About This Item
PC62.72/D5, Feb 2014 is a technical standard focused on protective devices used on the load side of service equipment in low voltage AC power circuits rated at 1000 V or less, 50 or 60 Hz. It addresses how these devices are applied in power, energy, and industrial systems where dependable protection and coordinated operation are important. For engineers, specifiers, and procurement teams, the document helps define a clearer basis for selection and compliance.
PC62.72/D5, Feb 2014 overview
This specification covers protective devices intended for installation downstream of the service equipment in low voltage alternating current circuits. In that setting, the standard is useful for describing the electrical environment, operating limits, and expected protective function of equipment used to manage faults and safeguard connected loads. PC62.72/D5, Feb 2014 is relevant where consistent design and evaluation practices are needed for components, circuits, and systems that rely on low voltage distribution.
Typical use cases
PC62.72/D5, Feb 2014 is typically consulted when selecting or evaluating protective devices for switchboards, panelboards, feeder circuits, and other load-side power distribution equipment. It may support projects in industrial facilities, commercial buildings, utilities, and energy installations that use 50 or 60 Hz AC systems. The standard is also useful during equipment specification, acceptance testing, and coordination review where the protective behavior of devices must align with the circuit design and service equipment arrangement.
Why this standard matters
For low voltage power systems, the right protective-device requirements can reduce risk, improve system coordination, and support safer operation under overload or fault conditions. PC62.72/D5, Feb 2014 helps provide a common technical reference for design decisions, product comparison, and compliance documentation. That consistency matters when purchasing equipment, reviewing protection schemes, or checking whether a device is suitable for use on the load side of service equipment in a defined AC application.
