What is BS EN IEC 60076‑22‑8 about?
BS EN IEC 60076‑22‑8 applies to a selection of accessories and fittings mounted on liquid immersed power transformers and reactors with or without conservator for indoor or outdoor installation.
BS EN IEC 60076‑22‑8 outlines the operation requirements specific to each device as well as the data made available to the communication network and the type and routine test to be performed.
NOTE 1: The communication network is not part of the scope of BS EN IEC 60076‑22‑8.
Who is BS EN IEC 60076‑22‑8 for?
BS EN IEC 60076‑22‑8 on suitable devices for communication network is for:
- Manufacturers of transformer cooling fans
- Suppliers and dealers of electric fans for transformer
- Importers of electric fans for transformer
- Service providers for transformers and electric fans
Why should you use BS EN IEC 60076‑22‑8?
A communication network is a set of devices connected to share data. Devices in this network are helpful for transferring the data from a certain site to the control rooms. These devices in an electrical network such as transformers, relays, circuit breakers, sensors etc. are connected to communication network infrastructures such as Ethernet switches or controllers.
BS EN IEC 60076‑22‑8 gives you an exhaustive selection of devices that are currently used in the communication networks, particularly for power transformers, for communication between intelligent devices and sensors, and to monitor field devices using PCs and HMIs.
BS EN IEC 60076‑22‑8 also helps you in acknowledging different test methods such as accuracy tests, type tests, modbus requirements, electronic board tests, etc. for enlisted transformers communication devices, to give you more clarity about the ideal working condition for a device
