36、component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.4 Specic components are incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such components are intended for use only under limited conditions, such as certain temperatu

37、res not exceeding specied limits, and shall be used only under those specic conditions. 3 Units of Measurement 3.1 Values stated without parentheses are the requirement. Values in parentheses are explanatory or approximate information. 3.2 All applicable alternating-current electrical measurements a

38、re in root-mean-square (rms) units unless otherwise stated. 4 Undated References 4.1 Any undated reference to a code or standard appearing in the requirements of this standard shall be interpreted as referring to the latest edition of that code or standard. 5 Glossary 5.1 For the purposes of this st

39、andard the following denitions apply. 5.2 BUS BAR CLAMP (SISTER LUG) A connector that terminates a single conductor cable and that is secured to a bus bar with an integral set screw. May secure the conductor by soldering, integral pressure wire connector, or by crimping of the clamp body. 5.3 CABLE

40、CONNECTOR A portable receptacle that is intended to provide power, with means for attachment of exible cord or cable and not intended for permanent mounting. 5.4 CABLE-SPLICING BLOCK Power-distribution equipment intended to provide a termination for cable assemblies.
