29、unted electric-fence controllers with peak-discharge or sinusoidal-discharge output for indoor or outdoor use, including battery-operated controllers intended to operate from battery circuits of 42.4 V or less, line-operated controllers intended to operate from circuits of 125 V or less, combination
30、 controllers intended to operate from either a battery or a line circuit, and photovoltaic module battery operated controllers. 1.4 These requirements do not cover electric-fence controllers for the continuous (uninterrupted) current type or intermediate equipment, such as a converter, a rectier, or
31、 the like, that is sometimes used between the primary source of supply and an electric-fence controller and that is investigated only as part of a complete controller. 1.5 These requirements do not cover electric-fence controllers for use with electried security fences. 1.5 added January 7, 2013 2 C
32、omponents 2.1 Except as indicated in 2.2, a component of a product covered by this standard shall comply with the requirements for that component. See Appendix A for a list of standards covering components generally used in the products covered by this standard. 2.2 A component need not comply with
33、a specic requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic not needed in the application of the component in the product covered by this standard, or b) Is superceded by a requirement in this standard. 2.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its recognized rating established for the
34、 intended conditions of use. 2.4 Specic components are recognized as being incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such components are intended for use only under limited conditions, such as certain temperatures not exceeding specied limits, and shall be used o
