IEEE and IEC
TMC designs, manufactures and test its machines according to all international standards. There are two primary standards when it come to electricity:
- ANSI/IEEE countries - typically North and Central America.
- IEC countries - Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.
TMC is able to design and develop products according to both international standards and can customize products according to the specific needs of each local market in terms of solutions and accessories.
IEC and ANSI/IEEE establish performance requirements for protection against fire and electric shock, i.e. protection of people and property. Both of the following documents cover the installation, use, and maintenance of wiring systems for premises and equipment.
ANSI/IEEE is a set of specific rules for the design, installation, and uniform application of electrical systems based on principles and practices in North America.
The IEEE C57.12.01 standard sets the electrical and mechanical requirements of distribution and power transformers or ventilated, non-ventilated, and dry-sealed autotransformers (single-phase and polyphase, with voltages of 601V or higher in the winding with the maximum voltage).
IEC is a collection of documents that define the key principles, practices and performance needs of the European concept of cabling and distribution systems.
IEC 60076-11:2018 applies to dry-type power transformers with maximum voltages for equipment up to and including 72.5kV (52kV) and at least one winding operating at a voltage greater than 1.1kV.
In accordance also offers solutions and certifications for specific application standards following the above-mentioned regulations, such as:
- Canada: CSA
- United States of America: UL
- Marine/offshore industry: ABS, GL, DNV, BV, RINA, CCS, NK
- Railways industry: IEC, EN, DIN, ISO through TÜV
- Russia: EAC/GOST
