Significance and Use4.1 These specifications cover the minimum electrical andphysical properties designated by the manufacturer and thedetai

21、led procedures by which such properties are to be deter-mined. The purchaser may at his option perform or haveperformed any of these tests in order to verify the manufactur-ers designation. Claims for failure to meet the specification aresubject to verification by the manufacturer.4.2 Bypass jumpers

22、 are devices designed and used to keepelectrical circuits effectively continuous (electrically bridged)for short periods of time at work locations when conductors orequipment may otherwise be opened or made discontinuousduring work operations. Bypass jumpers are insulated totemporarily protect perso

23、nnel from brush or accidental contactonly; therefore, when authorizing their use, a margin of safetyshould be provided between the maximum voltage used on,and the proof-test voltage at which they are tested. Therelationship between proof-test voltage and the maximumvoltage at which bypass jumpers ar

24、e used is shown in Table 1.WarningPortions of these devices (clamps and ferrules) arenot insulated and offer no protection from accidental contact.CLAMPS FOR BYPASS JUMPERS5.
