IS 14578 : 1999 Three-phase induction motors for use in nuclear power plants

ICS 29.160.30; 27.120.20 ETD 15
Reaffirmed 2019

1 Scope

1.1 This standard covers three-phase induction motors forvoltages up to and including 11 000 volts having windings withClass B, Class F and Class C insulation (see IS 1271) for use inNuclear Power Plants. The motors specified in this standard areassigned any one of the ratings specified in 9.4.

1.2 Motors within the scope of this standard for use on systemsemploying non-preferred voltages and frequencies shall beconsidered as complying with this standard provided that theycomply in all other respects with this standard. The voltages andfrequency for which they are designed shall be stated on the ratingplate.

1.3 In addition to this standard, the motor shall comply with IS325 in cases where no specific requirement is given in thisstandard.
