1This standard is replaced by IEC 62271-1, 2007-10.

2All IEEE-standards is based on IEEE std. 4, 1995 and Amd. 4a, 2001. This standard can be equally compared with the versions of IEC 60060 earlier than 2010. This means that impulse voltage tests cannot be performed according to any IEEE-standard.
