IEEE 499-1974

These recommendations apply to all electric drives a n d include motors, control, and control wiring associated with machinery or equipment commonly used in the manufacturing areas of cement plants. They are intended as a guide and may be supplemented where special needs exist. They are not intended to apply to power distribution circuits. These recommendations shall apply to electrical equipment having a supply voltage of 13 800 V or less. Voltage higher than this are not being covered at this time.

The purpose of these recommendations is to define and recommend specifications for electric drives and related electrical equipment for installation in the cement industry in order to promote: (1) safety to personnel and equipment (2) maximum reliability with minimum loss of production (3) reduced maintenance and increased life of equipment (4) clarification of needs and conditions to reduce special engineering and chance of error in specification (5) over-all economy
