ETD 19

NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Standard which is identical to IEC 61083-1 : 2021 ‘Instruments and software used for measurements In high-voltage and high-current tests - Part 1: Requirements for instruments for impulse tests’ issued by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the High Voltage Engineering Sectional Committee and approval of the Electrotechnical Division Council.

This Standard was first published in 2001. This revision has been undertaken to align it with corresponding latest IEC standard.

The text of the IEC standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:

a) Wherever the words ‘International Standard’ appears referring to this standard, they should be read as ‘Indian Standard’; and

b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker, while in Indian Standards the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
