    = area, locality, location, place, locus [loci, -pl.], site, spot, slot.
    Ex. The area in which standards for bibliographic description have had the most impact is in catalogues and catalogue record data bases.
    Ex. To overcome these problems users must think of all the various names that might have been applied, and must understand something of the geography and administration of the locality concerned.
    Ex. Having been alerted to the existence of a document, the user needs information concerning the actual location of the document, in order that the document may be read.
    Ex. Period and place can also be added to any heading, though there are restrictions on the latter: in certain subjects place takes preference over subject.
    Ex. The locus of government policy making has been shifted to the Ministry of Research and Technology.
    Ex. Here, families from many different communities were up-rooted and resettled on greenfield sites, many miles away from relatives and friends.
    Ex. There was also a spot from which, if you struck the floor with a hard rap of your heel, you could almost count the reverberations as the sound bounced from floor to ceiling to walls to floor.
    Ex. These frames are of different types and have slots also of different types, which can be filled by other frames.

  • 16 присоединение (в электроэнергетике)

    1. bay

     

    присоединение (в электроэнергетике)
    Совокупность коммутационных аппаратов, обеспечивающих соединение линии электропередачи, трансформатора или другого оборудования со сборными шинами.
    Примечание. Коммутационные аппараты, принадлежащие одному присоединению, характеризуются общностью управления в нормальных, аварийных и ремонтных режимах, включая управление, защиту и оперативные блокировки. Уровень присоединения в системе автоматизации подстанции представляет собой уровень управления, находящийся ниже общего станционного уровня.
    [ ГОСТ Р 54325-2011 (IEC/TS 61850-2:2003)]

    присоединение
    Электрическая цепь (оборудование и шины) одного назначения, наименования и напряжения, присоединенная к шинам РУ, генератора, щита, сборки и находящаяся в пределах электростанции, подстанции и т.п. Электрические цепи разного напряжения одного силового трансформатора (независимо от числа обмоток), одного двухскоростного электродвигателя считаются одним присоединением. В схемах многоугольников, полуторных и т.п. схемах к присоединению линии, трансформатора относятся все коммутационные аппараты и шины, посредством которых эта линия или трансформатор присоединены к РУ
    [ПОТ Р М-016-2001 РД 153-34.0-03.150-00]

    EN

    bay
    a substation consists of closely connected sub parts with some common functionality. Examples are the switchgear between an incoming or outgoing line, and the busbar, the bus coupler with its circuit breaker and related isolators and earthing switches, the transformer with its related switchgear between the two busbars representing the two voltage levels. The bay concept may be applied to 1½ breaker and ring bus substation arrangements by grouping the primary circuit breakers and associated equipment into a virtual bay. These bays comprise a power system subset to be protected, for example a transformer or a line end, and the control of its switchgear that has some common restrictions such as mutual interlocking or well-defined operation sequences. The identification of such subparts is important for maintenance purposes (what parts may be switched off at the same time with minimum impact on the rest of the substation) or for extension plans (what has to be added if a new line is to be linked in). These subparts are called ‘bays’ and may be managed by devices with the generic name ’bay controller’ and have protection systems called ‘bay protection’.

    The concept of a bay is not commonly used in North America. The bay level represents an additional control level below the overall station level

    REACH (Registration, Evaluation and Authorisation of Chemicals) regulation EC/1907/2006
    In Europe, the purpose of the REACH regulation EC/1907/2006, which came into force on 1 June 2007, is to give the public better protection against chemicals that are available on the market and to make good the lack of knowledge about these chemicals.
    Initially this regulation made manufacturers and importers of chemicals responsible for providing information on the safety of these substances for health and the environment and the uses made of them: this is the registration phase, which is the basis of the REACH system.
    At the same time the function of the REACH regulation is to set up a framework for controlling the risks associated with the use of dangerous substances.
    Certain substances may therefore be subject to usage restrictions or may even be prohibited.
    Manufacturers and importers of chemicals must obtain authorisation to use substances classified in the “substance of very high concern” category.
    A substance could be classified in this category if there is a risk for human health and/or the environment.
    The aim of this Authorisation is to assure that the risks from substances of very high concern are properly controlled and that these substances are progressively replaced by suitable alternative substances    .
    [Legrand]

    Регламент ЕС № 1907/2006, касающийся правил регистрации, оценки, санкционирования и ограничения химических веществ (REACH)
    Целью введения европейского регламента ЕС № 1907/2006 (REACH), вступившего в силу 1 июня 2007 года, является обеспечение более высокого уровня безопасности потребителей при использовании имеющихся на рынке химических веществ и предоставление отсутствовавшей ранее информации по этим химическим веществам.
    В первую очередь данная норма обязала изготовителей и импортеров предоставлять информацию о безопасности химических веществ и их соединений, в отношении здоровья людей и окружающей среды. Информация предоставляется на этапе регистрации, которая лежит в основе системы REACH.
    В то же время задача регламента REACH заключается в создании структуры для управления рисками, связанными с использованием опасных веществ.
    В отношении некоторых веществ могут быть введены определенные ограничения использования. Какие-то вещества могут быть запрещены.
    Изготовители и импортеры должны получать разрешение на использование веществ, отнесенных к категории «особо опасные вещества».
    К данной категории относят вещества, представляющие опасность для здоровья человека и/или окружающей среды.
    Целью такого санкционирования является обеспечение надлежащего контроля за веществами, относящихся к категории «особо опасные» и постепенная замена этих веществ альтернативными.
