30、 they are water-tight cables. Since these cables are specifically designed for new, various existing and emerging, telecommunication applications that involve high frequency spectrum up to 10 MHz, they include an overall screen to improve the electromagnetic behaviour. These cables contain from one

31、pair up to 600 pairs that can be either in pairs or quads. 4.2 Environment and product safety requirement ffs 4.3 Testing For all test procedures described in this subclause, the test conditions shall be the standard atmospheric conditions (23 5)C and 20 % - 70 % Relative Humidity, unless otherwise

32、stated. All measured and computed values are to be rounded to the number of decimal places given in the corresponding requirement or objective. The parameters specified in this standard may be affected by measurement uncertainty arising either from measurement errors or calibration errors due to a l

33、ack of suitable standards. Acceptance criteria shall be interpreted with respect to this consideration. 5 Requirements for conductor 5.1 Construction and dimensions The conductor shall consist of annealed copper, uniform in quality and free from defects. The properties of the copper shall be in acco

34、rdance with IEC 60028. The conductor shall be solid, circular in section. Normally the conductor should be drawn in one piece. Joints in the conductor are permitted, provided that the tensile strength of a joint is not less than 85 % of the un-jointed solid conductor. The diameter of the conductor s

35、hall be between 0,4 mm to 0,8 mm. 5.2 Mechanical requirements The conductor elongation at break shall be tested according to EN 50289-3-2 and shall be minimum 15 %. 7 EN 50407-1:2004 5.3 Electrical requirements 5.3.1 Conductor resistance While measured in accordance with EN 50289-1-2, the conductor

36、resistance shall meet the computed values when using EN 50290-2-1, Subclause 12.1. 5.3.2 Conductor resistance unbalance While measured in accordance with EN 50289-1-2, the conductor resistance unbalance shall be maximum 2 % 6 Requirements for insulation 6.1 Construction material and dimensions 6.1.1

37、 Construction Conductor insulation shall be composed of solid, cellular or composite (e.g. foam skin) polyolefin. The insulation shall be continuous, having a thickness as uniform as possible. The minimum thickness of the insulation shall be measured in accordance with the method specified in EN 608

38、11-1-1, Subclause 8.2. The insulation shall be applied to fit closely to the conductor. The stripping properties of the insulation shall be checked in accordance with the method specified in EN 60811-1-1, Subclause 8.1. It shall be possible to strip the insulation from the conductor easily and witho

39、ut damage to the insulation or the conductor. When required the insulated conductors shall be coloured for identification. Colours shall correspond reasonably with the standard colours shown in HD 402. 6.1.2 Colour code The colour code shall be agreed between the customer and the manufacturer. 6.2 M

40、echanical requirements Shrinkage of insulation shall be checked against EN 50290-2-23. The shrinkage shall be less than 5 %. 6.3 Electrical requirements 6.3.1 Insulation resistance When tested according to EN 50289-1-4, the insulation resistance shall be at least 5 000 Mohm.km under 500 V d.c. 6.3.2

EN 50407-1:2004 - 8 - 7 Requirements for cable element 7.1 Construction and dimensions The cable element is - a pair consisting of two insulated condu

42、ctors twisted together and designated wire “a“ and wire “b“, or - a quad consisting of four insulated conductors twisted together and designated wire “a“, wire “c“, wire “b“ and wire “d“ in order of rotation. The choice of the twist configuration (SZ or helical) and the maximum average length of lay

43、 in the finished cable shall be made with respect to the specified electrical requirements, handling performance and the pair or quad integrity. NOTE Forming the element with a variable lay can lead to the infrequent but acceptable occurrence of the maximum lay being longer than that which may be sp

44、ecified. 7.1.1 Screening of the cable element Where a screen is required over the pair or quad, to improve the external and internal immunity, it may consist of the following: a) an aluminium tape laminated to a plastic tape; b) an aluminium tape laminated to a plastic tape and a metal-coated or pla

45、in copper drain wire whereby the metal tape is in contact with the drain wire. A protective wrapping may be applied under or/and over the screen. 7.1.2 Spare cable elements The cable may be equipped with spare pairs or quads in accordance with the basic cable structure. The number of spare cable ele
