These normative references are made at the appropriate places in the text and the cited publications are listed on the inside

15、 back cover. For dated references, only the edition cited applies: any subsequent amendments to or revisions of the cited publication apply to this British Standard only when incorporated in the reference by amendment or revision. For undated references, the latest edition of the cited publication a

16、pplies, together with any amendments. 3 Definitions For the purposes of this British Standard, the following definitions apply. 3.1 (metal-sheathed heating) element A heating assembly comprising a resistance alloy within, and insulated from, a tubular metal sheath. 3.2 duct heater An assembly of met

It may or may not require manual resetting. 3.14 thermal cut-out A device which, during abnormal operation, limits the temperature of a heater, or of parts of it, by opening the circuit or by reducing the current, and which is so constru

24、cted that its setting cannot be altered by the user. 3.15 basic insulation Insulation applied to live parts to provide basic protection against electric shock. NOTE. Basic insulation does not necessarily include insulation used exclusively for functional purposes. 3.16 supplementary insulation Indep

25、endent insulation applied in addition to basic insulation, for protection against electric shock in the event of a failure of the basic insulation. 3.17 double insulation Insulation comprising both basic insulation and supplementary insulation. 3.18 reinforced insulation A single insulation system a

26、pplied to live parts that provides a degree of protection against electric shock equivalent to double insulation. NOTE.

The clamping pressure may be applied directly by a suitably shaped nut or through an intermediate part, such as a washer, clamping plate or anti-spread device. 3.20 pillar terminal Screw-type terminal in which

28、the conductor is inserted into a hole or cavity, where it is clamped under the shank of a screw or screws. The clamping pressure may be applied directly by the shank of the screw or through an intermediate part to which pressure is applied by the shank of the screw. 3.21 screw terminal Screw-type te

29、rminal in which the conductor is clamped under a bolt and washer, the bolt passing through a fixed nut or threaded bush. 3.22 creepage distance The path between two conductive parts, or between a conductive part and the bounding surface of the element, measured across the surface of the insulating m

30、aterial. 3.23 clearance The distance between two conductive parts, or between a conductive part and the bounding surface of the element, measured through air. 4 Heating elements All the heating elements shall conform to BS 7351 : 1990. 5 Rating 5.1 Rated voltage Heaters shall be rated for a line vol

31、tage not greater than 440 V. NOTE. The requirements of this standard are based on the assumption that, in normal use, the voltage between the supply lines and neutral does not exceed 254 V. 5.2 Rated power The actual power output from the heater at the operating temperature, on application of the ra

32、ted voltage, shall not vary from the rated power output by more than the tolerances given in table 1, when verified in accordance with A.1. Table 1.

33、l be in accordance with IP 20 of BS EN 60529 : 1992. 7 Electrical insulation 7.1 The mounting of electrically insulating parts shall be designed so as to prevent breakage or damage due to expansion and contraction. 7.2 Electrically insulating washers, bushings and the like, which are integral parts

34、of the heater, and bases or supports of the mounting of current-carrying parts shall be of a moisture-resistant material which will not be damaged by the temperatures to which they will be subjected under conditions of actual use. 7.3 The insulation between any parts operating at extra-low voltage a

35、nd other live parts, and between the core of the isolating transformer and other metal parts, shall be as specified in BS 3535 : Part 1 and Part 2. 7.4 Parts which serve as supplementary insulation or reinforced insulation shall either: a) be fixed in such a way that they cannot be removed without b

36、eing seriously damaged; or b) be designed so that they cannot be replaced in an incorrect position, and so that, if they are omitted, the appliance is rendered inoperable or manifestly incomplete. NOTE 1. Sleeving may be used as supplementary insulation on internal wiring, if it can only be removed

37、by breaking or cutting, or if it is clamped at both ends. NOTE 2. Lining metal enclosures with a coating of lacquer, or with other material in the form of a coating which can be easily removed by scraping, is not deemed to meet this requirement. 7.5 Inside the terminal enclosure, the sheath of a fle

38、xible cable or cord shall only be used as supplementary insulation where it is not subject to undue mechanical or thermal stresses and if its insulating properties are not less than those specified for the sheaths of flexible cables and cords in BS 6004, BS 6007, or BS 6500. 8 Thermal insulation 8.1

39、 Thermal insulation materials shall not make contact with the heating element. 8.2 Where terminal enclosures are stood off from the mounting plate to give cooling via natural convection, the stand-off areas shall not be thermally insulated.
