neutral  Jennifer Levey: 'switching' = commutation, ce qui inclut tant l'activation comme la desactivation des circuits. // As explained already by Tony, 'on' goes with 'systems', not with 'switching'.
31 mins
  -> "Switching on" ici par contre
disagree  Tony M: Apparently misled by Asker's incorrect parsing — it is 'on ... systems', and it doesn't mean "switching on"

  -> Your comment is absurdly off-topic. If you take the 5 seconds it requires to read my answer, you'll discover that I have not suggested that Appareillage de commutation is the answer to the question.

commutation sur les systèmes électriques haute et basse tension (HT/BT)


Explanation:
Le terme demandé est très différent du contexte. Il devrait être correctement libellé comme suit : « switching on on high and low voltage power systems up to and including 15 kV »

Ces termes ne devraient être traduits que dans leur contexte. C'est pourquoi je commence par traduire le contexte :

Il décrit les principes de commutation sur les systèmes électriques haute et basse tension jusqu'à 15 kV inclus.

Passons maintenant aux termes :

Area Control technology / Functional units in switching systems
IEV ref 351-52-01
en switching system
system consisting of switching elements that interact through binary variables, and performing switching functions
Note 1 to entry: Sequential control and combinatorial control are implemented by switching systems.
Note 2 to entry: This entry was numbered 351-29-01 in IEC 60050-351:2006.

neutral  Jennifer Levey: Your translation is unnecessarily verbose. All your references are in English. You have not provided any worthwhile improvement over a previous answer.//Yes, the IEV is multilingual - so why don't you quote the fr translation to support your answer?

  -> Please read my references meticulously. Electropedia terms are internationally standardized by the International Electrotechnical Committee for all countries. All references contain the relevant translation in the last line!
