38、EPRODUCTION ORDISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM ULINTRODUCTIONALL UNITS1 Scope1.1 These requirements cover the fire and casualty aspects associated with the mechanical performanceand the electrical features of engine driven generator assemblies intended for installation in recreationalvehicles.1.
39、2 These requirements cover generators rated: 15 kilowatts or less, 115 volts, 2-wire single phase; 240volts, 2-wire single phase; 115/230 volts, 3-wire single phase; 3 or 4 wire, any voltage, three phase. Thegenerators may incorporate alternator or direct current generator sections for supplying ene
40、rgy to batterycharging circuits. Only generators having systems voltages of less than 150 volts to ground are permittedfor noncommercial applications.1.3 These requirements cover both open and totally-enclosed generators.1.4 A totally-enclosed generator is so enclosed as to prevent the free exchange
41、 of air between the insideand the outside of the enclosure for windings but not sufficiently enclosed as to be airtight.1.5 A generator having ventilating openings that permit the passage of external cooling air over andaround the windings is an open generator.1.6 These requirements cover generator
42、parts and combinations of such parts.1.7 These requirements do not cover generators for use in hazardous locations as defined in the NationalElectrical Code.1.8 These requirements cover only the identified hazard aspects of motor-generator assemblies intendedfor use with recreational vehicles. These
43、 requirements do not cover other possible hazard aspects of suchequipment.1.9 A product that contains features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems new or differentfrom those in use when the standard was developed and that involves a risk of fire, electric shock, or injuryto persons s
44、hall be evaluated using the appropriate additional component and end-product requirementsas determined necessary to maintain the level of safety for the user of the product as originally anticipatedby the intent of this standard.DECEMBER 8, 2006UL 12486UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURT

Such components are intended for use only under limited conditions, such ascertain temperatures not exceeding specified limits, and shall be used only under those specific conditionsfor which they have been recognized.3.5 If the manufacturer assigns a rating or an intended use to a component of a generator (for example,an integral auxiliary switch intended to control an external circuit) the component is to be evaluated forthat rating or use or both.DECEMBER 8, 2006 UL 1248 7UL COP
