J. Notes
Please present here any additional information about the standard that might be useful: 1. The purpose of this standard is to establish a common and reproducible basis for evaluating the performance of relays and relay systems when subjected to repetitive transients on supply, signal, control, and communication lines or connections. This standard is to establish that an evaluation is performed during both normal (non-tripped) and abnormal (tripped) relay operating conditions.

Architectural Principles
Please describe how this standard may apply any of these principles: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Symmetry facilitates bi-directional flow of energy and information Transparency supports a transparent and auditable chain of transactions Composition facilitates the building of complex interfaces from simpler ones Loose coupling can support bilateral and multilateral transactions without elaborate pre-arrangement Shallow integration does not require detailed mutual information to interact with other components
