3.4.2 CONTROL, OPERATING — A device or assembly of devices, the operation of which starts or regulates the end product during normal operation. For example, a thermostat, the failure of which a thermal cutout/limiter or another layer of protection would mitigate the risk of electric shock, is considered an operating control and in this example could also be called a “regulating contror. Operating controls can also include other controlling devices such as switches, contactors, relays and similar devices. Appendix B specifies control functions that are not considered to result in a risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons.
3.4.3 CONTROL, PROTECTIVE — A device or assembly of devices, the operation of which is intended to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons during normal and reasonably anticipated abnormal operation of the product. For example, a thermal cutout/limiter, or any other control/circuit relied upon for normal and abnormal conditions, is considered a protective control. Protective controls are also referred to as “limiting controls” or “safety controls” and are investigated under normal and single-fault conditions. Appendix B specifies control functions that are considered to result in a risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons.
3.4.4 ELECTRONIC COMPONENT — A part in which electrical conduction is achieved principally by electrons moving through a vacuum, gas or semiconductor. A Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) is considered to be an electronic component, but neon indicators are not.

3.4.5 ELECTRONIC DISCONNECTION — The de-energizing of a load within a product by an electronic device of a circuit. No electro-mechanical component having an air gap, such as a switch, contactor or relay is used to do-energize the load.
3.5 ELECTROSTATIC AIR CLEANER (AIR CLEANER) — A product intended to remove dust and other particles from the air, The complete product consists of an assembly of a power pack, controls, ionizer- collector cell, and other components.
3.5.1 ENCLOSURE — The part of the equipment that does one or more of the following:
a) Isolates ignition sources,
b) Renders inaccessible all or any part(s) of the equipment that may otherwise present a risk of electric shock, including uninsulated high- or line-voltage parts.
c) Retards propagation of flame initiated by electrical disturbances occurring within.
3.6 EXPOSED PART — A part that is subjected to handling in normal use without removing parts such as doors, covers, or other parts if removal requires the use of a tool.
3.6.1 FUNCTIONAL PART — A part other than an enclosure or cabinet used to maintain the intended relative physical position of fixed or moving parts, maintain the integrity of the structure or required for the intended operation of the product. A fan blade is an example of this type of part.
3.6.2 GROUNDING, FUNCTIONAL — Grounding of a point in a product which is necessary for a purpose other than safety.UL 867 pdf download.
