IEC 62590-3-1:2022
IEC 62590-3-1:2022 specifies the requirements and test methods for electronic power compensators for 1AC traction systems. This equipment is used to improve electric power quality inside the electric traction system and/or at the interface to the 3AC power network, applying power electronics technology. This document applies to equipment which is installed to achieve one or more of the following objectives as its function(s): - to mitigate voltage fluctuation; - to improve power factor; - to reduce imbalance at the interface to the 3AC power network. This document applies to equipment with all possible configurations to implement different technical solutions for compensation, but equipment consisting of only passive components is excluded.
