1 Scope
This clause of Part 1 is replaced as follows:
1.1 This standard applies to the evaluation of thermal protectors for ballasts for tubular fluorescent lamps.
Requirements concerning the testing of the combination of ballast and thermal protector are given in IEC 920.
Requirements concerning the testing of the combination of ballast and thermal protectors are given in
CAN/CSA-E61347-1 and CSA C22.2 No. 74.
1.1.1 This standard applies to the inherent safety, to the operating values, operating times, and operating sequences where such are associated with equipment safety and to the testing of thermal protectors used to protect ballasts for tubular lamps from overheating.
This Standard applies to thermal protectors for ballasts within the scope of IEC 61347-2-8 and
CSA C22.2 No. 74.
Thermal protectors covered by this standard may be suitable for ballasts for other discharge lamps.
Throughout this standard the word "protector" means "self-resetting thermal ballast protector".
1.1.2 This standard is not applicable to other means used to protect ballasts.
1.1.3 This standard does not apply to a manual device for opening the circuit.
1.2 This standard applies to protectors for use with ballasts for use on a.c. supplies up to 600 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
Requirements relating to use on supplies up to 1 000 V a.c. are under consideration.
1.3 This standard does not take into account the response value of an automatic action of a control, if such a response value is dependent upon the method of mounting the control in the equipment. Where a response value is of
significant purpose for the protection of the user, or surroundings, the value defined in the appropriate household equipment standard or as determined by the
manufacturer shall apply.
1.5 Normative references
In this Standard, any reference to International Standards shall be replaced by the relevant National
Standard of Canada.
Where reference is made to CSA Group publications, such reference shall be considered to refer to the
C22.2 No. 74-16
Equipment for use with electric discharge lamps
The following National Standards of Canada, published by CSA Group, are adoptions of IEC Standards.
The requirements of these CSA Group Standards shall take precedence over the International Standards
on which they are based. Any reference within CSA E60730-2-3 to the International Standard shall be
replaced by a reference to the equivalent Canadian Standard.
