For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. The IEEE StandardsDictionary: Glossary of Terms & Definitions should be referenced for terms not defined in this clause.
3.1 ambient temperature: The temperature of the medium, such as air, water, or carth, into which the healof the equipment is dissipated.
NOTE 1-For selfventilated equipment, the ambient temperature is the average temperature of the air in theimmediate vicinity of the equipment.NOTE 2-For air or gas-cooled equipment with forced ventilation or secondary water cooling, the ambienttemperature is taken as that of the ingoing air or cooling gas.NOTE 3–For selfventilated enclosed (including oil-immersed) equipment considered as a complete unit,the ambienttemperature is the average temperature of the air outside of the enclosure in the immediate vicinity of the equipmentSee 5.7 and Table 1 oflEEE Std 18-2002.
3.2 back-to-back capacitor bank switching (back-to-back switching, back-to-back capacitorswitching): Switching a capacitor bank in close enough electrical proximity to one or more other energizedcapacitor banks and/or cables to significantly influence the inrush current.
3.3 capacitor bank: An assembly at one location of capacitor(s) and all necessary accessories, such asswitching equipment, protective equipment, controls, et celera, required for a complete operatinginstallation. It may be a collection of components assembled at the operating site or may include one ormore pieces of factory-assembled equipment.
3.4 capacitor control: The device required to automatically operate the switching device(s) to energize andde-energize shunt power capacitor banks.
3.5 capacitor element: The basic component of a capacitor unit consisting of two electrodes separated by dielectric.
3.6 capacitor equipment: A complete assembly of capacitors, including accessories such as busesconnectors, dischargers, and fuses suitable for connection to a power system.
3.7 capacitor line fuse (capacitor group fuse): A fuse applied to disconnect a faulted phase of a capacitorbank from the power system.
3.8 externally fused capacitor bank: A capacitor equipment with fuses external to the (power) capacitorunits.
3.9 filter capacitor: Capacitor(S) utilized with inductors and/or resistors for controlling harmonic voltagesand currents in the power system.
3.10 fixed capacitor bank: A capacitor bank not designed for automatic operation or frequent switching.
3.11 fused capacitor: A capacitor having fuses mounted on its terminals, or inside a terminal enclosure, orinside the capacitor case, for the purpose of interrupting a failed capacitor element, unit or group.
3.12 fuseless capacitor bank: A capacitor bank without any fuses, internal or external, that is constructedof (parallel) strings of capacitor units. Each string consists of capacitor units connected in series.
