The clause numbe
15、ring system used in this part ofBS 7870 aligns with HD 605 S2:2008 to facilitate cross-referencing, except forSection 1 and the annexes. However, where a particular test is not specified inthe separate parts and sections of BS 7870, the relevant clauses and/orsubclauses are marked “N/A” (not applica

It refers only to technical suitability and does not absolve the userfrom legal obligations relating to health and safety at any s
17、tage.Use of this documentIt has been assumed in the preparation of this British Standard that theexecution of its provisions will be entrusted to appropriately qualified andexperienced people, for whose use it has been produced.Presentational conventionsThe provisions of this standard are presented

20、SH STANDARDBS 7870-2:2011iv BSI 2011Section 1 General1.1 ScopeBS 7870-2 collates and specifies the test methods to be used for testingpolymeric insulated and sheathed electric cables, of rated voltage up to andincluding 19/33 kV, intended for public distribution systems, and for use inpower generati
21、ng plants and sub-stations.The test methods in this part of BS 7870 are additional to those alreadyharmonized, e.g. in the BS EN 60332 series and the BS EN 60811 series, and arefor use for testing cable types specified in BS 7870-3, BS 7870-4 and BS 7870-5. Ineach case, these standards give compleme
22、ntary information needed for thepractical application of the test method to each specific type of cable. ThereforeBS 7870-2:2011, as such, is not sufficient for carrying out and evaluating thetests on electric cables.Full test conditions (e.g. temperatures, durations) and/or requirements to be metar
23、e not specified in this standard. Such data needed to carry out the tests isgiven in the particular sections of BS 7870.NOTE The words “particular section” refer throughout to the individual sections ofBS 7870 in which particular cable types are specified.1.2 Normative referencesThe following refere

31、ied in the particular section, the tolerances on thetemperature values quoted in the test methods shall be as given in Table 1.5.2.Table 1.5.2 Tolerances on temperature valuesSpecified temperature, tCToleranceK40 t 020 150 31.5.3 Frequency and waveform of power-frequency test voltagesUnless otherwis
32、e specified in the details for the particular test, the test voltageshall be in the range 49 Hz to 61 Hz, of approximately sine-wave form, the peakratio value/r.m.s. value being equal to2 with a tolerance of 7%.

33、s for the particular test, the tests shall becarried out not less than 16 h after the extrusion or cross-linking, if any, of theinsulating or sheathing compounds.1.6 Rounding of numbersIt may be required that values are rounded to one or more decimal places. Thismay occur, for instance, in calculati
34、ng the average value of several measurementresults, or the minimum value by applying a percentage tolerance to a givennominal value. In these cases, rounding shall be carried out to the number ofdecimal places specified in the relevant clauses. The method of rounding shallthen be as follows:a) if th
35、e last figure to be retained is followed, before rounding, by 0, 1, 2, 3or 4, it shall remain unchanged (rounding down);b) if the last figure to be retained is followed, before rounding, by 9, 8, 7, 6or 5, it shall be increased by one (rounding up).EXAMPLES:2.449 2.45 rounded to two decimal places2.

39、esultsUnless otherwise specified, the mean of the 18 values (expressed in millimetres)obtained from the three pieces of insulation from each core shall be calculatedto two decimal places and rounded up or down as given below, and this shall betaken as the mean value of the thickness of the insulatio

41、 Measurement of non-metallic sheath thickness2.1.2.1 ProcedureThe thickness of the sheath shall be measured in accordance withBS EN 60811-1-1, 8.2. Unless otherwise specified, one sample of cable shall betaken and measurements made at three places.2.1.2.2 Evaluation of resultsThe mean of all the val
42、ues (expressed in millimetres) obtained from the threepieces of sheath shall be calculated to two decimal places and rounded up ordown as given below, and this shall be taken as the mean value of the thicknessof the sheath.If in the calculation the second decimal figure is 5 or more, the first decim
43、alfigure shall be raised to the next number; thus, for example, 1.74 shall berounded to 1.7 and 1.75 to 1.8.The lowest of all the values obtained shall be taken as the minimum thickness ofthe sheath at any place.2.1.3 Measurement of cable dimensions2.1.3.1 Measurement of overall dimensionsUnless oth

49、and width of each flat wire or strip in this sample offlat wires or strips by using either a micrometer with flat noses to an accuracy of0.01 mm or a vernier calliper with flat noses to an accuracy of 0.02 mm.Take the average values as the wire or strip thickness and wire or strip width.c) Metallic tapes thicknessTake and straighten a sample of each armour tape, remove the non-metalliccoating, if any, and determine the tape thickness at six different places.The measurement shall be made with eithe
