IEEE Recommended Practice for the Design of Buswork Located in Seismically Active Areas
Also Known As: IEEE Std 1527-2018
The IEEE 1527-2018 standard provides guidelines for the engineering and design of flexible and rigid bus connections in electric power substations situated in seismically active regions. The standard aims to ensure the safe and effective functioning of buswork connections, taking into account seismic considerations and the dynamic effects of connections during seismic events.
The scope of this document covers the engineering and design of bus connections for bus and equipment in electric power substations located in seismically active areas. It specifically addresses the design of buswork connections in the context of seismic qualification of equipment, which is covered by IEEE Std 693™. The purpose of the standard is to offer recommendations and guidance to the substation engineer regarding seismic considerations in the design of buswork. It also aims to provide engineers and equipment manufacturers with knowledge of the dynamic effects of connections during seismic events.
