33、ing inspection (whenspecified by the purchaser at the time of placing the order), thesample shall consist of a quantity of production units as shownin Table 5.10. Test Methods10.1 Tensile Strength and ElongationThe tensile strength,expressed in pounds-force per square inch (or megapascals),shall be

34、obtained by dividing the maximum load attained by thespecimen during the tension test, by the original cross-sectionalarea of the specimen. Tensile strength and elongation may bedetermined simultaneously on the same specimen.10.1.1 The elongation of wire may be determined as thepermanent increase in

35、 length, expressed in percent of theoriginal length, due to the breaking of the wire in tension,measured between gage marks placed originally 10 in. (250mm) apart upon the test specimen (Note 3). The elongation ofwire shall be determined as described preceding or by mea-surements made between the ja

36、ws of the testing machine.When the latter method is used, the zero length shall be thedistance between the jaws at the start of the tension test whenapproximately 10 % of the specified tensile strength has beenapplied and be as near 10 in. as practicable and the final lengthshall be the distance bet

37、ween the jaws at the time of rupture.The fracture shall be between gage marks in the case ofspecimens so marked or between the jaws of the testingmachine and not closer than 1 in. (25 mm) to either gage markor either jaw.NOTE 3It is known that the rate of loading during tension testingaffects the pe

38、rformance of the sample to a greater or lesser extentdepending upon many factors. In general, tested values of tensile strengthare increased and tested values of elongation are reduced with increase ofspeed of the moving head of the testing machine. In case of tests on softor annealed wire, however,

39、 the effects of speed of testing are notpronounced. Tests of soft wire made at speeds of moving head whichunder no-load conditions are not greater than 12 in./min (300 mm/min) donot alter the final results of tensile strength and elongation determinationsto any practical extent. In the case of hard-

40、drawn wire, these effects arepronounced when the speed of the moving head is excessive. It issuggested that tests be made at speeds of moving head which, underno-load conditions, are not greater than 3 in./min (76 mm/min), but in nocase at a speed greater than that at which correct readings can be m

41、ade.10.1.2 For Classes 10H and 15H, the elongation may bemeasured by means of an extensometer or other device suitablefor measuring percent elongation in 10 in., and having a vernierreading to 0.01 in. (0.25 mm) attached to the test specimen ata load of approximately 10 % of the specified tensile st

42、rength.The elongation shall be observed while applying a tension loadto the specimen and the reading when fracture occurs shall betaken as the elongation of the specimen. Tests in which theelongation is less than specified, but in which the fracture hasoccurred within 1 in. of the jaws or extensomet

43、er clamps, shallbe disregarded.10.2 ResistivityThe electrical resistivity of the materialshall be determined in accordance with Test Method B 193.10.3 Dimensional MeasurementsDimensional measure-ments shall be made with a micrometer caliper equipped witha vernier graduated in 0.001 in. (0.0025 mm).

44、each coil shall bemeasured at three places, one near each end and one near themiddle. From each spool approximately 12 ft (3.7 m) shall beunreeled and the wire measured in six places between thesecond (approximately 0.6 m) and twelfth foot from the end.10.4 Cohesion TestThe wire shall be twisted thr

45、ee turnsper length equivalent to 15 diameters of the wire to be testedand untwisted the same number of turns. An initial wire lengthlonger than specified may be used and the number of twistsincreased proportionately. The rate of applying the twist is notcritical.10.5 Adhesion TestThe wire shall be r

46、epeatedly reversebent to fracture by any convenient means.10.6 Copper Thickness and VolumeDetermination of theminimum copper thickness or copper volume shall be per-formed by microscopical examination of the polished end or bya stripping method or by any other suitable method agreedupon between the

47、manufacturer and the purchaser.TABLE 3 Equivalent Resistivity ValuesClassVolume Con-ductivity at20C % IACSResistivity Equivalents at 20CVolume Mass/Unit LengthVmm2/m Vcmil/ft Vin.
