hi all,
I am looking for details on the EN 60204 standards regarding machine safety on the specific subject of MOTOR ISOLATION SWITCHES FOR MAINTENANCE.
That is, do I have to install an isolation switch within a few meters of each motor that is part of a large number of motors in an installation or can I simply install a lockable-type motor overload in my electrical cabinet?
I have searched on the net, but to no avail.
Thanxs
