1 Scope

This Part of GB/T 38943 specifies general safety requirements for the electrical equipment and

its components incorporated into earth-moving machines (EMMs) as defined in ISO 6165, and

addresses the safety of operators, technicians, service/maintenance personnel and bystanders.

2 Normative References

The following documents are essential to the application of this Document. For the dated

documents, only the versions with the dates indicated are applicable to this Document; for the

undated documents, only the latest version (including all the amendments) is applicable to this

Document.

3 Terms, Definitions and Abbreviated Terms

For the purposes of this document, the terms, definitions and abbreviated terms given in ISO

12100 and the following apply.

4 General Requirements

If factory-built, type-tested HV switchgear is employed it shall comply with applicable

standards (e.g., IEC 62271-1, IEC 62271-200, and IEC 62271-201).

The electrical equipment of the EMM shall be protected against or be tolerant of the ingress of

harmful solids and liquids, including dust, acids, corrosive gases, and salts, that might be

present in the operating environment.

5 Protection against Electric Shock Hazards

Live parts shall be contained within enclosures that comply with the relevant requirements of

Clause 4, Clause 12 and Clause 14, and which provide protection against direct contact of at

least IP2X or IPXXB.

6 Protection against Electrical Fire Hazards

IEC 60695-1-20, IEC 60695-1-21, and IEC 60695-1-30 provide guidance regarding

flammability and ignitability of nonmetallic parts and materials. Component standards usually

address these concerns, and they generally take precedence over the generic IEC 60695

standards.

7 Protection against Thermal Hazards

Protection against thermal hazards should be according to ISO 20474-1.

8 Protection against Mechanical Hazards

Protection against mechanical hazards should be according to GB/T 25607 and ISO 20474-1.

9 Protection against Abnormal Operation Hazards

Appropriate protection shall be provided on liquid-filled electrical equipment (e.g. transformers,

reactors, and switchgear) to account for the effects of abnormal temperature, overpressure or

leakage.
