Rotating electrical machines - Part 30-1: Efficiency classes of single-speed, three-phase, cage-induction motors (IE code) (IEC 60034-30-1:2014)

EN IEC 60034-30-1 specifies efficiency classes for single-speed electric motors that are rated according to IEC 60034-1 or IEC 60079-0, are rated for operation on a sinusoidal voltage supply and: • have a rated power PN from 0,12 kW to 1 000 kW; • have a rated voltage UN above 50 V up to 1 kV; • have 2, 4, 6 or 8 poles; • are capable of continuous operation at their rated power with a temperature rise within the specified insulation temperature class; • are marked with any ambient temperature within the range of -20 °C to + 60 °C; • are marked with an altitude up to 4000 m above sea level.

Machines électriques tournantes - Partie 30-1: Classes de rendement pour les moteurs à courant alternatif alimentés par le réseau (Code IE) (IEC 60034-30-1:2014)

L'IEC 60034-30-1:2014 spécifie les classes de rendement pour les moteurs électriques mono vitesse qui sont classés conformément à la CEI 60034-1 ou à la CEI 60079-0. Ces moteurs sont classés pour fonctionner avec une tension d'alimentation sinusoïdale. La présente norme définit un ensemble de valeurs limites de rendement en se basant sur la fréquence, le nombre de pôles et la puissance du moteur. Aucune distinction n'est établie entre les technologies de moteur, la tension d'alimentation ou les moteurs ayant une isolation renforcée, conçus en particulier pour le fonctionnement des convertisseurs, même si ces technologies de moteur peuvent ne pas être toutes en mesure d'atteindre les classes de rendement supérieures. Ceci permet de comparer entièrement des technologies de moteur différentes en fonction de leur potentiel de rendement énergétique.

ROTATING ELECTRICAL MACHINES –

Part 30-1: Efficiency classes of line operated AC motors (IE code)

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 itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
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 60034-30-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 2:
Rotating machinery.
This first edition of IEC 60034-30-1 cancels and replaces IEC 60034-30 (2008). It also
cancels and replaces Annex A of IEC 60034-31 (2010). In the next revision of IEC 60034-
31:2010 this annex will be removed from its contents.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:

INTRODUCTION
This IEC standard provides for the global harmonization of energy-efficiency classes of
electric motors. It deals with all kinds of electric motors that are rated for line operation
(including starting at reduced voltage). This includes all single- and three-phase low voltage
induction motors, regardless of their rated voltage and frequency, as well as line-start
permanent-magnet motors.
A second part of this standard series (IEC 60034-30-2) will be prepared for motors rated for
variable voltage and frequency supply, such as synchronous motors. The second part will also
provide for harmonic voltage losses in motors capable of line operation when fed by
frequency converters.
IEC 60034-30-1 widens the product range covered in the first edition of IEC 60034-30
significantly. The power range has been expanded (starting at 0,12 kW and ending at 1 000
kW). All technical constructions of electric motors are covered as long as they are rated for
on-line operation and not just three-phase, cage-induction motors as in the first edition.
The IE4 class is newly included in this standard. The informative definition of IE4, which was
previously included in IEC/TS 60034-31:2010, is therefore outdated.
The new class IE5 is not yet defined in detail but is envisaged for potential products in a
future edition of the standard.
For a given power and frame size it is generally easier to achieve a higher motor efficiency
when the motor is designed for and operated directly on-line with a 60 Hz supply frequency
rather than on 50 Hz as explained in Note 1.
NOTE 1 As the utilization and size of motors are related to torque rather than power the theoretical power of
single-speed motors increases linearly with supply frequency (and hence with speed), i.e. by 20 % from 50 Hz to
60 Hz.
2
I R winding-losses are dominant especially in small and medium sized induction motors. They basically remain
constant at 50 Hz and 60 Hz as long as the torque is kept constant. Although windage, friction and iron losses
increase with frequency, they play a minor role especially in motors with a number of poles of four and higher.
Therefore, at 60 Hz, the losses increase less than the 20 % power increase when compared to 50 Hz and
consequently, the efficiency is improved.
In practice, both 60 Hz and 50 Hz power designations of single-speed motors have to conform to standard power
levels in accordance with IEC 60072-1 and local standards such as EN 50347. Therefore, an increased rating of
motor power by 20 % is not always possible. However the general advantage of 60 Hz still applies when the motor
design is optimized for the respective supply frequency rather than just re-rated.
The difference in efficiency between 50 Hz and 60 Hz varies with the number of poles and the size of the motor. In
general, the 60 Hz efficiency of three-phase, cage-induction motors in the power range from 0,75 kW up to 375 kW
is between 2,5 percentage points to less than 0,5 percentage points greater when compared to the 50 Hz
efficiency. Only large 2-pole motors may experience a reduced efficiency at 60 Hz due to their high share of iron,
windage and friction losses.
It is not expected that all manufacturers will produce motors for all efficiency classes nor all
ratings of a given class.
Users should select the efficiency class in accordance with a given application depending on
the actual operating hours. It may not be energy efficient to select motors of a high efficiency
class for intermittent or short time duty due to increased inertia and start-up losses.
NOTE 2 The application guide IEC/TS 60034-31:2010 gives further information on useful applications of high-
efficient electric motors.
In order to achieve a significant market share it is essential for high-efficiency motors to meet
national/regional standards for assigned powers in relation to mechanical dimensions (such
as frame-size, flanges). There are a number of national/regional frame assignment standards
(EN 50347, JIS C 4212, NBR 17094, NEMA MG13, SANS 1804 and others) but there is no

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------

– 6 – IEC 60034-30-1:2014 © IEC 2014
IEC standard. As this standard (IEC 60034-30-1) defines energy-efficiency classes
independent of dimensional constraints it may not be possible in all markets to produce
motors with higher efficiency classes and maintain the mechanical dimensions of the
national/regional standards.
IE codes are not limited to motors but may be used to classify other components such as
frequency converters and gearboxes.
However, it is anticipated that other components are rated with a comparable system: IE1
meaning low efficiency up to IE5 meaning the highest efficiency.
Combinations of components (such as power drive systems) will need a combined efficiency
rating. That rating should not be an IE code in order to avoid confusion. It will be defined in
other IEC standards.
The efficiency levels in this standard for 50 Hz and 60 Hz are not always entirely consistent
across all numbers of poles and over the whole power range.
NOTE 3 The efficiency levels for 60 Hz motors were assigned for compatibility with U.S. legal requirements.
NOTE 4 The efficiency levels for 50 Hz motors between 0,75 kW and 375 kW remain unchanged for compatibility
with European legal requirements.

ROTATING ELECTRICAL MACHINES –

Part 30-1: Efficiency classes of line operated AC motors (IE code)



1 Scope
This part of IEC 60034 specifies efficiency classes for single-speed electric motors that are
rated according to IEC 60034-1 or IEC 60079-0, are rated for operation on a sinusoidal
voltage supply and:
• have a rated power P from 0,12 kW to 1 000 kW;
N
• have a rated voltage U above 50 V up to 1 kV;
N
• have 2, 4, 6 or 8 poles;
• are capable of continuous operation at their rated power with a temperature rise within the
specified insulation temperature class;
NOTE 1 Most motors covered by this standard are rated for duty type S1 (continuous duty). However, some
motors that are rated for other duty cycles are still capable of continuous operation at their rated power and
these motors are also covered.
• are marked with any ambient temperature within the range of –20 °C to + 60 °C;
NOTE 2 The rated efficiency and efficiency classes are based on 25 °C ambient temperature according to
IEC 60034-2-1.
NOTE 3 Motors rated for temperatures outside the range – 20 °C and + 60 °C are considered to be of special
construction and are consequently excluded from this standard.
NOTE 4 Smoke extraction motors with a temperature class of up to and including 400 °C are covered by this
standard.
• are marked with an altitude up to 4 000 m above sea level.
NOTE 5 The rated efficiency and efficiency class are based on a rating for altitudes up to 1 000 m above sea
level.
This standard establishes a set of limit efficiency values based on frequency, number of poles
and motor power. No distinction is made between motor technologies, supply voltage or
motors with increased insulation designed specifically for converter operation even though
these motor technologies may not all be capable of reaching the higher efficiency classes
(see Table 1). This makes different motor technologies fully comparable with respect to their
energy efficiency potential.
NOTE 6 Regulators should consider the above constraints when assigning national minimum energy-efficiency
performance standards (MEPS) with respect to any particular type of motor.
The efficiency of power-drive systems is not covered by this standard. In particular, motor
losses due to harmonic content of the supply voltage, losses in cables, filters and frequency-
converters, are not covered.
Motors with flanges, feet and/or shafts with mechanical dimensions different from
IEC 60072-1 are covered by this standard.
Geared motors are covered by this standard including those incorporating non-standard
shafts and flanges.
Excluded are:
• Single-speed motors with 10 or more poles or multi-speed motors.

– 8 – IEC 60034-30-1:2014 © IEC 2014
• Motors with mechanical commutators (such as DC motors).
• Motors completely integrated into a machine (for example pump, fan and compressor) that
cannot be practically tested separately from the machine even with provision of a
temporary end-shield and drive-end bearing. This means the motor shall: a) share
common components (apart from connectors such as bolts) with the driven unit (for
example, a shaft or housing) and; b) not be designed in such a way as to enable the motor
to be separated from the driven unit as an entire motor that can operate independently of
the driven unit. That is, for a motor to be excluded from this standard, the process of
separation shall render the motor inoperative.
(TEAO, IC418) Totally enclosed air-over machines, i.e. totally enclosed frame-surface
cooled machines intended for exterior cooling by a ventilating means external to the
machine, are covered by this standard. Efficiency testing of such motors may be
performed with the fan removed and the cooling provided by an external blower with a
similar airflow rate as the original fan.
• Motors with integrated frequency-converters (compact drives) when the motor cannot be
tested separately from the converter. Energy efficiency classification of compact drives
shall be based on the complete product (PDS : Power Drive System) and will be defined in
a separate standard.
NOTE 7 A motor is not excluded when the motor and frequency-converter can be separated and the motor
can be tested independently of the converter.
• Brake motors when the brake is an integral part of the inner motor construction and can
neither be removed nor supplied by a separate power source during the testing of motor
efficiency.
NOTE 8 Brake motors with a brake coil that is integrated into the flange of the motor are covered as long as it
is possible to test motor efficiency without the losses of the brake (for example by dismantling the brake or by
energizing the brake coil from a separate power source).
When the manufacturer offers a motor of the same design with and without a brake the
test of motor efficiency may be done on a motor without the brake. The determined
efficiency may then be used as the rating of both motor and brake motor.
• Submersible motors specifically designed to operate wholly immersed in a liquid.
• Smoke extraction motors with a temperature class above 400 °C.
