TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT

Transportation and storage of electrical equipment

From the place of manufacture to electrical installations, electrical equipment is transported in transport packaging made taking into account the characteristics of the product, method of transportation and storage in order to protect it en route from mechanical damage and exposure to climatic factors (direct exposure to precipitation, solar radiation and dust). The type of transport (except for railway, which can transport any products) is specifically specified when ordering. Transportation conditions must comply with the requirements of GOST 15150-69 (table).
Transport packaging can also be used for storing products in customer warehouses. In this case, the total period of transportation and storage should not exceed two years under coolant storage conditions, three years under F conditions, and five years under L and S conditions.
Placement of electrical equipment at a permanent storage location (in conditions that meet the requirements of the RD for its supply) must be carried out no later than 5 days from the moment of arrival at the base or mine. In storage conditions according to groups F (under a canopy) and OZh (in open areas), products are stored in transport packaging, and in conditions according to groups L (heated warehouses) and C (unheated warehouses) - they can also be stored in inner packaging (cardboard boxes , hermetic covers); in this case, products of large size and mass should not be removed from the bottom panel of the box and other supporting base of the outer packaging. Specific storage conditions indicating additional groups (OZh4, Zh2, etc.) are indicated in the technical specifications (TS) for delivery.

Equipment storage conditions

The electric machine is delivered from the manufacturer to the customer (installation site), and from that moment its operation begins. As a rule, before installation, the electrical machine or the device in which it operates is stored for a certain period of time in a non-operating state in its transport packaging. It is allowed to use transport packaging in customer warehouses. According to the conditions for storing electrical machines in warehouses, four groups of conditions are distinguished:

light - L,

average - C,

hard - F

especially tough - coolant.

In turn, the Zh storage group has three subgroups - Zh1, Zh2, ZhZ, which differ in environmental conditions, and the coolant storage group has four subgroups. Storage conditions are given in table. 6.1.

Table 6.1. Storage conditions for electrical machines

Continuation of the table. 6.1

Group	Storage	Storage conditions

1. The main and additional groups are arranged in order of increasing severity of storage conditions from L to OZh1

2. Type I atmosphere corresponds to rural, forest or mountainous areas,

II - industrial areas,

III - coastal area.

Electrical equipment is delivered to the customer in packaging that protects it from environmental influences during transportation and storage. Storage conditions for electrical equipment are given in Appendix 1.

There are four main groups of storage warehouses. The first consists of warehouses of group L (light conditions), in which comfortable conditions are provided

storage, in the warehouses of the second group good storage conditions are provided (group C), in the warehouses of the third and fourth groups there are quite strict (group Zh) and especially stringent (group OZh) conditions for storing equipment. In this case, group L has three storage subgroups (1, 1.1 and 1.2), group Zh - three (Zh1, Zh2 and Zh3), group OZH - four (OZH1, OZH2, OZH3 and OZH4).

The manufacturer's instructions indicate the conditions and maximum storage period for equipment under which its functionality is not impaired. Before accepting for storage, you should make sure that the packaging is intact (preservation) and, if necessary, restore it by checking its completeness. Violation of storage conditions can lead to damage to individual equipment elements associated with corrosion of metal parts, oxidation of contact surfaces, etc.

Electric cars. The surfaces of products made of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, as well as threaded and pin holes, are subject to conservation. Plastic and liquid lubricants, easily removable paint coatings, waxed papers, synthetic films, etc. can be used.

10.1. Storage conditions for products, determined by their location, macroclimatic region and type of atmosphere, and characterized by a combination of climatic factors affecting packaged and (or) canned products during storage, are given in Table. 13.

10.2. Conditions for transporting products, other than those specified in paragraphs. 10.3-10.5, are the same as storage conditions in open areas: for macroclimatic regions with a temperate and cold climate on land - according to storage conditions 8* for all macroclimatic regions on land, for a macroclimatic region with a tropical climate and for sea transport - 9 **. In this case, if the products are intended for transportation on open decks, the impact of sea waves must be taken into account.

4. For specific types or groups of products, the types of influencing climatic factors influencing the climatic design according to GOST and their nominal values ​​are established depending on the operating conditions of the products in the relevant technical specifications, standards and technical conditions. If there are documents that establish for product groups a connection between the values ​​of factors with the specified climatic modifications in accordance with GOST 15150-69, you should be guided by the instructions of these documents
5. It is allowed to operate products in macroclimatic areas other than those for which the products are intended, if climatic factors during operation do not exceed the limits of the nominal values ​​​​established for these products. For example, products of the UHL4 climatic version can be operated in UHL2 conditions during the dry summer period.
6. It is allowed to operate products in conditions where the values ​​of climatic factors go beyond the established nominal values, if deviations in service life are acceptable. In this case, the permissibility of operation, the values ​​of climatic factors for designs, and permissible deviations in service life are agreed upon with the product supplier.
7. In accordance with economic and technical feasibility, it is recommended to manufacture products suitable for use in several regions established by this standard, that is, the climatic category according to GOST 15150-69 should cover several climatic regions.
8. Products can also be designed for use in several macroclimatic regions; in these cases, combinations of various operating or storage conditions with periods of stay in these conditions are established in standards or technical specifications for products; climatic modifications (climatic modification category) must be indicated in the accompanying documents for the product.
9. The macroclimatic region with a temperate climate UHL (climate category UHL) includes areas where the average annual absolute maximum air temperature is equal to or below plus 40°C, and the average annual absolute minimum air temperature is equal to or above minus 45°C.
10. D descends from the macroclimatic region with a temperate climate to identify a macroclimatic subregion with a warm temperate subtype of macroclimate, for which the average of the annual absolute minimum air temperatures is equal to or higher than minus 25 ° C.
11. The macroclimatic region with a cold climate HL (climatic category HL) includes areas in which the average annual absolute minimum air temperature is below minus 45°C. The cold climate region UHL (climate category UHL) is indicated on the map.
