UL 2200 Figure 8.2 Probe for Moving Parts and Uninsulated Live Parts in Engine Generator Assemblies
8 Protection of Users-Accessibility of Uninsulated Live Parts and Moving Parts-and User Servicing in UL 2200
8.1 The requirements in 8.2-8.17 apply only to low voltage parts that are accessible to the user and are isolated from medium voltage circuits. See 8.18 for requirements for medium voltage parts and low voltage parts that are not isolated from medium voltage circuits. For protection of service personnel requirements, refer to Section 43. Protection of Service Personnel.

8.2 Uninsulated live parts a potential involving a risk of electric shock,risk of electrical high/energy levels or risk of iujury due to moving parts that are located in an area containing access to controls or disconnects by the user shall be insulated or enclosed to reduce the likelihood of contact with such parts, regardless of their location.
8.3 Engine generator assemblies intended to be located within a restricted access area are not considered user accessible when provided with the following:
a) Marked as required by 94.14; and
b) Provided with instructions as specified in 96.4(s).
8.4 To reduce the risk of unintentional contact that involves a risk of electric shock from an uninsulated live part or film-coated wire, electrical energy – high current levels, or injury to persons from a moving part, an opening in an enclosure shall comply with either (a) or (b):
a) For an opening that has a minor dimension (see 8.8) less than 25.4 mm (1 inch), such a rotating part, live part or wire shall not be contacted by the probe illustrated in Figure 8.1.
b) For an opening that has a minor dimension of 25.4 mm (1 inch) or more, such a part or wire shall be spaced from the opening as specified in Table 8.1.
Exception: An opening in an integral enclosure of a motor or altemator is not required to comply with these requirements when it complies with 8.5.
8.5 With respect to a part or wire as specified in 8.4, in an integral enclosure of a generator as specified in the Exception to 8.4:
a) An opening that has a minor dimension (see 8.8) less than 19.1 mm (3/4 inch) complies when:
1)A moving part is not contacted by the probe illustrated in Figure 8.2;
2)Film-coated wire is not contacted by the probe illustrated in Figure 8.3;
3)In a directly accessible generator (see 8.10), an uninsulated live part is not contacted by the probe illustrated in Figure 8.1; and
4) In an indirectly accessible generator (see 8.9). an uninsulated live part is not contacted by the probe illustrated in Figure 8.2.

b) An opening that has a minor dimension of 19.1 mm (3/4 inch) or more complies when a part or wire is spaced from the opening as specified in Table 8.1.

What are the differences of FMVSS 302, UL94 and IEC60695 for flammability test?

Image
The flammability of different materials, such as plastics and other materials used in items such as automobile interiors, electronic devices, and electrical appliances, is evaluated using a number of different standards. Some of these standards are FMVSS 302, UL 94, and IEC 60695. Nevertheless, there are a number of important distinctions between these standards: FMVSS 302 is a specialized standard that was designed for the automotive industry to analyze the flammability of materials used in car interiors. Its purpose is to measure the combustibility of these materials. The UL 94 standard is a more comprehensive regulation that assesses the combustibility of a variety of materials, including plastics, and has applications in a number of different sectors. IEC 60695 is a global standard that is used in the process of assessing the potential for electronic and electrical equipment to catch fire. Testing Procedures The flammability of materials is determined using a variety of testing ...

125 Grounding Contact Test 125.1 Grounding receptacles having a 5-15R,5-20R，6-13R，6-20R，7-15R，14-15Ror 15-15R configuration are to be subjected to the tests in this section. 125.2 Previously untested devices are to be used. Each device is to be mounted in a flush device box, or as otherwise intended, with its face in a vertical plane. A nonmetallic faceplate is to be installed if intended. A solid 14 AWG (2.1 mm2) copper conductor is to be connected to the receptacle grounding terminal. GNGPL SB1610_AL 125.3 With the receptacle oriented to create the maximum contact displacement (possible distortion of contact affecting its contact ability), the test pin A. Figure 125.1 is to be fully inserted in the grounding contact. A 5 lb (2.27 kg) weight is to be gradually suspended form the test pin 6 inches (152 mm) from the face of the receptacle. The weight is to be applied for 1 minute, following which, the weight is to be removed. The application of the weight is to be repeated with the rece...

Accessible parts of equipment with standard IEC 62368 General An accessible part of an equipment is a part that can be touched by a body part. For the purposes of dctermining an accessible part, a body part is represented by one or more of the specified test probes. Accessible parts of an equipment can include parts behind a door, panel, removable cover, etc. that can be opened without the use of a tool. Accessible parts do not include those that become accessible when floor standing equipment having a mass exceeding 40 kg is tilted. For equipment intended for building-in or rack-mounting, or for subassemblies and the like for incorporation in larger equipment,accessible parts do not include those that are not accessible when the equipment or subassembly is installed according to the method of mounting or installation specified in the installation instructions. A part is considered accessible if the instructions or markings intended to be followed require that a person phys...
