CSA C22.2 NO. 61800-5-1:25

CSA Preface This is the first edition of CSA C22.2 No. 61800-5-1, Adjustable speed electrical power drive systems – Part 5-1: Safety requirements — Electrical, thermal and energy, which is an adoption, with Canadian deviations, of the identically titled IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) Standard 61800-5-1 (third edition, 2022-08). This Standard replaces CSA C22.2 No. 274:17, Adjustable speed drives. It is one in a series of Standards issued by CSA Group under Part II of the Canadian Electrical Code. For brevity, this Standard will be referred to as "CSA C22.2 No. 61800-5-1" throughout. This Standard is considered suitable for use for conformity assessment within the stated scope of the Standard. This Standard was reviewed for Canadian adoption by the CSA Integrated Committee on Adjustable Speed Drives, under the jurisdiction of the CSA Technical Committee on Industrial Products and the CSA Strategic Steering Committee on Requirements for Electrical Safety, and has been formally approved by the Technical Committee. This Standard has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group. Scope This part of IEC 61800 specifies requirements for adjustable speed electrical power drive systems (PDS) or their elements, with respect to electrical, thermal, fire, mechanical, energy and other relevant hazards. It does not cover the driven equipment except for interface requirements. It applies to adjustable speed electrical PDS which include the power conversion, basic drive module (BDM)/ complete drive module (CDM) control, and a motor or motors. Excluded are traction and electric vehicle BDM/CDM. It applies to low-voltage adjustable speed electrical PDS intended to feed a motor or motors from a BDM/CDM connected to phase-to-phase voltages of up to and including 1,0 kV AC (50 Hz or 60 Hz) and up to and including 1,5 kV DC. It also applies to high-voltage adjustable speed electrical PDS intended to feed a motor or motors from a BDM/CDM connected to phase-to-phase voltages of up to and including 35 kV AC (50 Hz or 60 Hz) and up to and including 52 kV DC. NOTE 1 At the time of publication of this document, the technical upper voltage limit for DC motors is 2,25 kV DC. NOTE 2 Above voltage and frequency limits reflect the scope of IEC 61800-1 and IEC 61800-2. NOTE 3 For adjustable speed electrical PDS not covered by the scope of this document, applicable requirements of other standards, for example IEC 62477-1 and IEC 62477-2, can be used. This document also applies to PDS which intentionally emit or receive radio waves for the purpose of radio communication. Motors for driven equipment (see Figure 1) are covered by IEC 60034 (all parts). NOTE 4 In some cases, safety requirements of the PDS (for example, protection against access to hazardous parts) can necessitate the use of special components and/or additional measures. 1DV See Clause T.1for Canadian requirements and Canadian deviations.
