44、the requirements for cord sets and power-supply cords employing molded-on or assembled-on ttings, rated 600 V maximum, and intended for use in non-hazardous locations in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. 1.2 This Standard also species the requirements for molded-on general-
45、use attachment plugs and cord connectors. 1.3 This Standard also species the requirements for hospital grade attachment plugs and cord connectors. 1.4 This Standard also species the requirements for cord restraint devices. 1.5 These requirements do not cover cord sets intended for temporary outdoor
46、use not to exceed 90 days with outdoor equipment, Christmas-tree, and other seasonal decorative-lighting outts. Such devices are covered by the Standard for Outdoor Seasonal-Use Cord-Connected Wiring Devices, UL 2438. 2 Components 2.1 Except as indicated in 2.2, a component of a product covered by t
47、his 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 is not required to comply with a specic requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic no
48、t required in the application of the component in the product covered by this standard, or b) Is superseded by a requirement in this standard. 2.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.4 Specic components are incomplete in construct
49、ion 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 only under those specic conditions.
