ICS 2.4-2003 (R2012) Page iii Copyright 2012 by National Electrical Manufacturers Association FOREWORD This Standards Publication was prepared by a technical committee of the NEMA Industrial Automation Control Products and Systems Section. It was

14、 approved in accordance with the bylaws of NEMA and supersedes the indicated NEMA Standards Publication. This Standards Publication supersedes ICS 2.4-1989 (R2000). This Standards Publication provides practical information concerning ratings, construction, test, performance, and manufacture of indus

15、trial control equipment. These standards are used by the electrical industry to provide guidelines for the manufacture and proper application of reliable products and equipment and to promote the benefits of repetitive manufacturing and widespread product availability. NEMA Standards represent the r

16、esult of many years of research, investigation, and experience by the members of NEMA, its predecessors, its Sections and Committees. They have been developed through continuing consultation among manufacturers, users and national engineering societies and have resulted in improved serviceability of

17、 electrical products with economies to manufacturers and users. One of the primary purposes of this Standards Publication is to encourage the production of reliable control equipment which, in itself, functions in accordance with these accepted standards. Some portions of these standards, such as el

18、ectrical spacings and interrupting ratings, have a direct bearing on safety; almost all of the items in this publication, when applied properly, contribute to safety in one way or another. Properly constructed industrial control equipment is, however, only one factor in minimizing the hazards which

19、may be associated with the use of electricity. The reduction of hazard involves the joint efforts of the various equipment manufacturers, the system designer, the installer, and the user. Information is provided herein to assist users and others in the proper selection of control equipment. The indu

20、strial control manufacturer has limited or no control over the following factors which are vital to a safe installation: a. Environmental conditions b. System design c. Equipment selection and application d. Installation e. Operating practices f. Maintenance This publication is not intended to instr

21、uct the user of control equipment with regard to these factors except insofar as suitable equipment to meet needs can be recognized in this publication and some application guidance is given. This Standards Publication is necessarily confined to defining the construction requirements for industrial

22、control equipment and to providing recommendations for proper selection for use under normal or certain specific conditions. Since any piece of industrial control equipment can be installed, operated, and maintained in such a manner that hazardous conditions may result, conformance with this publica

23、tion does not by itself assure a safe installation. When, however, equipment conforming with these standards is properly selected and is installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code and properly maintained, the hazards to persons and property will be reduced. To continue to serve the be

24、st interests of users of Industrial Control and Systems equipment, the Industrial Automation Control Products and Systems Section is actively cooperating with other standardization organizations in the development of simple and more universal metrology practices. In this publication, the U.S. custom

25、ary units are gradually being supplemented by those of the modernized ICS 2.4-2003 (R2012) Page iv Copyright 2012 by National Electrical Manufacturers Association metric system known as the International Systems of Units (SI). This transition involves no changes in standard dimensions, tolerances, o

26、r performance specifications. NEMA Standards Publications are subject to periodic review. They are revised frequently to reflect user input and to meet changing conditions and technical progress. Proposed revisions to this Standards Publication should be submitted to: Senior Technical Director, Oper

31、 nameplates (labels) that list ratings to help the user select and apply the devices. ICS 2.4-2003 (R2012) Page 2 Copyright 2012 by National Electrical Manufacturers Association 1.2.1.1 NEMA Nameplate Ratings NEMA Size: A standardized rating system of sizes for motor controllers. For each NEMA Size,

32、 there are specifically assigned horsepower, voltage, frequency, and current ratings as defined by the NEMA/ICS Standards. Horsepower and Voltage: The maximum rating (in horsepower) at various voltages corresponding to the values assigned for each NEMA Size. Continuous Current: The maximum current w

33、hich an enclosed starter or contactor may be expected to switch and carry continuously without exceeding the temperature rises permitted by the NEMA Standard. 1.2.1.2 IEC Nameplate Ratings HP and KW: The maximum rating for each mated operational voltage (Ue) and Utilization Category. The most common

34、 Kilowatt or 1HP ratings on a contactor or starter are for Utilization Category AC-3. Utilization Category (Examples: AC-1, AC-3): Describes the types of service for which the controller is rated. (See 2.1). Thermal Current (Ith): The maximum current which a contactor or a starter, each without its

35、enclosure, may be expected to carry continuously without exceeding the temperature rises allowed by the IEC Standard. This is not a load switching rating. Rated Operational Current (Ie): The maximum FLC at which a motor starter or contactor may be used for a given combination of voltage, frequency,

36、and utilization category (AC-1, AC-3, etc). A device may have more than one operational current. Rated Insulation Voltage (Ui): A design parameter sometimes shown on the nameplate that defines the insulation properties of the controller. It is not used for selection or application. Rated Operational

37、 Voltage (Ue): The voltage at which each stated horsepower or kilowatt rating applies. Standard Designation: The specific IEC Standard to which the product has been tested is required by IEC to be marked. 1.2.2 UL Markings Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. policy permits any complying motor control pr

38、oduct to be UL Listed, UL Recognized or UL Classified, and so marked. A product that is UL Listed carries the UL Listing Mark (UL in a circle) on its nameplate adjacent to the ratings to which the UL Listing Mark applies. Adjacent to the UL Listing Mark are the words “Listed Industrial Control Equip

39、ment“ or “Listed Ind. Cont. Eq.“ Listed industrial control equipment is suitable for installation with general use tools and for application at the ratings to which the Listing Mark is related. A UL Listed motor control product complies with the UL 508 Standard, and qualifies for installation under

40、specific provisions of the NEC. A motor control product that is UL Recognized may carry the UL Recognized Component Mark known as the “Backward UR“, the printed letters U and R, joined and reversed, as they would appear in a mirror. When used, according to UL, this mark must appear adjacent to the M

41、anufacturers identification and catalog number. UL Recognized equipment is not suitable for general use and must be combined with other items, under stated conditions of acceptability, into a product which, in turn, may be submitted to ICS 2.4-2003 (R2012) Page 3 Copyright 2012 by National Electrica

42、l Manufacturers Association UL, become UL Listed, and carry, the UL Listing Mark. The conditions of acceptability are published in the manufacturers “UL Component Recognition Report.“ A motor control product that is UL Classified carries the UL in a circle, the word Classified, and a notation that U

43、nderwriters Laboratories has evaluated the product with respect to compliance with a specific characteristic, standard, or part of a standard. ULs classification of a product to such a standard has no bearing on the product s ability to comply with UL 508, or to the NEC. Not every function or rating

44、 shown on the nameplate of a UL Listed, Recognized or Classified product is qualified for use under all Articles of the NEC or necessarily meets all UL Standards. For example, a motor controller with magnetic trip provisions, listed under UL 508 as a motor controller, may not necessarily meet the re

45、quirements for listing under UL 489. UL requires that where a contactor or starter carries a UL Listing Mark, only the ratings covered by that Listing Mark are to appear with the Mark on the nameplate. Other ratings, such as Kilowatt ratings, may be shown, but they must be appropriately segregated.

46、Under certain circumstances, UL allows the manufacturer to use a line as a means of separation between groupings of rating information to show that differentiation. Ratings adjacent to the UL Listing Mark relate to the Listing. Ratings shown on the opposite side of the line do not relate to the devi

47、ce Listing and do not qualify the device for general use in compliance with the NEC. 1.3 REFERENCES For ease of reference, those contactors, overload relays, and starters designed to meet NEMA and UL Standards, with the traditional features and conventions initially provided primarily for the North

48、American market, will be called traditional “NEMA” devices. Those contactors, overload relays, and starters designed to meet IEC Standards, with their associated traditional features and conventions, will be called traditional “IEC“ devices. Many IEC devices conform to NEMA and UL Standards and are

49、marked accordingly, differing only in conventions. Conversely, many NEMA devices conform to IEC Standards, and may be marked accordingly, differing only in conventions. 1.4 CONVENTIONS Practices followed by a majority of manufacturers selling in a given market have resulted in features and characteristics which are associated with either NEMA or IEC devices. This guide attempts to identify those resulting conventions as design philosophies. It also identifies differences in standards, where differences exist. Note: A convention, as used in this
