The type test quantity shall consist of five starters to be submitted to the tests specified in 7.3 to 7.11 and 7.12.1, and 10 capacitors to be submitted to the test specified in 7.12.2 and 7.12.3. In addition, for starters with operating time limitations, five starters shall be submitted to the test specified in 7.13.
The type shall be considered as satistying the requirements of this subclause if all five starters comply with the tests specitied in 7.3 to 7.11 and in 7.12.1 and if applicable, 7.13,and if all 10 capacitors comply with the tests specified in 7.12.2 and 7.12.3.
If any failures occur during a test, that test and the preceding ones, which may have influ-enced the results of that test, are repeated on a further five starters, all of which shall then comply with the repeated tests.
All 10 starter capacitors submitted to the tests specified in 7.12.2 and 7.12.3 shall pass the tests. If any failure occurs during these tests, they shall be repeated on a further 10 starter capacitors, all of which shall comply with the repeated tests.
Enclosures for interchangeable starters shall ensure protection against electric shocks.Protection may be ensured either by an insulating enclosure, by an appropriate non-metallic lining, or other means which prevent accidental contact between live parts and the enclosure.
lmmediately after a humidity treatment of 24 h × 2 in an atmosphere of 91 % to 95 % relative humidity, and an ambient temperature between 20 °C and 27 °C maintained within limits of ±1 °C, the insulation resistance between live parts and the metal canister of the starter shall be not less than 2 MO measured after 1 min at 500 V d.c. In the case of canisters of insulating material, they shall be covered by tinfoil and the preceding require-ments shall be satisfied, the test being carried out between the foil and live parts.
The starter shall withstand a torque of 0,6 Nm about the axis and applied at the top of the canister by holding the pins in a fixed support. The torque shall not be applied suddenly but increased gradually from zero to the value specitied.AS 60155 pdf free download.
