Smoke Damper 230v actuators

So, regarding 230v actuators, would you terminate it in a switched fused spur or an unswitched fused spur?

  • Manufacturers don't define this they just stated a 230v supply.  

    So the question is switched fused or unswitched fused on the Damper actuator?  Key pieces of kit from a fire integrity point of view, but I understand the importance of maintenance and ease of isolation.

    Interesting ... I would request the information per BS EN IEC 60204-1 Clause 7.2.2, which says:

    The supplier of the electrical equipment shall state in the installation documents the data necessary for conductor dimensioning (including the maximum cross-sectional area of the supply conductor that can be connected to the terminals of the electrical equipment) and for selecting the overcurrent protective device (see 7.2.10 and 17).

    Having said that ... are you the designer of the "system" ... i.e. the larger "machinery" ... if so, then your risk assessments will tell you what is necessary?

    There are specific legislative requirements for the supply of machinery and equipment for use at work or in a workplace.
