Description / Abstract:
This standard establishes criteria for qualification of
continuous duty Class 1E motors, located in mild and harsh
environments in nuclear power generating stations in order to
demonstrate their ability to perform their intended safety
functions under all required conditions. This standard does not
apply to motors used in valve actuators (see IEEE Std 382™-1996
[B2]1).
Purpose
The purpose of this standard is to provide direction for the
implementation of the requirements of IEEE Std
323™-20032 as they apply to the specific features of
continuous duty safety-related electric motor qualification. This
standard also provides guidance for qualification of refurbished
motors and insulation systems for motor rewinds.
