19、to present the dimensional requirements of wiring devices in order to assist the user in selecting and obtaining the proper product for a particular need and to minimize the possibility of unsafe interchangeability between configurations. In the preparation of this Standard Publication, input of use
20、rs and other interested parties has been sought and evaluated. User input will be formally sought by the canvas procedures of the American National Standards Institute. Proposed or recommended revision should be submitted to: Senior Technical Director, Operations National Electrical Manufacturers As
21、sociation 1300 North 17th Street Rosslyn, Virginia 22209 Publication ANSI/NEMA WD 6-2016 revises and supersedes previous publication: ANSI/NEMA WD 6-2002 (R2008), and ANSI/NEMA WD 6-2012. 2016 National Electrical Manufacturers Association SCOPE ANSijNEMA WD 6-2016 Page iii This standard covers dimen
22、sional requirements for plugs and receptacles rated up to 60 Ampere and 600 Volts. It also includes dimensions for wall plates. Also included is the recommended marking for automatically controlled receptacles. 2016 National Electrical Manufacturers Association ANSijNEMA WD 6-2016 Page iv INTRODUCTI
23、ON Throughout this publication the following shall apply: 1) All dimensions are in inches, unless otherwise specified. 2) Decimal dimensions without tolerances shall be subject to a 0.005 inch tolerance. 3) Angular dimensions without tolerances shall be subject to a 1 degree tolerance. 4) “G“ denote
24、s equipment ground. 5) “W“ denotes system ground. 6) Leading edges of plug blades shall be free of burrs and sharp edges. 7) All slots and slot tolerances are symmetrically located about centerlines. 8) Female contacts associated with plug blades that are 0.125 inch minimum longer than other blades,
25、 are engaged prior to the other female contacts. 9) Configurations utilized on alternating current systems, are limited to 50 or 60 Hertz, unless otherwise specified. 10) Dimensions shown in these standards are for the purpose of interchangeability, and do not preclude other designs. 11) The electri
26、cal ratings of the configurations in these standards are AC and DC, unless specifically stated “AC“ or “DC“. 2016 National Electrical Manufacturers Association ANSijNEMA WD 6-2016 Page v MARKING FOR AUTOMATICALLY CONTROLLED RECEPTACLES The following marking is recommended by NEMA to indicate recepta
27、cles or parts of multi-outlet receptacles that are controlled by a system, a device, or incorporate features that remove power from the outlet for the purpose of energy management or building automation. The control could be an energy management system, timer or sensor. The marking is not intended f
28、or other devices such as GFCI or a fused or temperature controlled device intended to interrupt power for safety reasons unless the device is also part of a control system. The marking is optional for receptacles controlled by a manually operated wall switch as permitted by code to provide the requi
29、red room lighting outlets. MARKING FOR CONTROLLED RECEPTACLES The purpose of the marking is to instruct the user that the outlet may be subject to unattended switching and to take this into consideration when attaching a plugged-in appliance or other load. Thus it is important to be able to readily
30、identify receptacle outlets that will be powered on and off. The mark may be located either on or close to the controlled receptacle. The mark shall be located such that it clearly identifies the controlled receptacles outlet after installation. The marking may be required by a product standard, an
31、installation code or a similar document. 2016 National Electrical Manufacturers Association This page intentionally left blank - -DIMENSIONAL SPECIFICATION FOR WALLPLATES 1-I I I -r -( B ) -t-I I I - - I ANSI/NEMA WD 6-2016 Page 1 -+-+-4- ( C ) See note 1 1.812 .010 NOTES: Single-gang wallplate over
