Motors and Generators Standards, Installation and Design

The best judgment of the Motor and Generator Section on the performance and construction of motors and generators is represented in this electric motor design standard. They are based upon sound engineering principles, research, and records of test and field experience. Also involved is an appreciation of the problems of manufacture, installation, and use derived from consultation with and information obtained from manufacturers, users, inspection authorities, and others having specialized experience. For machines intended for general applications, information as to user needs was determined by the individual companies through normal commercial contact with users. For some motors intended for definite applications, the organizations that participated in the development of the standards are listed at the beginning of those definite-purpose motor standards.
