Abstract

As in any rapidly advancing technology, power electronics standards are the risk mitigation tool, which allow using collective practical experience of many generations of engineers. Knowledge of the standards accelerates acceptance of power electronics and allows doing things right from the first time. Typically, standards formulate what is required and should be considered leaving to user decisions how requirements of the standards are implemented.
