C37.59-1996
IEEE Standard Requirements for Conversion of Power Switchgear Equipment
Power switchgear equipment that is converted from the original manufacturer's designs, whether the conversion is performed in manufacturing plants or at installation sites, is covered.
C37.59-2002
IEEE Standard Requirements for Conversion of Power Switchgear Equipment
Directions and requirements are provided for the conversion of qualified power switchgear equipment. Examples such as low-voltage power circuit breakers; high-voltage outdoor and medium-voltage indoor drawout power circuit breakers; low- and medium-voltage fused contactors; low- and medium-voltage ground and test devices; medium-voltage fused load interrupter switches; and all metal-enclosed switchgear are covered. Existing design standards are referenced with appropriate guidance on design testing necessary to design-verify the conversions.
