The marking shall appear on thenameplate, in the terminal box, or near the point where the supply connections are made.Exception: Generators intended for use only as components or specifi

10、c equipment need not be so markedif this information is provided separately.RATIONALE FOR DECISION:Standby generators are intended to provide temporary power under emergency conditions (e.g. untilpower is restored after a storm).The maximum temperature limits in UL 1004-1 are based on a machine oper

11、ating continuously up to thegiven temperature for the entire life of the machine.Since standby generators are intended be operated only under temporary conditions, higher temperaturescan be allowed without compromising the insulation system while still providing an acceptable service lifeof the gene

12、rator.The maximum temperatures allowed for standby generators are 20C below the maximum temperaturelimits for running overload conditions and, depending on the insulation class, between 25-30C below theaverage locked-rotor temperature limits specified in UL 1004-3 for the corresponding insulation cl
