- have a rated voltage up to 1 000 V;

- are intended for direct-on-line or star-delta starting;

- are rated on the basis of duty type S1;

- are constructed to any degree of protection and explosion protection. The main changes with respect to the previous edition are as follows:

- new design letter E for extended efficiency motors, explanation of all design letters, and description of new designs NE, NEY, HE, and HEY;

- addition of a reference to IEC 60079-7;

- addition of a formula to calculate locked rotor current from apparent power.
