Overview
EN 60034-16-1:2011 (identical to IEC 60034-16-1:2011) is a definitions standard for excitation systems for synchronous machines within the IEC 60034 series on rotating electrical machines. This part defines terminology used to describe excitation equipment, control functions and performance parameters. The 2011 edition updates and expands definitions from the previous edition (superseding EN 60034-16-1:1995), adding modern concepts such as digital excitation system and reversible excitation system, and clarifying terms like excitation control and excitation control system.
Key topics and requirements
The document focuses on standardized terminology and conceptual blocks that are essential when specifying, modelling or testing excitation systems. Key definitions and technical items include:
- Excitation system / exciter - scope of equipment providing field current and voltage, including regulating, protection and suppression elements.
- Excitation control / excitation control system - closed-loop control concepts and the block diagram of the control system (includes the synchronous machine, exciter and power system).
- Exciter categories - rotating and static exciters, AC/DC exciter types and auxiliary winding/source configurations.
- Digital excitation system - definition requiring at least digital implementation of voltage regulation.
- Reversible excitation system - systems able to reverse the sign of magnetic flux.
- Field and system electrical parameters: rated field current (IfN), rated field voltage (UfN), no-load and air-gap field current/voltage (If0, Ifg, Ufg).
- Excitation system capability metrics: rated current/voltage (IeN, UeN), ceiling current and voltages (Ip, Up, Un, on-load variants), voltage response time, and high initial response characteristics.
- Updated control-function definitions (clauses 4.1–4.7) used for specifying regulator behaviour.
Applications
EN 60034-16-1:2011 is a reference glossary used to ensure consistent language across:
- Technical specifications and procurement documents for synchronous machines and excitation systems.
- Design and development of excitation control systems, including digital regulators and protective logic.
- Engineering models and computer simulations (using air-gap base values and response definitions).
- Test procedures, factory acceptance tests and documentation where consistent definitions of rated/ceiling values and response times are required.
- Grid-code compliance work and interaction studies between generators and power systems.
Who should use this standard
- Generator OEMs and sub‑suppliers (exciter manufacturers)
- Power plant engineers and utilities specifying synchronous machine excitation
- Control systems and protection engineers implementing digital excitation regulators
- Test labs, certification bodies and consultants involved in performance verification or modelling
Related standards
- Other parts of the IEC/EN 60034 rotating electrical machines series (refer to IEC TC 2 publications).
- Applicable national/adopted standards under CENELEC.
Using EN 60034-16-1:2011 ensures consistent terminology for excitation systems, improving clarity in specifications, testing, modelling and regulatory compliance for synchronous rotating electrical machines.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60034-16-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 2:
