BS EN 6059-502:2014EN 6059-502:2014 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method of assessing the behaviour of protection sle

18、eves or conduits subject to an external electric arc, either at 115 Vac or 230 Vac 400 Hz. This Standard shall be used together with EN 6059-100. The primary aim of this test is to produce, in a controlled fashion, electric arcs at the immediate vicinity of a protection sleeve or conduit and to exam

19、ine possible consequences on cables inside this protection, which are supposed to be maintained in a safe condition. These electric arcs are representative of those, which may occur in service when a typical cable bundle is severely damaged. In order to optimize thickness and mass of such protection

20、, it is necessary to associate a current limit In to each sleeves or conduits construction. Two levels of prospective fault current are specified for all protection sizes. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispe

27、 specified in the concerned protection sleeves product standard, with bundle external protection to be tested. The cable bundle outer diameter shall be as closed as possible to the internal diameter of the protection to be tested. This diameter is obtained: with a full assembly of size 24 cables, or

28、 with a central part in various cable types covered with a full and uniform layer of size 24 cables. The sleeve shall be fitted in accordance with the manufacturers declared fitting instructions. 4.2 Aggressive bundle (bundle A) 4.2.1 Definition and constitution Bundles A are made of 7 arc-tracking

29、resistant cables, typically from EN 2267-010 product standard unless otherwise specified in the concerned protection sleeves product standard, without bundle external protection. The short circuit will be created on these bundles (see 4.3). The cables gauge is chosen in Table 1, in accordance with t

30、he In limit specified for the protection sleeves.

EXAMPLE If the sleeve must provide a 15 A protection, take g

31、auge 16 cables to built the bundle with 15 A CB ratings. For information the diameter of the bundle will be three times the cable diameter. 4.2.2 Preparation Cut seven separate lengths of approximately 0,5 m consecutively from one length of cable, and strip one of the ends of insulation to permit el

32、ectrical connection. Clean each length of cable with a clean cloth moistened with propan-2-ol (isopropyl alcohol) fluid. 4.2.3 Lay up the seven cables as follows: a) Form the cables in a six around one configuration as shown in Figure 1. b) Ensure that all cables are straight and geometrically paral

33、lel, and restrained by ties such that they are in continuous contact at least within the test zone. BS EN 6059-502:2014EN 6059-502:2014 (E) 6 c) Position the ties at 50 mm spacing toward the end of the specimen as shown in Figure 2.

Care shall be taken to position all laboratory wiring such that inductive effects are reduced to a practical

42、minimum. Supply cables shall be as short as possible. The ballast resistor Rb is in order to prevent over voltage (115 - 115 W per phase) during the arc extinction phases (opening of an inductive circuit). f) A rheostat, Rf, limiting maximum short-circuit current per phase by simulating a line lengt

43、h. g) Appropriate instrumentation, recording and switching control shall be installed in accordance with good laboratory practice. Key 1 Supply protection 2 Test bundle Figure 5 Test schematic circuit 5.1.2 For 230 Vac 400 Hz network a) Apply 5.1.1 with the following modifications: in b) replace “20

44、0/115 V 400 Hz” by “400/230 V 400 Hz”, in e) replace “115 - 115 W per phase” by “230 - 230 W per phase”. BS EN 6059-502:2014EN 6059-502:2014 (E) 10 b) Except if CBs are defined for 230 Vac uses, before starting tests, there must be CB preliminary verifications: verify each CB voltage drop under his

45、nominal intensity. make a short-circuit directly on the terminals of each CB with a shunt without resistance. verify again the voltage drop. repeat this cycle five times. there must be no significant variations in the voltage drop values. if variations or bad tendency occur, CB must be changed after

46、 each tripping. 5.2 Test equipment Construct an apparatus as shown diagrammatically in Figures 2, 3 and 4 which includes the following minimum provisions: a) Electrical terminations to provide a ready means of connecting test specimens into the circuit as shown in Figure 5. b) A transparent enclosur

49、sistances Rf have been defined in Table 2. Performance of the protection at a given maximum fault current shall be determined by testing three specimens. Thus six specimens are required for each protection size. 5.3.2 Additional testing of other sizes may be deemed necessary in particular cases and values of prospective fault currents, the ratings of thermal breaker protection which are typical of aircraft use have been included in Table 1. 5.3.3 It is emphasized that electrical arcing te
