Typical applications are given in table 2.<\/p>\n<p>As controllers, they may be used to reduce the amplitude of the r.m.s. a.c. voltage on the load terminals from that of the applied voltage &#8211; either continuously or for a specified period of time. The half-wave period of the a.c. wave form remains unchanged from that of the applied voltage.<\/p>\n<p>They may include a series mechanical switching device and are intended to be connected to circuits, the rated voltage of which does not exceed 1 000 V a.c.<\/p>\n<p>This standard characterizes controllers and contactors for use with or without bypass switching devices.<\/p>\n<p>The semiconductor controllers and contactors dealt with in this standard are not normally intended to interrupt short-circuit currents. Therefore, suitable short-circuit protection (see 8.2.5) should form part of the installation but not necessarily of the controller itself.<\/p>\n<p>In this context, this standard gives requirements for semiconductor controllers and contactors associated with separate short-circuit protective devices.<\/p>\n<p>This standard does not apply to<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>operation of a.c. and d.c. motors;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>low-voltage a.c. semiconductor motor controllers and starters covered by IEC 60947-4-2;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>electronic a.c. power controllers covered by IEC 60146;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>all-or-nothing solid-state relays.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Contactors and control-circuit devices used in semiconductor controllers and contactors should comply with the requirements of their relevant product standard.
