reproducible basis for designing and evaluating communicationsIEDs
networking devices to be installed in those substations. It is a
freestanding document, with no normative references to other
standardslocations.
5.5 Need for the Project: This PAR is to broaden the Title and Scope to IEDs installed in transmission and distribution facilities and to add
five IEC EMC standards now in IEEE 1613.1 (which will be withdrawn) after publication of this revision to IEEE 1613-2009.
5.6 Stakeholders for the Standard: Manufacturers, users and specifiers of electric utility transmission and distribution facilities and the
consultants to those industries.
Intellectual Property
6.1.a. Is the Sponsor aware of any copyright permissions needed for this project?: No
6.1.b. Is the Sponsor aware of possible registration activity related to this project?: No
7.1 Are there other standards or projects with a similar scope?: No
7.2 Joint Development
Is it the intent to develop this document jointly with another organization?: No
8.1 Additional Explanatory Notes (Item Number and Explanation): 5.2 and 5.5: What the working group discovered is that the vendors
represented in the working group were confused on how to apply 1613.1 to their products and therefore were not doing anything with it. This
was also generally observable from Internet searches that showed no vendors claiming conformance to 1613.1. In working with the vendors to
try and resolve this confusion, the WG decided the best approach would be to move the requirements from 1613.1 into 1613 while also
addressing the copyright issues with the published 1613 that ultimately led to the creation of 1613.1 in the first place.
The 1613.1 working group proposed resolving the copyright issues of the previous version of 1613 as follows: the new working group will
relocate the bibliographic entries for the C37.90 series to the normative references and also figure out how to most effectively replace the
copied material from those previously bibliographic references to specific normative references. This will ultimately reduce the length of 1613.
The hard work is figuring out the best way to follow the IEEE SA style manual on normative references.
This ultimately strengthens 1613, which is widely accepted in industry and is a very successful standard. And ultimately 1613.1 would be
eventually withdrawn.
