IS 325: 1996

Indian Standard

THREE-PHASE INDUCTION MOTORS

SPECIFICATION
( Fifth Revision )
1 SCOPE
1.1 This standard covers three-phase induction motors for voltage up to and including 11 000 V and
having windings with Class A to Class H insulation (see IS 1271 : 1985). The motors covered by this
standard are assigned anyone of the ratings given 3.4 General Purpose Motors in 9.3.
1.2 Motors for use on systems employing non-preferred voltage and frequency (see 8) shall be
considered as complying with this standard provided that these comply in all respects. The
voltage and frequency for which they arc designed shall be indicated on the rating plate of the
motor.
2 REFERENCE STANDARDS
2.1 The standards given in Annex A arc necessary adjuncts to this standard.
