To prepare international standards for systems of photovoltaic conversion of solar energy into electrical energy and for all the elements in the entire photovoltaic energy system. In this context, the concept "photovoltaic energy system" includes the entire field from light input to a photovoltaic cell to and including the interface with the electrical system(s) to which energy is supplied.<br /> <br /> NOTE: It is recognized that there is some common interest between TC 47 and TC 82, therefore these two Committees shall maintain liaison.

TC 88

Wind energy generation systems

Standardization in the field of wind energy generation systems including wind turbines, wind power plants onshore and offshore and interaction with the electrical system(s) to which energy is supplied.<br /> <br /> These standards address site suitability and resource assessment, design requirements, engineering integrity, modeling requirements, measurement techniques, test procedures, operation and maintenance.<br /> <br /> Their purpose is to provide a basis for design, quality assurance and technical aspects for certification. The standards address site-specific conditions, all systems and subsystems of wind turbines and wind power plants, such as mechanical, and electrical systems, support structures, control and protection as well as communication systems for monitoring, centralized and distributed control and evaluation, implementation of grid connection requirements for wind power plants, and environmental aspects of wind power development.<br /> <br /> The TC 88 standards will be developed based on and in agreement with appropriate IEC/ISO standards.

Transformers, reactors, power supply units, and combinations thereof

Standardization in the field of safety, EMC, EMF, energy efficiency and environmental aspects of transformers, reactors, power supply units, and combinations thereof. The standardization does not cover transformers, reactors and power supply units intended to be a part of distribution networks (covered by TC 14).<br /> TC 96 has group safety function in accordance with IEC Guide 104 for transformers other than those intended to supply distribution networks, in particular transformers and power supply units intended to allow the application of protective measures against electric shock as defined by TC 64, with no limitation of rated output power, but in certain cases including limitation of voltage.<br /> The general limitations for voltages are:<br /> - rated supply voltage not exceeding 1 000 V a.c.;<br /> - rated output voltage not exceeding 1 000 V a.c. or 1 500 V ripple free d.c.; however, internal voltages may exceed 1 000 V a.c. or 1 500 V ripple free d.c. For high-voltage applications, other than distribution networks (covered by TC 14), the rated output voltage can exceed 1 000 V a.c. or 1 500 V ripple free d.c. but the no load output voltage shall not exceed 15 000 V a.c. or 15 000 V d.c.<br /> The general limitations for the rated output are:<br /> - The maximum rated output depends on the type of transformer or linear power supply unit does in most cases not exceed 25 kVA for single-phase products and 40 kVA for three phase products;<br /> - the maximum rated output does not exceed 1 kVA for both single-phase and three phase Switch Mode Power Supplies;<br /> - the general limitations for the rated core power are 25 kVA for single-phase auto transformers and 40 kVA for three phase auto transformers;<br /> - the general limitations for the rated power are 50 kvar for single-phase reactors and 80 kvar for three phase reactors. For special transformers, reactors and power supply units and combinations thereof there are no limitation of rated output, rated core power and rated power.
