Application documentation comprises the entire documentation used to
inform the user of the product about the use and safety-relevant features for
configuring, integrating, installing, mounting, commissioning, operating,

Application Description, etc.
A component is a combination of elements with a specified function, which
are part of a piece of equipment, device or system. Components of the
electric drive and control system are, for example, supply units, drive
controllers, mains choke, mains filter, motors, cables, etc.
A control system comprises several interconnected control components
placed on the market as a single functional unit.
A device is a finished product with a defined function, intended for users and
placed on the market as an individual piece of merchandise.
Electrical equipment encompasses all devices used to generate, convert,
transmit, distribute or apply electrical energy, such as electric motors,
transformers, switching devices, cables, lines, power-consuming devices,
circuit board assemblies, plug-in units, control cabinets, etc.
An electric drive system comprises all components from mains supply to
motor shaft; this includes, for example, electric motor(s), motor encoder(s),
supply units and drive controllers, as well as auxiliary and additional
components, such as mains filter, mains choke and the corresponding lines
and cables.
An installation consists of several devices or systems interconnected for a
defined purpose and on a defined site which, however, are not intended to be
placed on the market as a single functional unit.
A machine is the entirety of interconnected parts or units at least one of
which is movable. Thus, a machine consists of the appropriate machine drive
elements, as well as control and power circuits, which have been assembled
for a specific application. A machine is, for example, intended for processing,
treatment, movement or packaging of a material. The term "machine" also
covers a combination of machines which are arranged and controlled in such
a way that they function as a unified whole.
The manufacturer is an individual or legal entity bearing responsibility for the
design and manufacture of a product which is placed on the market in the
individual's or legal entity's name. The manufacturer can use finished
products, finished parts or finished elements, or contract out work to
subcontractors. However, the manufacturer must always have overall control
and possess the required authority to take responsibility for the product.
Examples of a product: Device, component, part, system, software, firmware,
among other things.
A project planning manual is part of the application documentation used to
support the sizing and planning of systems, machines or installations.
In terms of this application documentation, qualified persons are those
persons who are familiar with the installation, mounting, commissioning and
operation of the components of the electric drive and control system, as well
as with the hazards this implies, and who possess the qualifications their
