IEC 60252-2:2010+A1:2013 applies to motor start capacitors intended for connection to windings of asynchronous motors supplied from a single-phase system having the frequency of the mains. Covers
impregnated or unimpregnated metallized motor start capacitors
having a dielectric of paper or plastic film, or a combination of
both and electrolytic motor start capacitors with non-solid
electrolyte, with rated voltages up to and including 660 V. The main
changes with respect to the previous edition are:
- definition of segmented film capacitors;
- clearer definition of the purpose of d.c. conditioning in
destruction test.
This consolidated version consists of the second edition (2010)
and its amendment 1 (2013). Therefore, no need to order amendment in
addition to this publication.
