AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Approval of an American National Standard
14、 requires verification by ANSI that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and mate
15、rially affected interests. Substantial 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 use of American National Standards is completely vo
16、luntary; their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has approved the standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. The American National Standards Institute does not develop standards
17、 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. Requests for interpretations should be a

The procedures of the American National Standards Institute require that action be taken periodically to reaffirm, re

37、ational Standard is an adoption of IEC 60974-1 edition 3, Arc Welding Equipment Part 1: Welding power sources, and was developed and approved in accordance with procedures set forth by the American National Standards Institute. It is envisioned that this document will ultimately supersede ANSI/UL 60
38、974-1, which was an adoption of IEC 60974-1, edition 2 and its amendment 1. This standard contains all the original text as-is from IEC 60974-1, edition 3, in addition to a number of U.S. Differences to the IEC standard that were identified by Accredited Standards Committee W1, Requirements for Appa
39、ratus Designed for Use in Arc Welding, Plasma Arc Cutting, and Allied Processes. Each U.S. Difference is found both in a compilation of U.S. differences following this foreword, and inserted in the appropriate place(s) in the standard relating to the difference. Each insertion is in red text and is
40、marked by three lines on its left (two thin, one thick). Each Difference is identified with the following format: Clause/Subclause NumberDVNumber of Difference for the Given Clause/Subclause Following this format, the example 17.1DV.3 signifies that it is the third U.S. Difference to subclause 17.1.
41、 Suggestions for the improvement of this standard are welcome and should be submitted to the Secretariat of Accredited Standards Committee W1 as follows: Greg Winchester, ASC W1 Secretary c/o National Electrical Manufacturers Association 1300 North 17th Street, Suite 1752 Rosslyn, VA 22209 Fax 703-8

This effective date is established by the ANSI Accredited St
46、andards Committee W1 and is not part of this Standard. This Standard cancels and replaces the first edition of ANSI/UL 60974-1 (published March 17, 2005) on the effective date. The requirements in this Standard should be used for new product submittals made after the publication date of this Standar
47、d. If this Standard is used, a product will be evaluated under all of the requirements of this Standard. If a product within the scope of this Standard was listed to ANSI/UL 60974-1 or ANSI/UL 551, compliance with all the requirements in this Standard will be required as a condition of continued Lis

See the section “Foreword for U.S. Adoption“ for an explanation of the format used to identify U.S. Differences. ForewordDV.1 Modify the
49、 foreword by adding the following: The numbering system in this standard uses a space instead of a comma to indicate thousands and uses a comma instead of a period to indicate a decimal point. For example, 1 000 means 1,000 and 1,01 means 1.01. 2DV.1 Modify clause 2 by deleting the reference to IEC 60309-1 2DV.2 Modify clause 2 by adding the following to the list of normative references: IEC 62114, Electrical Insulation Syst
