IEC 60947-4-3:2020
Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear - Part 4-3: Contactors and motor-starters - Semiconductor controllers and semiconductor contactors for non-motor loads
IEC 60947-4-3:2020 applies to semiconductor controllers and semiconductor contactors for non-motor load intended to be connected to circuits, the rated voltage of which does not exceed 1 000 V AC.It covers their use:? for operations of changing the state of AC electric circuits between the ON-state and the OFF-state;? with or without bypass switching devices;? as controller, for reducing the amplitude of the RMS AC voltage.This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2014. This edition constitutes a technical revision.This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:a) scope exclusions;b) editorial correction of notes and hanging paragraphs;c) safety aspects related to:- general aspects;- limited energy circuits;- electronic circuits;d) mention of dedicated wiring accessories;e) power consumption measurement;f) alignment to IEC 60947-1:2020;g) alignment with IEC 60947-4-2 when appropriate.
