EN 60034-1:2010

Rotating electrical machines - Part 1: Rating and performance

IEC 60034-1:2010 is applicable to all rotating electrical machines except those covered by other IEC standards, for example, IEC 60349. Machines within the scope of this standard may also be subject to superseding, modifying or additional requirements in other publications, for example, IEC 60079 and IEC 60092. The changes with respect to the previous edition are as follows: - clarification of water coolant temperature, - recognition of IE code, - clarification of the term "tolerances".

Drehende elektrische Maschinen - Teil 1: Bemessung und Betriebsverhalten

Machines électriques tournantes - Partie 1: Caractéristiques assignées et caractéristiques de fonctionnement

La CEI 60034-1:2010 est applicable à toutes les machines électriques tournantes à l'exception de celles qui font l'objet d'autres normes de la CEI, par exemple la CEI 60349. Les machines comprises dans le domaine d'application de la présente norme peuvent également être soumises à des exigences nouvelles, modifiées ou complémentaires figurant dans d'autres publications - par exemple, la série CEI 60079 et la CEI 60092. Les modification par rapport à l'édition précédente sont les suivantes: - clarification portant sur la température de l'eau de refroidissement, - reconnaissance du code IE, - clarification du terme " tolérances ".

Električni rotacijski stroji - 1. del: Nazivni podatki in preskus lastnosti (IEC 60034-1:2010, spremenjen) (vsebuje popravek AC:2010)

Ta del IEC 60034 velja za vse električne rotacijske stroje, razen tiste, ki jih zajemajo drugi IEC standardi, na primer IEC 60349 [10]1. Stroji znotraj področja uporabe tega standarda so lahko tudi predmet zahtev za zamenjavo in spreminjanje ter dodatnih zahtev v drugih objavah, na primer v IEC 60079 [8] in IEC 60092 [9].
