(3) ‘energy efficiency’ of a motor means the ratio of its mechanical
output power to the electrical active input power;

(4) ‘pole’ means a north or a south pole produced by the rotating


magnetic field of the motor, whose total number of poles
determines its base speed;

(5) ‘continuous duty operation’ means capable of continuous operation


at rated power with a temperature rise within the specified insu­
lation temperature class, specified as specific duty types S1, S3
>=80 % or S6 >=80 % as defined in standards;

(6) ‘phase’ means the type of configuration of the mains;

(7) ‘mains’ or ‘electric mains’ means the electricity supply from the
grid;

(8) ‘motor with mechanical commutators’ means a motor in which a


mechanical device reverses the direction of the current;

(9) ‘cordless or battery operated equipment’ means an appliance


deriving its energy from batteries enabling the appliance to
perform its intended function without a supply connection;

(10) ‘hand-held equipment’ means a portable appliance intended to be


held in the hand during normal use;

(11) ‘hand-guided equipment’ means a non-road mobile appliance that


is moved and guided by the user during normal use;

(12) ‘totally enclosed non-ventilated (TENV) motor’ means a motor


designed and specified to operate without a fan, and which
dissipates heat predominantly through natural ventilation or
radiation on the totally enclosed motor surface;

(13) ‘regenerative drive’ means a VSD that is able to regenerate energy


from the load to the mains, i.e. that induces a 180° +/- 20° phase
shift of the input current to the input voltage when the load motor
is braking;

(14) ‘drive with sinusoidal input current’ means a VSD with a sinu­
soidal waveform of the input current, characterised by a Total
Harmonic Content below 10 %;

(15) ‘brake motor’ means a motor equipped with an electromechanical


brake unit operating directly on the motor shaft without couplings;

(16) ‘Ex eb increased safety motor’ means a motor intended for use in
explosive atmospheres and certified ‘Ex eb’, as defined in stan­
dards;

(17) ‘other explosion-protected motor’ means a motor intended for use


in explosive atmospheres and certified ‘Ex ec’, ‘Ex tb’, ‘Ex tc’,
‘Ex db’, or ‘Ex dc’ as defined in standards;
