3.3 Terms and definitions concerning a.c. semiconductor motor controllers and starters 3.3.1 semiconductor switching device switching device designed to make and/or break the current in an electric circuit by means of the controlled conductivity of a semiconductor NOTE This definition differs from IEC 60050-441 :1 984, 441 -1 4-03 since a semiconductor switching device is also designed for breaking the current. [IEC 60947-1 :2007, 2.2.3] 3.3.2 a.c. semiconductor motor controller semiconductor switching device that provides the starting function for an a.c. motor and an OFF-state NOTE 1 Because dangerous levels of leakage currents can exist in a semiconductor motor controller in the OFF- state, the load terminals should be considered as live parts at all times. NOTE 2 In a circuit where the current passes through zero (alternately or otherwise), the effect of “not making” the current following such a zero value is equivalent to breaking the current. 3.3.3 semiconductor motor controller (form 1) a.c. semiconductor motor controller, in which the starting function may comprise any starting method specified by the manufacturer, and that provides control functions which may include any combination of manoeuvring, controlled acceleration, running or controlled deceleration of an a.c. motor. A FULL-ON state may also be provided NOTE See Figure 1 and Table 1 . 3.3.4 semiconductor soft-start motor controller (form 2) special form of a.c. semiconductor motor controller, in which the starting function is limited to a voltage and/or current ramp which may include controlled acceleration, and where the additional control function is limited to providing FULL-ON NOTE See Figure 1 and Table 1 . 3.3.5 semiconductor direct on line (DOL) motor controller (form 3) special form of a.c. semiconductor motor controller, in which the starting function is limited to a full-voltage, unramped starting method only, and where the additional control function is limited to providing FULL-ON NOTE See Figure 1 and Table 1 .
