ICS 1 03, PAGEL Part ICS 1-103 STATIC SWITCHING CONTROL DEVICES The standards in this part apply to all other parts in the NEMA Standards Publications for Industrial Controls and Systems unless otherwise specified. The definitions contained in Part ICS 1-100 of this Standards Publication also apply to this part. ICS 1-103.01 GENERAL Static switching control is a method of switching electrical circuits without the use of contacts (the control primarily includes magnetic ampl devices). Static switching control performs functions similar to those of conventionally used relays but without switching contacts. Relays convert a single input to a coil into various outputs by means ofits moving armature closing or opening contacts. Static switching control elements convert a single or combination of inputs into ‘outputs by controling the circuit's impedance and or ‘modulation The logic terminology associated with static switching control is included herein to illustrate some operating logic functions. The same type of device may perform different control functions in the same equipment de- pending upon the required functions ‘NEMA Standard 1-17-1960, ICS 1-103.02 LOGIC FUNCTIONS, SYMBOLS. AND DEFINITIONS. Device logic functions and symbols are illustrated and defined in Table 1-103-1. ‘They are intended for use on electrical elementary and schematic diagrams to indicate the operating functions. ‘The symbols are a shorthand graphical representation and are not necessarily intended to represent the physica likeness ofthe device nor certain complete electrical connections. The symbols may be combined into various circuit adaptations as required by the particular application Input terminals on symbols and truth tables are des- ignated by the letters A, Band C, and the output by the letter X. ‘These markings are only for purposes of ref- erence, to explain the functions, and are not terminal of wire markings. Input terminals are shown on the left side of symbols and output terminals are shown on the right side of symbols ‘The number of the symbol inputs may vary because of different designs. They represent typical examples and are not all-inclusive With reference to MEMORY, RETENTIVE MEMORY and OFF RETURN MEMORY, the ‘memory input “on” terminals are the upper lines on the symbols. ‘The “off” input terminals (and output ter- minals, when required) are on the lower lines. For GATE symbols, the control input is the top left terminal. The power circuit terminals are the right and lower left terminals. (See GATE, NONISOLATED, and ISOLATED.) Return circuit terminals are not shown when directly connected to common or ground. When return circuits red to be shown, the control circuit shall be connected. as.a top vertical terminal, (For example, see GATES, AND SIGNAL CONVERTER WITH RETURN CIRCUITS.) ‘The term “input” or “output” denotes a signal which is useful or significant to elements of the system. The terms “on” and “off” denote the presence or ab- sence of an output, respectively. The “off” condition does not necessarily mean that there is no signal. NEMA Standard 7-12-1961 ICS 1-103.03 DEVICE IDENTIFICATION Markings on static units shall include the fol- lowing a) Catalog number. (b) Manufacturer's identification. (6) Functional marking (does not apply to multi- function units; ¢., AND, OR, NOT, ete.) as requited by the particular application ‘NEMA Standard [1-17-1960 ICS 1-103.04 VOLTAGE VARIATION ‘The control system shall operate on a supply voltage from minus 10 percent to plus 10 percent of the rated control system voltage. NEMA Standard 9.291960.
