thermal-cut-out: device which during abnormal operation limits the temperature of the controlled part by automatically opening the circuit, or by reducing the current, and is constructed so that its setting cannot be altered by the user. There are three key provisions here. First, the thermal cut-out is a heat-sensing element, second, it can only be…
tool: screwdriver, coin or any other object that may be used to operate a screw or similar fixing means. I’d like to explain the intent of the standard, which defines a separate tool, in order to distinguish between operations that use a tool and those that do not. For example, if a tool is used…
temperature limiter: temperature-sensing device, the operating temperature of which may be either fixed or adjustable and which during normal operation operates by opening or closing a circuit when the temperature of the controlled part reaches a pre-determined value.Note 1 to entry: A temperature limiter does not make the reverse operation during the normal duty cycle…
