ASTM D2308-2007(2013) Standard Specification for Thermoplastic Polyethylene Jacket for Electrical Wire and Cable《电线及电缆用热塑性聚乙烯套管的标准规格》.pdf

1、Designation: D2308 07 (Reapproved 2013) An American National StandardStandard Specification forThermoplastic Polyethylene Jacket for Electrical Wire andCable1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D2308; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adop

2、tion or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers a thermoplastic jacketing com-pound for 2 to 3

3、5 kV wire and cable, of at least 0.030 in. (0.76mm) nominal thickness, consisting substantially of pigmentedpolyethylene.1.2 In many instances the jacket material cannot be testedunless it has been formed around a conductor or cable.Therefore, tests done on jacketed wire and cable in thisspecificati

4、on are solely to determine the relevant property ofthe jacket material and not to test the jacketed conductor orcompleted cable.1.3 Whenever two sets of values are presented, in differentunits, the values in the first set are the standard, while those inparentheses are for information only.2.
