BS EN 60172:1996 is a British Standard that provides guidelines for the testing of electrical equipment and systems for the purpose of fault detection and location.
The standard covers the testing of AC and DC electrical equipment, including power transformers, instrument transformers, switchgear, and cables. It describes various test methods and techniques for detecting and locating faults, such as short-circuits, open-circuits, and insulation failures.
BS EN 60172:1996 also provides recommendations for the interpretation of test results and the determination of the location and nature of faults. It is intended for use by electrical engineers, technicians, and other professionals involved in the design, installation, and maintenance of electrical equipment and systems.
The standard aims to promote the safety and reliability of electrical systems by ensuring that faults are detected and located quickly and accurately, thereby minimizing downtime and reducing the risk of accidents or damage to equipment.
