NEMA standard helps with motor, generator selection

摘要

Practical information on ac motors, dc motors, and generators, about performance, safety, testing, construction, and manufacturing is available in ANSI/NEMA MG 1-2011. The standards document is designed to assist users in the proper selection and application of motors and generators, according to the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA). The NEMA Motor and Generator Section said it developed the document, published earlier this year, based on sound engineering principles, research, and records of test and field experience, along with information from manufacturers, users, inspection authorities, and others having specialized experience.
