IEEE Application Guide for Transient Recovery Voltage for AC High-Voltage Circuit Breakers Rated on a Symmetrical Current Basis

Superseded by IEEE Std C37.011-2005 Abstract: Procedures and calculations necessary to apply the standard transient recovery voltage (TRV) ratings for ac high-voltage circuit breakers rated above 1000 V and on a symmetrical current basis are covered. The capability limits of these circuit interrupting devices are determined largely by the TRV. TRV ratings are compared with typical system TRV duties.
