16、ations referred to Inside back coverBS4999-147:1988 iv BSI 07-1999 National foreword This Part of BS4999 has been prepared under the direction of the Power Electrical Engineering Standards Committee and is identical with IECPublication136:1986 “Dimensions of brushes and brush-holders for electrical
17、machinery” including Amendment1, published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). It supersedes BS96:1954 and all of BS4362-A1:1968 with the exception of Appendix A. These two standards are now withdrawn. Appendix A of BS4362-A1:1968 is superseded by BS 4999-146 “Definitions and nom
18、enclature for carbon brushes, brush-holders, commutators and slip-rings” 1) , which is identical with IEC Publication276:1968 “Definitions and nomenclature for carbon brushes, brush-holders, commutators and slip-rings”, including Amendment No.1(1987). Terminology and conventions. The text of the int
19、ernational standard has been approved as suitable for publication as a British Standard without deviation. Some terminology and certain conventions are not identical with those used in British Standards; attention is drawn especially to the following. The comma has been used as a decimal marker. In
20、British Standards it is current practice to use a full point on the baseline as the decimal marker. Wherever page numbers are quoted in the text, they are the IEC page numbers stated in brackets at the bottom of each page. Wherever “IEC” and “the IEC” are given, they should both be read as “BSI”. In
21、 addition to the technically equivalent British Standard, a related British Standard to ISO68 is BS1580 “Specification for unified screw threads” Part3:1965 “Diameters below in.”. The Technical Committee has reviewed the provisions of IEC Publication228, to which reference is made in the text, and h
22、as decided that they are acceptable for use in conjunction with this standard. A related British Standard to IECPublication228 is BS6360:1981 “Specification for conductors in insulated cables and cords”. In Table XIV, Table XV and Table XVI, reference is made to ISORecommendation388. Since publicati
23、on of IEC Publication136 this document has been withdrawn, and the material thicknesses given inTable XXI should be used. It should also be noted that in footnote2) toTable I, the first sentence should read “The tolerances for the brush-holders are in accordance with E10 of ISO/R286.”, the previous
24、standard having been superseded by ISO/R286 “ISO system of limits and fits Part1: General, tolerances and deviations”. BS4500 “ISO limits and fits” Part1:1969 “General, tolerances and deviations” is technically equivalent to ISO/R286. Additional information. In addition to IEC Publications136 and 27
25、6 there are a number of other IEC Publications dealing with brushes, brush-holders, commutators and slip-rings which are not so widely used as to warrant publication as British Standards, but which are, nevertheless, useful for reference purposes. A list of these IEC Publications is given in Nationa

32、tems of units are in use, namely, millimetres and inches, and until all countries adopt the metric dimensions, the following dimensions in inches are included. 4 Marking To avoid confusion between dimensions in millimetres and in inches, brushes and brush-holders should be marked as follows: On brus
33、hes, this marking shall preferably be applied on the same face as the grade marking and may be combined with the grade marking. It should be so placed that it will still be visible when the brush is fully worn. If the manufacturer prefers, the marking may be applied to the opposite face to that carr
34、ying the grade marking. For brush-holders, taking into account the great variety of shapes and constructions, the marking may be applied where the manufacturer prefers, provided it is visible by the user when the brush-holders are mounted on the machine.

It is recognized that, under certain conditions (e.g.w
41、ith reaction brush-holders) where the brush stability does not depend on the fit of the brush in the holder, the maximum clearance between the brush and the brush-holder is unimportant. b) Split brushes Unless otherwise agreed by the user and the supplier, the tolerance of the value t of a set of sp
42、lit brushes is increased by204m (or0,8 thousands of an inch) by reducing its lower limit, whilst maintaining its upper limit unchanged. c) Metal-graphite brushes For those grades of brushes which have an abnormally high thermal expansion, for example certain metal graphite and unburnt graphite grade
43、s, the nominal dimensions given in Table I shall be reduced by an amount at the discretion of the brush manufacturer, and the above tolerances be applied to the dimensions so reduced. These brushes shall, however, be designated by the nominal values ofTable I. In order to facilitate inspection, the
44、brush manufacturer shall state the reduced nominal dimensions when dispatching the brushes.BS4999-147:1988 BSI 07-1999 5 6 Recommended combinations of the principal dimensions t, a and r Table II Preferred combinations t a are printed in bold-face type, as are the preferredvaluesof r.
