Abstract

Specifies the international IC Code which comprises both complete IC designations and (derived) simplified IC designations of various methods of cooling. An annex compares the new Codes with the equivalent (superseded) Codes in IEC 34-6:1969 and AS 1359.21-1974. This Standard is identical with and has been reproduced from IEC 34-6:1991.

Scope

This part of IEC 34 identifiesthe circuit arrangements and the methods of movement of the coolant in rotating electrical machines, classifies the methods of cooling and gives a designation system for them.

The designation of the method of cooling consists of the letters "IC", followed by numerals and letters representing the circuit arrangement, the coolant and the method of movement of the coolant.

A complete designation and a simplified designationare defined. The complete designation system is intended for use mainly when the simplified system is not applicable.

The complete designations, as well as the simplified designations, are illustrated in the tables of annex A for some of the most frequently used types of rotating machines, together with sketches of particular examples.
