Whereas the Parliament of India has set out to provide a practical regime of right to
information for citizens to secure access to information under the control of public authorities,
in order to promote transparency and accountability in the working of every public authority,
and whereas the attached publication of the Bureau of Indian Standards is of particular interest
to the public, particularly disadvantaged communities and those engaged in the pursuit of
education and knowledge, the attached public safety standard is made available to promote the
timely dissemination of this information in an accurate manner to the public.

METHODSOFMEASURINGTEMPERATURE-RISE
OFELE~TRI~ALBQUIPMI~NT
0. FOREWORD
0.1 This Indian Standard was adopted~ by the Indian
Standards
Institution on 18 December 1980, after the draft finalized by the
Electrotechnical Standards Sectional Committee had been approved by
the Electrotechnical Division Council.
0.2 The safe and reliable operation of an electrical
equipment is
achieved
by ensuring
amongst other things that under normal
conditions of operation, the steady state temperature of the equipment is
maintained within limits for which the electrical insulation is designed.
This factor ultimately decides the safe current (rated current) which can
pass through the equipment without the temperature of the insulation
exceeding the safe limits.
0.3 Indian Standards on the various electrical equipment specify the
permissible limits of temperature-rise of the parts of equipment and the
precise method to ensure that the temperature is within the safe limits.
This standard has been brought out with a view to provide detailed
guidelines on the methodology to be adopted while carrying out the
temperature-rise test. This would also avoid the necessity of repeating
the details of test method in individual standards.
0.4 While this standard covers all the three recognized methods, the
choice of a particular method depends on several factors, individual
specifications hence would stipulate the most appropriate method(s) for
the equipment under test as well as guidelines on the application of the
limits of temperature-rise specified for the same.
0.5 While employing the methods described in this specification, it is
emphasized that the precautions mentioned therein shall be adhered to in
view of the accuracy desired as well as the safety of the measuring device.
Additional precaution shall have to be observed as indicated in individual specifications, depending on the specific nature of the equipment.
0.6 It is not intended to imply that measurements by more than one
method shall he required for a single check of the temperature and the
3

results obtained by one method are to be used as a check against those
by another. However, if the.purchaser wishes to have readings taken by
more than one method, it shall be noted that the methods are reliable
and accurate in the order given below:
a) Embedded

to place the detectors at the various points at which the highest
temperatures are likely to occur in such a manner that they are effectively
protected from contact with the cooling medium.
2.3.2 The exact location of the detectors and their number shall be as
dictated by the size and specific details of the e uipment or part under
measurement.
Specific guidelines on these sh& be as specified in the
relevant standards.
