IEEE Guide for Test Procedures for Synchronous Machines Including Acceptance and Performance Testing and Parameter Determination for Dynamic Analysis
Also Known As: IEEE Std 115-2019
The IEEE 115-2019 standard provides instructions for conducting tests to determine the performance characteristics of synchronous machines. While the tests described are generally applicable to synchronous generators, synchronous motors (larger than fractional horsepower), synchronous condensers, and synchronous frequency changers, the emphasis is primarily on synchronous generators and motors.
The purpose of this guide is to outline accepted methods for obtaining performance data and does not cover all possible tests or research-oriented tests. The specific tests required for new equipment are typically specified by applicable standards or contract specifications. It is important to note that this guide does not require any specific test for a given transaction or guarantee specific performance indices or operating conditions.
The term "specified conditions for tests" is considered to be rated conditions unless otherwise agreed upon. Rated conditions generally refer to the quantities listed on the machine nameplate.
