AS/NZS 60898.2 – Circuit-breakers for overcurrent protection for household and similar installations, Part 2: Circuit-breakers for a.c. and d.c. operation (IEC 60898-2, Ed. 1.1 (2003) MOD)

Proposes the adoption of IEC 60898-2:2003 as a joint Australian/New Zealand Standard. Contains essential safety and associated requirements for single-pole and two-pole circuit-breakers which are suitable for operation with divert current and have a rated d.c. voltage not exceeding 220 V for single-pole and 440 V for two-pole circuit-breakers, a rated current not exceeding 125 A and a rated d.c. short-circuit capacity not exceeding 10 000 A. This draft Standard is intended for use in conjunction with IEC 60898-1 (which has been prepared as a revision of AS/NZS 4989:1997). Annex ZZ lists variations for Australian and New Zealand conditions.
