertainty when coordinating protection across interconnected systems and sensitive components.
