THE THE BUIL BUILDE DERS RS AND USER USERS S of machine machine tools tools and Membership Membership in the JIC is open to interested and affec affected ted similar industrial equipment as well as the manufacturers companies, associations and organizations that desire to of electrical apparatus have long realized that safety of the participate in the fulfillment of these objectives. machine operator and maintenance of production are of Paralleling the old standards, two new ones have been cardinal importance in the design and purchase of such written, one for General Purpose Machine Tools and one equi equipm pment ent.. To fulf fulfil illl this this real realiza izati tion on in the area area of for Mass Production Equipment. These new standards are equipment electrification, this standard is the latest in a intended to be basic in nature; that is. they do not contain series which has been issued in the last 25 years. any requirements specific to anyone company. division or The first form of the machine tool electrical standards was plant.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT These standards are reproduced with the expressed permission of the Joint Industrial Council This portion is a reproduction of the JIC Electrical Standards for Mass Production Equip ment. EMP-1-1967. SCOPE AND APPLICATION OF STANDARDS These standards supersede the Chrysler Corporation Electrical Standards for Industrial Equipment dated june.1963. They shall apply to all electrical systems, furnished as a part of the machine tool or mass production industrial equipment, which operate from a supply voltage of 600 volts or less, commencing at the power supply terminals on the disconnecting means (See E1.2 for exceptions to this rule). The Sample Electrical Equipment Data Form attached hereto as Appendix F shall accompany all purchase inquiries for the particular equipment specified herein. See the Foreword Foreword for instructions for orderi ng specialized equipment such as furnaces, welders and mechan ical presses.

Appendix D-Device Designations The device designations given below are intended for use on diagram diagramss in conne connecti ction on with with the corres correspon ponding ding graphic graphical al symbols to indicate the function of the particular device. These device designations are based on the assignment of a standard letter or letters to the fundamental function that is performed by a component or device. Suitable prefix numbers ( I, 2, 3, 4, etc.) and suffix letters (A, B, C, D, etc.) may be added to the basic designation to differentiate between devices performing similar functions. The assignmen assignmentt of a designat designation ion to a device device on a specif specific ic equipment Is governed by the function of that device on that particular equipment and not by the type or nature of the device or its possible use for other functions in other equipment. The same type of device may perform different functions on different equipment or even on the same equipment and, consequently, may be identified by different designations.
