Standard Coordinators Report

September 18, 2007

 

 

The Standards Coordinator, Jeffrey Gilbert, met with the Chairs of the Working Groups writing and revising standards documents at a session beginning at 8:00 AM on September 18, 2007, in the Lake 2 room of the Charlotte University Hilton

 

Matthew Ceglia, the Standards Association liaison to PSRC, reviewed requirements for showing SA Patent Policy slides and the need to record that the slides were shown in meeting minutes of any group that is working on a standard. He also explained the importance of confirming that a sufficient number of voting members are present to meet the requirement that a quorum be present for any vote to be valid. He suggested that the PSRC P&P document be reviewed to confirm that it voting members are clearly defined.  Mr. Ceglia answered many questions from working group and subcommittee chairs.

 

The status of the PARs is summarized below. The actions to be taken for keeping up-to-date the approval of the PARs and for keeping live the Standards and Guides are identified. A summary of the specific approvals received, since the May 2007 meeting of the PSRC, are identified as well.

Information concerning the Standards Association (SA), Board of Governors, Committees of SA, and development of standards, recommended practices and guides and related issues is available on the following web site.

Standards Coordination Effort

PARs applied for by all Committees of the Power Engineering Society (PES) are circulated among the Standards Coordinators of the PES Committees. Every PAR approved by the Standards Board is posted on the SA Web site at the following address.

The following PARs have been approved by the IEEE-SA Standards Board may be of interest to PSRC attendees.

PC37.68 - Guide for the Requirements for Microprocessor-Based Controls for Distribution Pole-Mount and Padmount Switchgear Rated above 1kV up to 38kV

PC57.13 - Standard Requirements for Instrument Transformers

 

If you are interested in the development work planned in a PAR, contact the Chair of the Working Group that is developing the document and sign up for participating in the activity of that Working Group.
