DIN EN 62751-1 VDE 0553-751-1:2023-03

Power losses in voltage sourced converter (VSC) valves for high-voltage direct current (HVDC) systems

Part 1: General requirements

(IEC 62751-1:2014 + A1:2018 + A2:2022); German version EN 62751-1:2014 + A1:2018 + AMD2:2022
Class/Status: Standard, valid
Released: 2023-03
VDE Art. No.: 0500245

This part of IEC 62751 sets out the general principles for calculating the power losses in the converter valves of a voltage sourced converter (VSC) for high-voltage direct current (HVDC) applications, independent of the converter topology. Clauses 6 and 8 and subclauses 9.1, 9.2 and A.2.12 of the standard can also be used for calculating the power losses in the dynamic braking valves (where used) and as guidance for calculating the power losses of the valves for a STATCOM installation.
