Summarise this standard

Applies to a.c. and d.c. contactors and a.c. motor-starters whose main contacts are intended to be connected to circuits, the rated voltage of which does not exceed 1000 volt a.c. or 1500 volt d.c. Specifies requirements for contactors associated with overload or short-circuit protective devices, starters associated with short-circuit and integrated overload protective devices and contactors or starters combined with their own short-circuit protective devices. This Standard is technically equivalent to and reproduced from IEC 947-4-1:1990.

This standard applies to the types of equipment listed in Subclauses 1.1.1 and 1.1.2 hereinafter whose main contacts are intended to be connected to circuits the rated voltage of which does not exceed 1 000 V a.c. or1 500 V d.c.Starters and/or contactors dealt with in this standard are not normally designed to interrupt short-circuit currents. Therefore, suitable short-circuit protection (see Sub-clause 8.3.4) shall form part of the installation but not necessarily of the contactor or the starter.In this context, this standard gives requirements for:- contactors associated with overload and/or short-circuit protective devices;- starters associated with separate short-circuit protective devices and/or with separate short-circuit and integrated overload protective devices;- contactors or starters combined, under specified conditions, with their own short-circuit protective devices. Such combinations, e.g. combination starters (see Sub-clause 2.2.7) or protected starters (see Sub-clause 2.2.8) are rated as units.Circuit-breakers and fuse-combination units used as short-circuit protective devices in combination starters and in protected starters shall comply with the requirements of IEC Publications 947-2 and 947-3, as the case may be.
