IEEE Guide for Motor Control Centers Rated up to and including 600 V AC or 1000 V DC with Recommendations Intended to Help Reduce Electrical Hazards
Functional design recommendations and field practices for motor control centers (single- and three-phase 50 Hz and 60 Hz and dc) are provided in this guide. The features and practices described in this guide are intended to help reduce the probability that an incident will occur due to shock or arc flash hazards when qualified persons are performing certain activities. The recommendations within this guide are intended to augment the existing requirements of applicable standards for motor control centers, e.g., NEMA ICS 18 Motor Control Centers, UL 845 Motor Control Centers, NMX-J-353-ANCE, and CSA C22.2 No. 254. This guide also provides recommendations for interface relationships between the specifier, manufacturer, installer, and user for safety-related concerns. It also provides a framework from which specifiers/users can select specific motor control center (MCC) features and system characteristics that are applicable to their specific situation and needs. Safety requirements and procedures as stipulated by workplace safety standards, site practices, and site procedures--e.g., NFPA 70E, Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace, CSA Z462, Workplace Electrical Safety Standard, and site practices on personal protective equipment (PPE)--are complemented by the recommendations in this guide.
