Introduction | Overview of the key US standards

Overview of the key US standards

NSB0_01920b

IEC
UL/NFPA
IEC/UL/NFPA
CSA

UL and IEC are fundamentally different. The IEC standards for the IEC market merely define the minimum safety requirements for a
device or system. The technical details relating to how safety requirements are to be implemented are in practice a matter for the
manufacturer. Every electrical machine or system in the USA is investigated by an inspector, the so-called Authority Having
Jurisdiction (AHJ), prior to commissioning. The National Electrical Code (NEC), respective application-specific standards as well as
local standards and specifications form the basis for acceptance.

The following standards are of essential importance to mechanical engineers and panel builders:
• UL 508A for industrial control panels
• NFPA 79 (Electrical Standard for Industrial Machinery) for industrial machines
• NEC (National Electrical Code, NFPA 70) for electrical on-site installation

Overview of the key US standards | Introduction

Marks Applications
The UL Listing Mark is the most frequently used symbol. Products (e.g. washing machines, computers, electrical switchgear, fire
I
extinguishers, personal flotation devices, etc.) which carry this mark meet all UL's safety requirements and are allowed to be installed
universally and without further instruction or restriction of use. Our own portfolio, for example, offers contactors in accordance with
UL 508 or circuit breakers in accordance with UL 489.

C-UL Listing Mark: This mark is applied to products for the Canadian market. You will see this mark on appliances and computer
equipment, vending machines, household burglar alarm systems, lighting fixtures, and many other types of products.

C-UL US Listing Mark: Introduced in 1998, this mark indicates compliance of the products with both Canadian and U.S. requirements.
The Canada/U.S. UL mark is optional. UL encourages those manufacturers with products certified for both countries to use this combined
mark, but they may continue using separate UL marks for the United States and Canada.

Recognized Component Mark: This mark is used on components and devices that are incorporated in machines, systems or products
such as washing machines. These components may have restrictions on their performance or may be incomplete in construction. The
Component Recognition Mark is found on a wide range of products, including some switches, power supplies, printed wiring boards,
some kinds of industrial control equipment and many other products. They are allowed to be installed only by properly qualified
personnel, as the "Conditions of Acceptability (CoA)" apply to these devices in all cases. Examples of our products that bear the UR mark
include our miniature circuit breakers which meet UL 1077, our time switches which meet UL 917, and our SITOR fuses.
Canadian Recognized Component Mark (similar to the Recognized Component Mark – see above): Components approved for the
Canadian market carry this mark.

Recognized Component Mark for Canada and the United States: Components carrying this mark, which became effective in 1998,
meet the requirements of the US and Canadian markets for Recognized Components. Although UL had not originally planned to
introduce a combined Recognized Component Mark, the popularity of Canada/U.S. listing marks among clients led to the new mark.

Certifications such as u and U are issued by the so-called NRTLs (Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories) after successful
testing. The OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) has accredited Underwriters Laboratories Inc. as an NRTL.

Introduction | Overcurrent protection according to network standards

Overcurrent protection according to

network standards
I Overcurrent protection
The term "overcurrent" refers to the overload, short-circuit and ground-fault current when this exceeds the rated value of the
protective device. Overcurrent protection is understood to be a device designed to open a circuit when the rated current is
exceeded. The ampere rating of the device is selected for a circuit to terminate a condition where the current exceeds the rating
of conductors and equipment due to overloads, short circuits and faults to ground.

UL 508A distinguishes between straight rating and slash rating. Which of these two ratings applies depends on the existing
system type.

Slash rating Straight rating

There are two voltages (phase – phase/phase – ground) in a In the common industrial networks (see table) there is only
solidly grounded wye network. These two voltages are also one voltage. Such networks are called "straight networks".
specified along with the rating, e.g. 480 Y/277 V. A device When choosing short-circuit protection devices, attention
suitable for this network has a slash rating. must be paid to whether devices are approved for straight or
slash rating.

Notice: The PE must not carry any current.
There is no PEN conductor --> N = grounded conductor (white or gray);
separate conductors must be used for PE and N.

Y describes the "Solidly grounded circuit". The value "Y" indicates the voltage between the phases (e.g. 480 V), and the value behind the slash indicates the voltage between the phase and
the grounding or the neutral conductor (e.g. 277 V with 480 V voltage between the phases).

Starter combinations consist of:

Motor circuit protector + contactor + overload relay
The motor circuit protector handles short-circuit protection
and the isolating function. The task of the contactor is the
operational switching of the feeder. The overload relay
handles overload protection that can be specially matched to
the motor.
The motor circuit protector is therefore equipped with an
adjustable and instantaneous short-circuit release.

Air Circuit Breakers

Reliable, versatile and perfectly

integrated

All power distribution systems rely on a secure

infeed of electrical energy. The 3WL air circuit
breakers reliably protect electrical equipment
from damage or fire resulting from short circuit,
ground fault or overload failures.

The 3WL air circuit breakers are used as incoming-

feeder, tie, and outgoing-feeder circuit breakers
in electrical installations in industry, buildings and
infrastructure applications. They have the ability
to communicate and can easily be integrated into
higher-level control and energy management
systems.

The 3WL air circuit breakers switch and protect

motors, capacitors, generators, transformers,
busbars and cables. The modular design and
standardized range of accessories enable the
circuit breakers to be adapted flexibly to different
applications. UL 489-compliant versions are
available for international use.

The 3WL air circuit breakers can optionally be

equipped with a communication module and
integrated into higher-level energy management
systems. Auxiliary, signaling and position switches
report status and fault diagnostics remotely to
higher-level control systems.

One system. For all applications

Requirements for cost- and energy-efficient

operation of electrical power distribution are
on the increase. Whether in industrial plants, in
infrastructure or in buildings: As a modular, highly
adaptable system, the 3VA series of molded case
circuit breakers ensures fully reliable protection of
personnel and plant, and supports every process
phase – from planning to operation of electrical
power distribution.

Comprehensively certified. Deployable worldwide.

3VA molded case circuit breakers are available in

various ranges with IEC approval; other ranges are
available that comply with standard IEC 60947
and standard UL 489. The system is therefore
ideally suited for mechanical engineering
companies and switchgear manufacturers.
The full range of functionalities of molded
case circuit breakers can be used for plant and
equipment operating in Europe and North
America, with absolute standards compliance
assured.

Plug-in and withdrawable technology

The main differences between plug-in units and withdrawable units are convenience of operation and the potential for functional
expansion.

2 Interlocking
• Using interlocking technology, it is possible to mutually interlock
two or more molded case circuit breakers.
• The interlock system is designed to ensure that no more than one
molded case circuit breaker can be operated at a time.
• The following methods of interlocking can be used on 3VA molded
case circuit breakers:
− Front interlock
− Rear interlock
