This part of IEC 60034 specifies the factory acceptance vibration test procedures and vibration limits for certain electrical machines under specified conditions, when uncoupled
from any load or prime mover.
It is applicable to DC and three-phase AC machines, with shaft heights 56 mm and higher and
a rated output up to 50 MW, at operational speeds from 120 min–1 up to and including
15 000 min–1.
This document is not applicable to machines mounted in situ (on site), three-phase commutator motors, single-phase machines, three-phase machines operated on single-phase
systems, vertical waterpower generators, turbine generators greater than 20 MW and machines with magnetic bearings or series-wound machines.
