1 Scope
This document applies to pressurized gas-filled compartments of AC switchgear and
controlgear with rated voltages above 1 kV and up to and including 52 kV for indoor
or outdoor installations, where the gas or gas mixture is being used principally for
its dielectric and/or arc-quenching properties and where the gases or gas mixtures
in the compartment can be considered in conditions being chemically stable over its
lifetime and non-corrosive to the material of the pressurized compartment in the conditions
that prevail inside.
