IEC 60349-1:2010
Electric traction - Rotating electrical machines for rail and road vehicles - Part 1: Machines other than electronic converter-fed alternating current motors
IEC 60349-1:2010 is applicable to rotating electrical machines, other than electronic converter-fed alternating current motors, forming part of the equipment of electrically propelled rail and road vehicles. The vehicles may obtain power either from an external supply or from an internal source. The object of this standard is to enable the performance of a machine to be confirmed by tests and to provide a basis for assessment of its suitability for a specified duty and for comparison with other machines. The main technical changes with regard to the previous edition are as follows:- the limits valid for traction motors are now directly stated in this standard;- the methods described in the relevant ISO standards are now allowed.

Enables the performance of a machine to be confirmed by tests and to provide a basis for assessment of its suitability for a specified duty and for a comparison with other machines. Applies to traction motors, engine driven main generators, main motor-generator sets, auxiliary motors, auxiliary generators, auxiliary motor-generator sets and auxiliary rotary convertors.
The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
