Typical loads on a Class III system are the moderator main circulation pump motors and the pressurizing feed pump motors. Normally, Class III power is supplied from a Class IV source. 1, record 1, English, - Class%20III%20power

L'alimentation électrique de catégorie III est la source du courant alternatif des charges qui peuvent supporter l'interruption brève (entre une et trois minutes) nécessaire au démarrage des générateurs de relève, sans affecter la sécurité du personnel ou la sûreté de la centrale, mais qui sont essentielles pour l'arrêt sécuritaire de la centrale. Sont raccordées au circuit de catégorie III, des charges comme les moteurs des pompes principales de circulation du modérateur et les moteurs des pompes d'alimentation sous pression. Habituellement, l'alimentation de catégorie III provient d'une source de catégorie IV. 1, record 1, French, - alimentation%20%C3%A9lectrique%20de%20cat%C3%A9gorie%20III
