前言:这是CSA E60730-2-3《家用和类似用途的自动电气控制-第2-3部分:管状荧光灯镇流器用热保护器的特殊要求》的第二版，采用了相同名称的IEC（国际电工委员会）标准60730-2-3（第二版，2006-10），但有加拿大的偏差。它取代了1994年出版的前一版CAN/CSA-E730-2-3（采用IEC 730-2-3:1990）。本标准拟与CAN/CSA-E60730-1:02《家用和类似用途的自动电气控制装置第1部分:一般要求》（采用IEC 60730-1:1999，但有加拿大偏差）结合使用；以及CAN/CSA-E60730-1:02的修正案1:2007（采用了IEC修正案1:2003，带有加拿大偏差）。本标准的制定符合加拿大标准委员会对加拿大国家标准的要求。 CSA集团已将其作为加拿大国家标准发布。范围:1.1本部分IEC 60730适用于管状荧光灯镇流器热保护器的评估。本标准适用于使用NTC或PTC热敏电阻的热保护器，其附加要求见附录J。有关镇流器和热保护器组合测试的要求见IEC 61347-1.1.1。本标准适用于固有安全性、工作值、工作时间、，以及与设备安全相关的操作顺序，以及用于保护管形灯镇流器不过热的热保护器的测试。本标准适用于IEC 61347-2-8范围内镇流器的热保护器。本标准涵盖的热保护器可能适用于其他放电灯的镇流器，如IEC 61347范围内的镇流器- 2-9.在本标准中，“保护器”一词是指“自复位热镇流器保护器”。1.1.2本标准不适用于用于保护镇流器的其他方法。1.1.3本标准不适用于打开电路的手动装置。1.2本标准适用于与镇流器一起使用的保护器，该镇流器在50 Hz或60 Hz下的交流电源电压高达690 V。1.3如果响应值取决于在设备中安装控件的方法，则本标准不考虑控件自动动作的响应值。如果响应值对保护用户或周围环境具有重要意义，则适用适当家用设备标准中定义的值或制造商确定的值。

Preface:This is the second edition of CSA E60730-2-3,Automatic electrical controls for household and similar use — Part 2-3: Particular requirements for thermal protectors for ballasts for tubular fluorescent lamps, which is an adoption, with Canadian deviations, of the identically titled IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) Standard 60730-2-3 (second edition, 2006-10). It supersedes the previous edition published in 1994 as CAN/CSA-E730-2-3 (adopted IEC 730-2-3:1990).This Standard is intended to be used in conjunction with CAN/CSA-E60730-1:02,Automatic electrical controls for household and similar use — Part 1: General requirements(adopted IEC 60730-1:1999, with Canadian deviations); and Amendment 1:2007 to CAN/CSA-E60730-1:02 (adopted IEC Amendment 1:2003, with Canadian deviations).This Standard has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group.Scope:1.1This part of IEC 60730 applies to the evaluation of thermal protectors for ballasts for tubular fluorescent lamps.This standard applies to thermal protectors using NTC or PTC thermistors, additional requirements for which are contained in Annex J.Requirements concerning the testing of the combination of ballasts and thermal protectors are given in IEC 61347-1.1.1.1This 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.Thermal protectors covered by this standard may be suitable for ballasts for other discharge lamps such as ballasts under the scope of IEC 61347-2-9.Throughout this standard, the word "protector" means "self-resetting thermal ballast protector".1.1.2This standard is not applicable to other means used to protect ballasts.1.1.3This standard does not apply to a manual device for opening the circuit.1.2This standard applies to protectors for use with ballasts for use on a.c. supplies up to 690 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz.1.3This 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 applies.
