5. 27 Active Standards Listed on IEEE SA website relating to “Power Electronics” –10 are currently being led by PELS –The remainder are mainly IAS/PES  Some of those are co-sponsored with PELS Coordinating through SCC-22 on a number of standards IEEE PELS Standards 2012.06.20db-4

6. –111-2000 - IEEE Standard for Wide-Band (Greater Than 1 Decade) Transformers –295-1969 - IEEE Standard for Electronics Power Transformers –388-1992 - IEEE Standard for Transformers and Inductors in Electronic Power Conversion Equipment –389-1996 - IEEE Recommended Practice for Testing Electronics Transformers and Inductors Active IEEE Power Electronics Standards 2012.06.20db-5

7. –390-1987 - IEEE Standard for Pulse Transformers –393-1991 - IEEE Standard for Test Procedures for Magnetic Cores –436-1991 - IEEE Guide for Making Corona (Partial Discharge) Measurements on Electronics Transformers –449-1998 - IEEE Standard for Ferroresonant Voltage Regulators Active IEEE Power Electronics Standards 2012.06.20db-6

8. –1515-2000 - IEEE Recommended Practice for Electronic Power Subsystems: Parameter Definitions, Test Conditions, and Test Methods –1573-2003 - IEEE Recommended Practice for Electronic Power Subsystems: Parameters, Interfaces, Elements, and Performance Active IEEE Power Electronics Standards 2012.06.20db-7

9. Status Updates : P&P PEL/SC have had new Policies and Procedures and also working group (WG) policies and procedures approved by the IEEE –December 2012 WG P&P being propagated to all PEL/SC working groups active with current activities –March 2013

10. Status Updates : Live Activities –1789 – LED dimming standard (Brad Lehman)  Looking to ballot in June 2013 –1573 - IEEE Recommended Practice for Electronic Power Subsystems: Parameters, Interfaces, Elements, and Performance (Revision: Peter Wilson)  Review period completed  Starting process of final revision and preparation for ballot – summer/fall 2013

11. Status Updates: Live Activities ETTC Standards (Matt Wilkowski) –388-1992 (R2007) IEEE Standard for Transformers and Inductors in Electronic Power Conversion Equipment  Target draft to ballot March 2015 –389-1996 (R2007) IEEE Recommended Practice for Testing Electronics Transformers and Inductors  Target draft to ballot March 2015 –393-1991 (R2007) IEEE Standard for Test Procedures for Magnetic Core  Needs a champion – recruiting underway!

12. Future Work – Priority Areas Review PELS standards Identify target areas for new standards Introduce TCs into process to ensure each TC has correct standards coverage Standards Award Improve Visibility of Standards Work in PELS

13. 1. Review Current Standards Review Process underway –To Be Completed by Summer 2013 Ensure new P&P are being followed by working groups Liaise with IEEE to make sure we have all the support we need for our working groups –Joan Woolery gave the new PEL/SC team a tutorial at our meeting this week Ensure relevant data is available on SA and PELS websites

14. 2. Identify standard targets Work with TCs via TC representatives on PEL/SC Align efforts with strategy defined by PELS –Link with related strategic activities Engage with industry to ensure standards coverage is right Wide bandgap already identified as a “hot” area worthy of investigation –devices, modules, systems and applications

15. Recap: 2012 Survey Results 2012.06.20db-14

16. What if you search for “Smart Grid” on IEEE SA? How many active standards? 2012.06.20db-15 76 Need Guidance and to focus our efforts: TCs have a vital role to play in that…

17. 3. TC reps on PEL/SC Looking forward to receiving nominations from TCs for members to serve on PEL/SC Light load on time: –2 physical meetings per year  APEC: Spring  ECCE: Fall –2 more PEL/SC telecons per year  Summer  Winter

18. 4. PEL/SC “Standards Award” A new PELS-based standards award Based on leadership in standards Need to formulate the criteria and nomination/selection process Liuchen Chang has volunteered to move this process forward Need to formulate the selection committee Hope to make the inaugural award in 2013

19. 5. Increase Standards Visibility Why? –Standards are a great way for industry to engage with the society and see its direct relevance to them and their companies How? –PEL/SC would like to suggest that we investigate holding special sessions at APEC & ECCE in PELS Standards Activities –Also, ensure PEL/SC meeting does not clash with TC meetings at APEC/ECCE

20. Will have at least one PEL/SC telecon in the summer Will also have a PEL/SC Officers telecon between now and ECCE As PEDG is in the USA in July, may arrange a physical meeting around that week (July8-11, 2013) Will have a physical meeting at ECCE 2013 in Denver, Date TBD Next PEL/SC Meetings 2012.06.20db-19

21. New PEL/SC Officers in place Looking forward to welcoming new TC Standards reps onto the team Working with IEEE to set up new PELS Standards desktop to manage data centrally Updated P&Ps in place Looking forward to new and exciting standards developments driven by PELS!
