ICD Compliance: Gateway to China • The CCC mark is required for specified products for sale in China • Chinese GB standards are similar to IEC standards • ICD Products requiring the CCC mark are: • Low-voltage motor control components, auxiliary contacts • Pushbuttons, relays above 36 V and below 1000 V • Indicator lights, changeover switches, limit switches • Low-voltage switchgear and control gear assemblies • XT complies with and is marked with CCC
ICD Compliance: Gateway to China • ICD products in process for CCC marking: • S 801 N, R, T, V frames pending • Partial Freedom line pending • 50 mm DP line in process • IT contactors/starters have Certified Body certificates, could be CCC certified by repeating EMC tests in Chinese lab.
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) • European Union Directive • Requires the marking and registration of specific electrical & electronic products, primary focus is consumer goods. Recycleable product marking • Requires the collection and reuse or recycling at the end of the product life cycle. • The cost is borne by the producer or importer of the equipment.
Reduction of Hazardous Substances (Ro. HS) • European Union Directive • Restricts the use of several hazardous substances in certain electrical & electronic products. • Implementation date is July 2006 • Restricted substances • • • Hexavalent Chromium PBB & PBDE Mercury Cadmium Lead • XT will conform by end of 2005 • Minor modifications to screw heads and large contactor pcb’s

Applications: Group Motor Installation l Group Motor Installations n n n l NEC Group Motor rules in Article 430 -53 UL requires that overload and controller be listed for Group Motor applications • Magnetic (short circuit) trip of the MMP provides excellent group motor ratings • Up to 65 k. A maximum available short circuit current XTPB & XTPR devices are UL Listed for Group Installations See Application Manual for more information
UL Distinctions – UL 508 Type E l UL 508 Type E Manual Self Protected Combination Starter (MMP Alone) n n Single Device having integral short circuit protection, a main set of contacts, and motor overload protection Legitimate short circuit protective device & disconnect means for the down stream motor • n The unit clears a fault and does not experience welding of the power poles • n Still requires an upstream feeder short circuit protective device but does not require a dedicated in branch circuit protection or disconnect means Remains fully functional should a short circuit within its ratings occur XTPR 32 & 63 amp are UL Listed as Type E devices
UL Distinctions – UL 508 Type F l UL 508 Type F Combination Motor Controller (CMC) n n CMC consists of a Line Side Adapter, MMP, Wiring Connector Link and XTCE Contactor MMP is a self-protected manual combination starter and provides complete motor branch circuit protection • • • n Contactor switches the motor instead of the MMP • • n Disconnecting Means Short Circuit Protection Overload Protection Contactor is not self-protected Provides long life required for most motor switching applications (millions vs. MMP thousands of operations) Magnetic coil provides for remote control via pushbuttons/PLC High fault Type 2 coordination achieved without oversizing XTFC (15, 32 & 52 A) are UL Listed as Type F devices
Underwriters Laboratory UL 508 A – Control Panels l Who is UL and what role do they play? n n n Independent Testing Company Offering 3 rd Party Certification NEMA Centric, but Going Beyond (c. UL) Consistent with NEC Offer a Variety of Listing Services • • UL 891 – Deadfront Switchboards UL 1058 – Drawout ACBs UL 67 – Panelboards UL 98 – Disconnect Switches UL 489 – Molded Case Circuit Breakers UL 508 A – Control Panels UL 508 E – Self Protecting MMPs UL 508 F – Combination Motor Controllers (CMCs)
Applying the Standard l Short Circuit Protection – Panel Rating n No change to the standard, but…. n Enforcement Begins April 2006 n Customers will have to label with a value n Customers can use fuse table or listed combinations with breakers
Applying the Standard Short Circuit Current Ratings l Requires marking SCCR (Short Circuit Current Rating) on industrial control panels. o l SCCR of the panel is based on one of the following: o o l To provide info for safe installation and inspection of panels based on application: i. e. available fault current to panel. Short circuit rating of a listed and labeled assembly Short circuit rating established using an approved method – UL 508 A 2001 Supplement B is an example Components not to be considered in Short Circuit Current Ratings n Transformers, reactors, dry-type capacitors, resistors, varistors, and voltmeters
Applying the Standard Short Circuit Current Ratings • OEM / Panelbuilder determines SCCR on panel by: o o o Short circuit test of the panel construction Obtain documented tested combinations of components list from a manufacturer who has tested and documented combinations of components, and add these combinations to panelbuilder’s UL procedure. Evaluate panel per UL 508 A, Supplement B (required by 4 -06 if jurisdiction does not adopt 2005 NEC earlier). o o o All components in power circuit must have ratings Panel SCCR is the lowest component short circuit rating o Components or combination of components Supplement B provides tables of components w/o marked short circuit ratings
ICD Action Plan n Developing list of EE components with short circuit values (cat no. , short circuit current at application voltage, UL file info, current limiting yes/no) from UL files. Developing list of EE combination short circuit values (SCPD cat no. , motor control cat no. , short circuit current at application voltage, UL file info) from UL files. Product Line Teams Involved: Power control, Drives, Breakers, Disconnect Switches and Transformers n Provide lists to customers via UL data base and website n Target completion date of August 2005
