1.0 Indian Standard IS I26 I 5:2004 has been revised as IS 12615:2011. In the revision, mainly
the following modifications have been made:
a) Nominal efficiency of motors has been categorize~ now i_n three p~rt~ IEl ,IE2 & IE3
applicable to 2, 4 & 6 Pole Motors. Duty type S3 (mterm1ttent periodic duty) has been
added.
b) The efficiency levels of the Motors covered in the standard are upgraded as per the
following details:
i) The efficiency performance values of motors under the scope shall be IE3 only
and shall be effective from 31Januarv2014 (refer foreword of IS 12615:2011 ).
However, when these motors are used with variable frequency drives, they shall
conform to IE2 values of efficiency.
ii) The efficiency performance values of motors of Category IE I and IE2 may be
treated as withdrawn for BIS certification purpose except mentioned at I .Ob)i)
above.
2.0 The concurrent running of old & new standard is allowed for one year from date of
establishment of standard (ref note Sc G &CS/Misc dated 30110/2013 ). As the
implementation of revised standard is already delayed, the concurrent running is proposed
to be considered upto 31 May 2014.
3.0 The revised standard and draft revised STI were circulated to all ROs/BOs vide note dated
24/09/2013 for comments. A note to ETD was also sent for comments on draft ST I. Only
CBTO has replied vide note dated 17/10/2013, however_, no comments are offered for
revised standard & STI. ETD has also examined draft STI and reported to be found in order.
4.0 In order to implement the revised standard and STI mentioned above, the following
guidelines shall be adopted:
4.1 For, Existing Licensees:
a) ·- RO/BOs · are required to inform the licensees under their jurisdiction about the
implementation of revised standard and STI immediately.
· .b) ·declaration shall be obtained for ratings/performance parameters as per revised
standard. The acceptance of revised STI shall also be obtained.
After confirmation from firm that revised standard is implemented a surveillance visit
may b: arranged_for inspecti?n before ~he date of implementation. Sample(s) may be
tested m. factory for all possible tests m one day and simultaneously one sample of
·?ther ratmg may be drawn. for_independent tes_ting. Additional testing/mfg facilities, if
added~. may also be verified. The case shall be reviewed for performance and
accqrdmgly the necessary endotsement to licence document shall be issued.
The testing charges of inde1:iendent testing shall be borne by the licensee
e) "· ::fh~ case shall b~ review~d on•receipt of independent test report of factory sample and
·" -~. action shall be taken as per OMPC in case of failure.
4.2 For applications:
4.2.1 a) Grant of licence/inclusion under simplified procedure:
i) The applications for grant of licence/inclusion shall be processed as per old
version, if requested by the applicant before 15 April 2014. However, an
undertaking shall be obtained from the firm that action for changeover to revised
standard to be completed by due date of implementation otherwise action as per
OMPC may be taken by BIS.
ii) No application shall be accepted as per old version of standard to process for
GOL/inclusion under simplified procedure after 15 April 2014.
b) Grant of licence/inclusion under normal procedure:
i) The applications for grant of licence/inclusion already received under normal
procedure and samples are drawn/under testing or test reports are already
received shall be processed as per old version latest by 30 Apr 2014 . However,
an undertaking shall be obtained from the firm that action for changeover to
revised standard shall be completed by due date of implementation of revised
standard otherwise action as per OMPC may be taken by BIS.
ii) In case sample is under testing and it is not possible to consider GOL/inclusion
by 30 Apr 2014, application may be processed as per revised standard only based
on fresh declaration by applicant and testing of sample with improved efficiency
performance values.
iii) In case in-house testing facilities are available with the firm, BO may consider
factory testing of sample (s). Permission of DDGR shall be obtained m such
cases.
r iv) No further application for GOL/inclusion shall be accepted under normal
}.) procedure as per old standard with immediate effect.
