Automatic electrical controls for household and similar use -- Part 2-4: Particular requirements for thermal motor protectors for motor-compressors of hermetic and semi-hermetic type

This part of IEC 60730 applies to the partial evaluation of thermal motor protectors as defined in IEC 60730-1 for sealed (hermetic and semi-hermetic type) motor-compressors. A thermal motor protector is an integrated control which is dependent on its correct mounting and fixing in or on a motor and which can only be fully tested in combination with the relevant motor. Requirements concerning the testing of the combination of motor and thermal motor protectors are given in IEC 60335-2-34. This standard applies to thermal motor protectors for motor compressors using NTC or PTC thermistors, additional requirements for which are contained in Annex J. This standard applies to the inherent safety, to the operating values, operating times, and operating sequences, where such are associated with equipment safety, and to the testing of thermal motor protectors used in or on sealed (hermetic and semi-hermetic type) motor-compressors. This standard applies to thermal motor protectors for motor-compressors within the scope of IEC 60335-2-34. Thermal motor protectors for motor compressors not intended for normal household use, but which nevertheless may be used by the public, such as equipment intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard. This standard does not apply to thermal motor protectors designed exclusively for industrial applications.

Part 2-4: Particular requirements for thermal motor protectors
for motor-compressors of hermetic and semi-hermetic type
FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 60730-2-4 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 72: Automatic controls for household use. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1990, Amendment 1 (1994) and Amendment 2 (2001).
This second edition constitutes a technical revision and updates the standard to current practices as well as to the applicable horizontal standards.

The text of this standard is based upon the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting 72/710/FDIS 72/723/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this part can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. This Part 2-4 is intended to be used in conjunction with IEC 60730-1. It was established on the basis of the third edition of that standard (1999) and its Amendment 1 (2003). Consideration may be given to future editions of, or amendments to, IEC 60730-1. This Part 2-4 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 60730-1 so as to convert that publication into the IEC standard: Particular requirements for thermal motor protectors for motor-compressors or hermetic and semi-hermetic type. Where this Part 2-4 states "addition", "modification" or "replacement", the relevant requirement, test specification or explanatory matter in Part 1 shall be adapted accordingly. Where no change is necessary, this Part 2-4 indicates that the relevant clause or subclause applies. In the development of a fully international standard, it has been necessary to take into consideration the differing requirements resulting from practical experience in various parts of the world and to recognize the variation in national electrical systems and wiring rules. The “in some countries” notes regarding differing national practice are contained in the following clauses and subclauses: - 6.101 - Table 7.2, item 101 - 12.2 - 17.2 - Table 17.2 - 17.2.1 - 17.2.2 - 18.1.3.101.2 - 20.1 - 20.2 - 20.3 - 20.3.1 - Table 20.3.101 - Annex D In this publication, the following print types are used: – Requirements proper: in roman type. – Test specifications: in italic type. – Explanatory matter: in smaller roman type.

a trip-free mechanism in which the contacts cannot be prevented from opening and which may automatically be reset to the "closed" position after normal operation conditions have been restored if the reset means is held in the "reset" position (Type 3.H); 6.4.3.101
Thermal motor protectors are further classified according to the following constructional or operational features: – non-self-resetting (Type 3.B.H); – self-resetting (Type 3.C). Additional subclause: 6.101
According to limited short-circuit capability (applicable in Canada and the USA) For limited short-circuit test details, refer to 17.2. Not all designs of devices are capable of sustaining or interrupting the short-circuit current without introducing a fire hazard. There is definite evidence that a short circuit in an unprotected motor by itself may not necessarily introduce a fire hazard because the circuit is safely de-energized by the opening of the mains overcurrent device. But if there is a thermal protector in the path of the fault current, a fire may result from an arcing disturbance when this protector attempts to clear the fault. Such disturbances can and do occur before the mains overcurrent device has an opportunity to open. The tests of 17.2 are designed to assess the operation of a thermal motor protector under these conditions. 7 Information This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows: 7.2.6 Replacement: For thermal motor protectors for hermetic motor-compressors, information shall be provided as indicated in Table 7.2.
