Establishes uniform guidelines for measurement and reporting of sound produced by ac power circuit breakers. Intended for use in measurement of the sound produced by outdoor circuit breakers in a free-field environment. Methods may be used indoors or in restricted field, provided that precautions are observed in measurement and interpretation of results. Three types of tests are decribed: design tests, conformance tests, and field tests.
