34、 PREFACE This is the harmonized CSA Group, and UL standard for Transfer Switch Equipment Over 1000 Volts. It is the First edition of CSA C22.2 No. 178.3, and the Second edition of UL 1008A. This edition of UL 1008A supersedes the First edition titled, Medium-Voltage Transfer Switches, published on M

35、arch 30, 2012. This harmonized standard was prepared by the CSA Group and Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL). The efforts and support of the Technical Harmonization Subcommittee, THSC 121A WG8, Transfer Switches over 750V, on the Harmonization of Electrotechnical Standards of the Nations of the Ame

36、ricas (CANENA), are gratefully acknowledged. This standard is considered suitable for use for conformity assessment within the stated scope of the standard. This standard was reviewed by the CSA Subcommittee on High Voltage Transfer Switches, under the jurisdiction of the CSA Technical Committee on

37、Industrial Products (TCIP) and the CSA Strategic Steering Committee on requirements for Electrical Safety (SCORES), and has been formally approved by the CSA Technical Committee. This standard has been approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) as an American National Standard. App

38、lication of Standard Where reference is made to a specic number of samples to be tested, the specied number is to be considered a minimum quantity. Note: Although the intended primary application of this standard is stated in its scope, it is important to note that it remains the responsibility of t

39、he users of the standard to judge its suitability for their particular purpose. Level of Harmonization This standard is published as an equivalent standard for CSA Group and UL. An equivalent standard is a standard that is substantially the same in technical content, except as follows: Technical nat

40、ional differences are allowed for codes and governmental regulations as well as those recognized as being in accordance with NAFTA Article 905, for example, because of fundamental climatic, geographical, technological, or infrastructural factors, scientic justication, or the level of protection that

41、 the country considers appropriate. Presentation is word for word except for editorial changes. Reasons for Differences From IEC There is no corresponding IEC standard. Interpretations The interpretation by the standards development organization of an identical or equivalent standard is based on the

42、 literal text to determine compliance with the standard in accordance with the procedural rules of the standards development organization. If more than one interpretation of the literal text has been identied, a revision is to be proposed as soon as possible to each of the standards development orga

43、nizations to more accurately reect the intent. SEPTEMBER 5, 2017 CSA C22.2 NO. 178.3-17 UL 1008A 6UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL INTRODUCTION 1 Scope 1.1 These requirements cover automatic, non-automatic, and manual transfer

44、 switches, operating at voltages of greater than 1000 Vac, and intended for use in non-hazardous locations in accordance with Annex B, Item 1, the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1, Part 1, to provide for power as follows: a) Automatic transfer switch

45、es for use in emergency systems in: 1) Emergency systems in accordance with the Standard for Emergency Electrical Power Supply for Buildings, CSA C282-15; 2) Health care facilities in accordance with Rule 24-304 of the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) Part I; 3) Articles 517, Health Care Facilities, a

46、nd 700, Emergency Systems, of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (refer to Annex B, Item 1); and 4) The Health Care Facilities Code, ANSI/NFPA 99, (refer to Annex B, Item 12). Note: Transfer switches for optional standby systems are not recognized in Canada. b) Transfer switches for use in o

47、ptional standby systems in accordance with Article 702 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (refer to Annex B, Item 1). Note: Automatic transfer switches for optional standby systems are not recognized in Canada. c) In legally required standby systems in accordance with Article 701 of the N

48、ational Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70(refer to Annex B, Item 1). Note: Legally-required standby systems are not recognized in Canada. d) Automatic transfer switches for use in accordance with the Standard for the Installation of Stationary Pumps for Fire Protection, ANSI/NFPA 20 or the Standard for

49、Fire Pump Controllers, CSA C22.2 No. 263, (refer to Annex B, Item 2). 1.2 These requirements cover transfer switches rated greater than 1000 V to 46 kV. 1.3 These requirements cover transfer switches together with their associated control devices including, but not limited to, voltage sensing relays, frequency sensing relays, and time delay relays. 1.4 An automatic transfer switch as covered by these requirements is a device that automatically transfers a common load from a normal
