22、FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL INTRODUCTION 1 Scope 1.1 These requirements cover test procedures to be used in the evaluation of Class 120(E) or higher electrical insulation systems (EIS) where the thermal factor is the dominating aging factor. These requirements als

23、o cover the investigation of the substitution of non-electrical insulating materials (NIM) components of insulation in a previously evaluated insulation system and also the test procedures to be used in the evaluation of magnet wire coatings, magnet wires, and varnishes. 1.2 These requirements for t

24、he evaluation of an EIS do not establish thermal ratings for/or alter established thermal ratings for individual components. 1.3 These requirements do not cover insulation systems exposed to radiation or operating in oils, refrigerants, soaps, or other media that potentially degrade insulating mater

25、ials. 1.4 When any performance aspect of an end-product requirement is not covered by this standard, the applicable standard shall be used. 1.5 These requirements do not cover electrical insulation systems where transient overvoltages or partial discharge are present. Such electrical insulation syst

26、ems shall be evaluated to the appropriate standard for the application. Such standards include, but are not limited to the Test Procedure for Thermal Evaluation of Insulation Systems for Dry-Type Power and Distribution Transformers, Including Open-Wound, Solid-Cast, and Resin-Encapsulated Transforme

27、rs, IEEE C57.12.60. 2 Units of Measurement 2.1 Values stated without parentheses are the requirement. Values in parentheses are explanatory or approximate information. 3 References 3.1 Any undated reference to a code or standard appearing in the requirements of this standard shall be interpreted as

28、referring to the latest edition of that code or standard. 3.2 IEC test methods are the preferred test methods with the ASTM methods presented as technically equivalent except where noted in Table 3.1. If a designation for a test method is followed by an alternate or equivalent designation, in bracke

29、ts, the latter method can be considered technically equivalent, though not necessarily identical, and might yield somewhat different numerical test results.

41、thermal aging data, usually higher in value than the systems rated temperature class. 4.3 CATALYST A substance that alters (usually increases) the rate at which a reaction occurs without being consumed into the reaction. 4.4 CURING AGENT A substance or mixture of substances that promote or control t

42、he reaction process and is consumed in the reaction. 4.5 CYCLE A time period of heat exposure, which is used to induce deterioration at the specic aging temperature, followed by conditioning and diagnostic testing. 4.6 DEAD METAL Metallic part that is at no electrical potential. With respect to the

43、requirements in this Standard, dead metal parts are to be considered the same as if they were at ground potential. 4.7 EIS ELECTRICAL INSULATION SYSTEM Electrical insulating structure containing one or more electrical insulating materials (EIM) together with associated conducting parts employed in a

Mathematically will result in the same value as the log average. 4.11 LOG AVERAGE The antilog of the quotient, dened as the sum of the

48、logs as the dividend, divided by the number of values as the divisor. Preferred method for calculating life but mathematically will result in the same value as the geometric mean.
