20、iii Foreword This British Standard has been prepared by Subcommittee GEL/20/6. This new standard has been produced in view of the increasing demand for cables for fixed wiring in ships and on mobile and fixed offshore units having fire resistance (limited circuit integrity) in the event of fire. NOT

21、E Two categories of fire resistance are specified in this standard. Further categories are under consideration. BS 7917 complements BS 6883 which specifies a range of cables having no requirement to maintain fire resistance (limited circuit integrity) in the event of fire. The minimum and maximum di

22、ameters, both those over the inner sheath and those over the outer sheath, quoted in the relevant construction tables are indicative only and do not take into account any glanding requirements. It has been assumed in the preparation of this British Standard that the execution of its provisions will

23、be entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced people, for whose use it has been produced. WARNING. This British Standard calls for the use of substances and/or procedures that may be injurious to health if adequate precautions are not taken. It refers only to technical suitability and does

24、 not absolve the user from legal obligations relating to health and safety at any stage. Annexes C, D, E and F are normative. Annexes A, B, G and H are informative. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises

35、aracteristics of electric cables. 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this British Standard the terms and definitions given in BS 4727-2:Group 08 and the following apply. 3.1 voltages 3.1.1 rated voltage reference voltage for which the cable is designed NOTE This is expressed as a combinatio

36、n of the values U 0 and U. 3.1.2 rated voltage U 0 nominal power-frequency voltage between conductor(s) and armour or earth for which the cable is suitable 3.1.3 rated voltage U nominal power-frequency voltage between phase conductors for which the cable is suitable 3.1.4 maximum voltage U m maximum

37、 sustained power-frequency voltage between phase conductors, for which the cable is suitable NOTE The values of U m for the relevant range are given in Table A.1. 3.2 cable types 3.2.1 individually screened pair, triple or quad cable cable in which each individual pair triple or quad is surrounded b

39、nal electrical influences2 BSI 06-1999 BS 7917:1999 3.3 values 3.3.1 nominal value value by which a quantity is designated and which is often used in tables NOTE In this standard, nominal values usually give rise to values to be checked by measurements taking into account specified tolerances. 3.3.2

40、 approximate value value which is only indicative NOTE In this standard, values described as “approximate” do not constitute requirements to be checked by measurements. 3.4 fire resistance (limited circuit integrity) ability of a cable to maintain circuit integrity for a stated period of time and un

41、der conditions as defined in a standard test NOTE The designation “fire resistant” given to a cable implies that it fulfils the requirements of the relevant standard fire resistance test 3.5 tests 3.5.1 type tests (symbol T) tests made before supplying, on a general commercial basis, a type of cable

42、 covered by this standard, in order to demonstrate satisfactory performance characteristics to meet the intended application NOTE These tests are such that, after they have been made, they need not be repeated unless changes are made in the cable material, design or manufacturing process which might

43、 change the performance characteristics. 3.5.2 sample tests (symbol S) tests made by the manufacturer on samples of completed cable, or components taken from a completed cable, so as to verify that the finished product meets the specified requirements 3.5.3 routine tests (symbol R) tests made by the

44、 manufacturer on each manufactured length of cable to check that the whole of each length meets the specified requirements 3.5.4 tests after installation tests intended to demonstrate the integrity of the cable and its accessories as installed 4 Designation of cables 4.1 Voltage designation Every ca

45、ble shall be designated by the rated voltages U 0 and U expressed in the form U 0 /U. The rated voltages recognized for the purposes of this standard shall be 150/250 V, 600/1 000 V, 1 900/3 300 V and 3 300/3 300 V. 4.2 Cable designation 4.2.1 Cables shall be designated according to the type of oute

46、r sheath material used in their construction as follows. Type SW 2. Cables with an outer sheath material conforming to BS 7655-2.6:1993, type SW 2, heavy duty enhanced oil-resisting, flame retardant with reduced halogen gas emission. Type SW 3. Cables with an outer sheath material conforming to BS 7

NOTE Attention is drawn to the fact that t

49、he ability of a given cable to meet a particular category in this standard refers only to the test condition stated, and the level of performance achieved in a particular installation may be influenced by actual installation conditions. 5 General requirements 5.1 Construction and dimensions The construction and dimensions of the cables shall be as specified in the appropriate construction table (Tables 6 to 15 or Tables 19 to 34, as applicable).
