BS EN 60349-2:2010 PDF

1   Scope and object This part of IEC 60349 applies to converter-fed alternating current motors forming part of the equipment of electrically propelled rail and road vehicles. The object of this part is to enable the performance of a motor to be confirmed by tests and to provide a basis for assessment of its suitability for a specified duty and for comparison with other motors. Where further testing is to be undertaken in accordance with IEC 61377‑1 and IEC 61377‑‑3, it may be preferable, to avoid duplication, that some type and investigation tests be carried out on the combined test bed. Particular attention is drawn to the need for collaboration between the designers of the motor and its associated converter as detailed in 5.1.

NOTE 1 This part also applies to motors installed on trailers hauled by powered vehicles.

NOTE 2 The basic requirements of this part may be applied to motors for special purpose vehicles such as mine locomotives but this part does not cover flameproof or other special features that may be required.

NOTE 3 It is not intended that this part should apply to motors on small road vehicles, such as battery-fed delivery vehicles, factory trucks, etc. This part also does not apply to minor machines such as windscreen wiper motors, etc. that may be used on all types of vehicles.
