Description / Abstract:
IEEE Std 622A-1984 provides recommended practices for designing
and installing electric pipe heating control and alarm systems as
applied to mechanical piping systems that require heat. The
recommendations include selection of control and alarm systems,
accuracy considerations, local control usage, centralized control
usage, qualification criteria of controls and alarms, and
calibration and testing of controls and alarms.
Purpose
The purpose of this recommended practice is to provide
recommendations that will ensure design consistency and reliable
operation of electric pipe heating control and alarm systems which
in turn will ensure that piping systems' fluids will be available
for use not only during station operation but also during normal
shutdown.
