GB/T 14048.3-2017 Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear—Part 3:Switches,disconnectors,switch-disconnectors and fuse-combination units
Basic Information
Scope
This part of GB/T 14048 applies to switches, isolators, disconnect switches, and fuse combination devices in distribution circuits and motor circuits with a rated voltage of no more than 1,000 V AC or 1,500 V DC.
Manufacturers shall comply with the relevant standards for the combined fuses to specify the type, rating, and characteristics of the fuses.
This part does not apply to electrical appliances included in the scope of IEC 60947-2, IEC 60947-4-1, and IEC 60947-5-1; however, if the switch and fuse combination devices within the scope of this part are typically used for starting, accelerating, and/or stopping a single motor, they shall meet the additional requirements specified in Appendix A.
The requirements for three-pole switches with single-pole operation are included in Appendix C.
The auxiliary switches used in electrical appliances within the scope of this part shall meet the requirements of IEC 60947-5-1.
This part does not include additional requirements for explosion-proof electrical appliances.
Note 1: A switch (or isolator) can be referred to as a "rotary switch (or rotary isolator)" or a "cam switch (or cam isolator)" based on its structure.
Note 2: The term "switch" in this part can also refer to electrical appliances called "commutateurs" in French, which are used to change the connections between several circuits, particularly to replace one part of a circuit with another.
Note 3: In this part, switches, isolators, disconnect switches, and fuse combination devices are commonly referred to as "electrical appliances".
The purpose of this part is to specify:
a) The characteristics of electrical appliances.
b) The relevant conditions that electrical appliances should meet:
1) Operation and performance under normal use conditions;
2) Operation and performance under specified abnormal conditions (such as short-circuit conditions);
3)
