Motor and Generator Standards
Good engineering practice mandates as minimum specifying electrical equipment through their
application, proposed location, physical constraints, available power sources, motor starting
methodology requirements, ambient conditions, and the presence of any caustic or flammable
and combustible materials or substances being processed, handled, or transported by that
equipment. The codes, standards, and recommended practices applied to any equipment
specification should assure that the equipment can operate under those circumstances. Motors,
generators, and motor control equipment operating in electrically hazardous (classified) ...
