CSA C22.2 No. 60691:19

Thermal-links — Requirements and application guide / Protecteurs thermiques — Exigences et guide d'application

This International Standard is applicable to thermal-links intended for incorporation in
electrical appliances, electronic equipment and component parts thereof, normally intended
for use indoors, in order to protect them against excessive temperatures under abnormal
conditions.
NOTE 1 The equipment is not designed to generate heat.
NOTE 2 The effectiveness of the protection against excessive temperatures logically depends upon the position
and method of mounting of the thermal-link, as well as upon the current which it is carrying.
This Standard is applicable to thermal-links with a rated voltage not exceeding 600 V ac or dc and
unlimited current.
This standard may be applicable to thermal-links in their simplest forms (e.g. melting strips or
wires), provided that molten materials expelled during function cannot adversely interfere with
the safe use of the equipment, especially in the case of hand-held or portable equipment,
irrespective of its position.
Annex H of this standard is applicable to thermal-link packaged assemblies where the
thermal-link(s) has already been approved to this standard but packaged in a metallic or nonmetallic
housing and provided with terminals/wiring leads.
This standard is applicable to thermal-links with a rated voltage not exceeding 690 V a.c. or
d.c. and a rated current not exceeding 63 A.
The objectives of this standard are:
a) to establish uniform requirements for thermal-links,
b) to define methods of test,
c) to provide useful information for the application of thermal-links in equipment.
This standard is not applicable to thermal-links used under extreme conditions such as
corrosive or explosive atmospheres.
This standard is not applicable to thermal-links to be used in circuits on a.c. with a frequency
lower than 45 Hz or higher than 62 Hz.
This Standard covers the above-noted products that are intended to be installed or used in accordance
with CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part I.

La présente Norme internationale est applicable aux protecteurs thermiques destinés à être
incorporés dans les appareils électriques, le matériel électronique et ses composants,
normalement utilisés à l'intérieur d'un local, afin de les protéger contre les températures
excessives lors de conditions anormales.
NOTE 1 Le matériel n’est pas prévu pour produire de la chaleur.
NOTE 2 L'efficacité de la protection contre les températures excessives dépend logiquement de la position et du
mode de montage du protecteur thermique ainsi que du courant qui le traverse.
Cette norme est applicable aux protecteurs thermiques dont la tension nominale ne dépasse pas 600 V
c.a. ou c.c. quel que soit le courant.
La présente Norme peut s'appliquer aux protecteurs thermiques dans leurs formes les plus
simples (par exemple les lames ou les fils de fusion), pourvu que le matériau fondu, expulsé
pendant le fonctionnement, ne soit pas préjudiciable à la sécurité du matériel,
particulièrement dans le cas du matériel tenu à la main, ou mobile indépendamment de sa
position.
L'Annexe H de la présente Norme s'applique aux ensembles conditionnés de protecteurs
thermiques déjà conformes à la présente Norme mais conditionnés dans un boîtier métallique
ou non métallique et munis de bornes/conducteurs à fils.
La présente Norme s’applique aux protecteurs thermiques dont la tension assignée n'excède
pas 690 V en courant alternatif ou en courant continu, et dont le courant assigné n'excède
pas 63 A.
Les objectifs de la présente Norme sont les suivants:
a) établir des exigences uniformes pour les protecteurs thermiques,
b) définir des méthodes d'essai,
c) fournir des renseignements utiles pour l'utilisation des protecteurs thermiques dans les
matériels.
La présente Norme n'est pas applicable aux protecteurs thermiques utilisés dans des
conditions extrêmes, telles que des atmosphères corrosives ou explosives.
La présente Norme n'est pas applicable aux protecteurs thermiques destinés à être utilisés
dans des circuits en courant alternatif avec une fréquence inférieure à 45 Hz ou supérieure à
62 Hz.

Cette norme porte sur les produits susmentionnés destiné à être installés ou utilisés conformément à
CSA C22.1, Code canadien de l’électricité, Première partie.
