12、al Manufacturers Association AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Approval of an American National Standard requires verification by The American National Standards Institute, Inc. (ANSI) that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer
13、. An American National Standard implies a consensus of those substantially concerned with its scope and provisions. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly, and materially affected interests. Substantial
14、 agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. The existence of an American National Standard does not in any respect preclude anyone, wheth
15、er s/he has approved the standard or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. It is intended as a guide to aid the manufacturer, the consumer, and the general public. The American National Standards Institute, Inc.,
16、does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard. Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue an interpretation of an American National Standard in the name of the American National Standards Institute, Inc. Requests
17、for interpretations should be addressed to the secretariat or sponsor whose name appears on this title page. CAUTION NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute, Inc., require that action be taken period
18、ically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this standard.

45、 2017 National Electrical Manufacturers Association 1 Scope 1.1 This standard is intended to cover high frequency ballasts which have rated open-circuit voltages of 2000 volts or less, operate the lamp at frequencies between 10 kHz and 500 kHz., and are intended to operate at a supply frequency of 5
46、0 Hz or 60 Hz. This comprises ballasts for hot-cathode fluorescent lamps, either switch-start (preheat-start), rapid-start (continuously heated cathodes), modified rapid start, programmed start, or instant start used primarily for lighting purposes. The ballast and lamp combinations covered by this
47、specification are normally intended for use in room ambient temperatures of 10C to 40C. At ambient temperatures outside this range, certain special operating characteristics may be required. 1.2 Important patent disclaimer At the time of publication, it is possible that some of the elements of this
48、document may be the subject of patent rights. When this Standard was approved for publication, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) did not know of any patent applications, patents pending, or existing patents. NEMA shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such pa
49、tent rights. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions, which through reference in this text constitute provisions of this American National Standard.
