24、r multiple-pair-type communications circuits that are intended to be installed in accordance with Article 800 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. 1.2 Secondary protectors are intended to be used in the protected side of telecommunications networks that have an operating rms voltage to gro

25、und less than 150 volts and installed or used in accordance with the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. 1.3 These requirements do not cover telephone protectors that are covered by the Standard for Protectors for Paired-Conductor Communications Circuits, UL 497. These requirements do not cover telep

26、hone equipment such as telephone answering devices, residential telephone instruments, telephone dialers, cordless telephones, key systems, and private-branch exchange equipment that is covered by the Standard for Information Technology Equipment - Safety - Part 1: General Requirements, UL 60950-1.

27、1.4 These requirements do not cover cellular telephones or other receiver/transmitter-type devices. Equipment of this type is covered by the Standard for Audio-Video Products and Accessories, UL 1492. 1.5 These requirements may be used, directly or by reference, to investigate portions of other equi

29、ticle 800 of the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. 1.7 A product that contains features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems new or different from those covered by the requirements in this standard, and that involves a risk of re or of electric shock or injury to persons shall be eva

30、luated using appropriate additional component and end-product requirements to maintain the level of safety as originally anticipated by the intent of this standard. A product whose features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems conict with specic requirements or provisions of this stan

See Appendix A for a list of standards covering compo

33、nents used in the products covered by this standard. 2.1.2 A component is not required to comply with a specic requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic not required in the application of the component in the product covered by this standard, or b) Is superseded by a requirement in t

34、his standard. 2.1.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.1.4 Specic components are incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such components are intended for use only under limited conditions, s

38、tional or unintentional, between an electrical circuit or electrical equipment and the earth, or to some conducting body that serves in place of the earth. 3.3 ELECTRICAL ENERGY HIGH CURRENT LEVELS (POWER SUPPLIES) Electrical energy that is capable of causing damage or risk of injury to persons (oth

39、er than by electric shock) is determined to exist when, between a live part and an adjacent dead-metal part or between live parts of opposite polarity, there exists a potential of not less than 30 volts rms or 42.4 volts peak (AC or DC) and either: a) An available continuous power level of not less

40、than 250 volt-amperes or b) A reactive energy level of not less than 20 joules. For example, a tool or other metal short-circuiting a component can cause a burn or a re when enough energy is available at the component to vaporize, melt, or more than warm the metal. 3.4 ENCLOSURE The word enclosure r

41、efers only to parts that house or cover: a) Uninsulated live parts that involve a risk of electric shock or b) Parts that involve a risk of re, electrical energy/high-current levels, or injury to persons. An enclosure may be an integral part of a component, a separate item or part of an outer cabine

42、t. 3.5 FIELD-WIRING TERMINAL A terminal to which a telephone circuit may be connected by an installer in the eld. A eld-wiring terminal may consist of a screw-type terminal, quick-connect insulation stripping system, or plug/jack arrangement. 3.6 FIXED OR STATIONARY EQUIPMENT Equipment that is not e

43、asily moved, and is intended to be moved from one place to another only when de-energized. Fixed equipment is usually fastened or secured to a building. 3.7 GROUNDING Establishing an intentional electrically conductive connection between an electrical circuit or electrical equipment and the earth gr

44、ound or to some conducting body that serves in place of the earth. 3.8 LONGITUDINAL VOLTAGE (May also be called Common Mode Voltage) When applied to telecommunications conductors, the voltage common to both tip and ring conductors, or the connection points of such conductors, as measured with regard

45、 to earth ground. 3.9 METALLIC VOLTAGE (May also be called Differential Mode Voltage) When applied to telecommunications conductors, the voltage as measured between tip and ring conductors, of the same telecommunications pair, or the connection points of such tip and ring conductors, with no referen

46、ce to earth ground. 3.10 NETWORK OPERATING VOLTAGES Telecommunications networks normally operate at voltages of 56.5 volts DC or less, unless the source impedance is over 1600 ohms. For equipment connected to a single tip and ring pair, alerting and test voltages higher than 56.5 volts are intermitt

47、ent and will be present over less than 1 percent of the usage of the equipment.

Maximum ringing voltages may not exceed 150 volts as dened by Article 725 of the National Electrical Code for Class 2 and 3 circuits. 3.11 NONPROTECTED SIDE The portion of the loop

49、 circuit that rests on the central office or outside plant side of the primary telephone protector installed by the operating telephone company. The fault current limitation is subject to the breakdown voltage characteristics of the primary protector and its coordinated fusing system with the bridle or fuse wire with which the protector is intended to be used. 3.12 PORTABLE EQUIPMENT Equipment that is easily moved and can be carried or conveyed by hand. Portable equipment is usually hand-he
