Iec - Tr 60890 Pdf

IEC TR 60890:2022 provides a standardized, non-physical method for calculating air temperature rise within low-voltage switchgear assemblies, aligning with IEC 61439-1:2020 standards. This technical report covers enclosures without forced ventilation, offering updated procedures to determine thermal performance based on power losses and physical parameters. The document can be purchased from the IEC Webstore.

The core of the IEC TR 60890 PDF is a series of tables. For a given power loss (P) and effective surface area (A_b), you read a base temperature rise value (ΔT). This value is then multiplied by correction factors for:

This paper examines IEC TR 60890, a method for calculating the temperature rise of enclosed switchgear and controlgear assemblies under normal service conditions without requiring full-scale type tests. The report provides simplified calculation formulas and correction factors for enclosures with natural ventilation. This paper outlines the scope, assumptions, calculation steps, limitations, and practical examples of IEC TR 60890, highlighting its role in low-voltage assembly design and compliance with IEC 61439 series.

Certification bodies (such as UL, CSA, VDE, or TÜV) accept the TR 60890 method as a valid verification route for assemblies built according to IEC 61439. Auditors will expect to see the calculation sheets.
