7.8.7.1 Overview

The PtMotorDutyAttributesType provides the rated operating mode of a motor and is formally defined in Table 73. It is a description of the load(s) to which the motor is subjected. The duty types are defined in the international standard IEC 60034-1.

In addition to the duty type, information such as the switching cycles per hour and the duty cycle is required to assess the suitability of a machine for an application.

Various PtMotorRatedAttributes variables, like MotorPowerRated, depend on the PtMotorDutyAttributes.
