CAN/CSA C61400-3-2011 (R2016)

CAN/CSA-C61400-3-11 (R2016) - Wind turbines - Part 3: Design requirements for offshore wind turbines (Adopted IEC 61400-3:2009, first edition, 2009-02, with Canadian deviations) | ╔oliennes - Partie 3 : Exigences de conception des Θoliennes en pleine mer (norme IEC 61400-3:2009 adoptΘe, premiΦre Θdition, 2009-02, avec exigences propres au Canada)

CSA Preface

This is the first edition of CAN/CSA-C61400-3, Wind turbines - Part 3: Design requirements for offshore wind turbines, which is an adoption, with Canadian deviations, of the identically titled IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) Standard 61400-3 (first edition, 2009-02).

Scope

This part of IEC 61400 specifies additional requirements for assessment of the external conditions at an offshore wind turbine site and it specifies essential design requirements to ensure the engineering integrity of offshore wind turbines. Its purpose is to provide an appropriate level of protection against damage from all hazards during the planned lifetime. This standard focuses on the engineering integrity of the structural components of an offshore wind turbine but is also concerned with subsystems such as control and protection mechanisms, internal electrical systems and mechanical systems. A wind turbine shall be considered as an offshore wind turbine if the support structure is subject to hydrodynamic loading. The design requirements specified in this standard are not necessarily sufficient to ensure the engineering integrity of floating offshore wind turbines. This standard should be used together with the appropriate IEC and ISO standards mentioned in Clause 2. In particular, this standard is fully consistent with the requirements of IEC 61400- 1. The safety level of the offshore wind turbine designed according to this standard shall be at or exceed the level inherent in IEC 61400-1. In some clauses, where a comprehensive statement of requirements aids clarity, replication of text from IEC 61400-1 is included.

PrΘface

Ce document constitue la premiΦre Θdition de la CAN/CSA-C61400-3, ╔oliennes - Partie 3 : Exigences de conception des Θoliennes en pleine mer. Il s'agit de l'adoption, avec exigences propres au Canada, de la norme CEI (Commission ╔lectrotechnique Internationale) 61400-3 (premiΦre Θdition, 2009-02) qui porte.

Domaine d'application

La prΘsente partie de la CEI 61400 spΘcifie des exigences complΘmentaires d'Θvaluation des conditions externes sur un site d'Θoliennes en pleine mer ainsi que les exigences essentielles de conception, afin d'assurer l'intΘgritΘ technique de ces derniΦres. Elle a pour objet de fournir un niveau de protection appropriΘ contre les dommages causΘs par tous les risques pendant la durΘe de vie prΘvue.le mΩme titre. La prΘsente norme se focalise sur l'intΘgritΘ technique des composants structurels d'une Θolienne en pleine mer, mais concerne Θgalement les sous-systΦmes, tels que les mΘcanismes de commande et de protection, les systΦmes Θlectriques internes et les systΦmes mΘcaniques. Une Θolienne doit Ωtre considΘrΘe comme une Θolienne en pleine mer, si la structure de support est soumise α des charges hydrodynamiques. Les exigences de conception spΘcifiΘes dans la prΘsente norme ne sont pas nΘcessairement suffisantes pour assurer l'intΘgritΘ technique des Θoliennes en pleine mer flottantes. Il convient d'utiliser la prΘsente norme avec les normes CEI et ISO appropriΘes mentionnΘes α l'Article 2. En particulier, la prΘsente norme est totalement cohΘrente avec les exigences de la CEI 61400-1. Le niveau de sΘcuritΘ de l'Θolienne en pleine mer, conτue selon la prΘsente norme, doit Ωtre Θgal ou supΘrieur au niveau inhΘrent de la CEI 61400-1. Dans quelques articles, o∙ un ΘnoncΘ complet des exigences facilite la comprΘhension, la duplication du texte de la CEI 61400-1 est intΘgrΘe.
