GB/T 18504-2001 in English

《GB/T 18504-2001管形荧光灯和其他放电灯线路用电容器性能要求》由TC224（全国照明电器标准化技术委员会）归口，TC224SC1（全国照明电器标准化技术委员会电光源及其附件分会）执行，主管部门为中国轻工业联合会。
本标准规定了额定电压不超过1000V，电容量不低于0.1μF，无功功率不超过2.5lvar，能持续承受交流电压的自愈式和非自愈式电容器的要求，电容器用于工作频率为50Hz或60Hz，海拔不超过3000m的放电灯线路。本标准包括用于与灯线路并联、串联或串并联组合的电容器。本标准只包括用纸或塑料膜绝缘或用二者相组合绝缘的浸渍式或非浸渍式电容器，它们经金属化处理或带有金属箔电极。本标准不包括射频干扰抑制电容器，对于这类电容器的要求，见GB/T 14472。本标准中的试验属于型式试验，对产品一致性的导则见附录A。

Scope

This standard stipulates the requirements for self-healing and non-self-healing capacitors with a rated voltage not exceeding 1000V, a capacitance not less than 0.1μF, and a reactive power not exceeding 2.5kvar, which can continuously withstand AC voltage. Capacitors are used for operating frequencies of 50Hz or 60Hz, discharge lamp circuit with an altitude not exceeding 3000m. This standard covers capacitors for use in parallel, in series or in series-parallel combinations with lamp circuits. This standard covers only impregnated or non-impregnated capacitors insulated by paper or plastic film or a combination of both, which are metallized or have metal foil electrodes. This standard does not include radio frequency interference suppression capacitors. For the requirements of such capacitors, see GB/T 14472. The tests in this standard are type tests, and the guidelines for product consistency are given in Appendix A.
