35、ted below. Each clamp shall be tested for the smallest and largest bundled conductor size for which it is marked. The following type tests shall be carried out.

37、l be subjected to high mechanical loads at ambient temperature in order to ensure that they are capable of sustaining loads likely to be encountered in service without being damaged or damaging the conductor. NOTE Test may be carried out on samples which have been subjected to the climatic ageing te

38、st or on the cores (see 8.5.2.1) 8.1.1.2 Test arrangement Two tension clamps shall be assembled on to the ABC, in accordance with the manufacturers instructions, and fitted into a tensile testing machine as shown in Figure 1. The length of tails on the unloaded side of the clamps shall be a minimum

39、of 350 mm and with a minimum radius of 250 mm. The span between the two clamps shall be a minimum of 100 D, where D is the circumscribed diameter of the ABC.

The load shall be in

41、creased to 20 % of MBL of the cable, and the cores shall be marked where they exit the clamps. The load shall be maintained at that value 10 % for 6 h. NOTE 1 A reduced time period may be agreed between customer and manufacturer. The load shall then be increased to a limit of 80 % of the MBL of the

42、cable for ABC sizes up to, and including, 95 mm. For conductor cross sections above 95 mm the load shall be reduced to a limit of 60 % of the MBL of the cable. This load shall be held for 60 s before the load is removed. NOTE 2 When a clamp of a different rating is needed the clamp may be tested acc

43、ording to the value agreed by the manufacturer and the customer. 8.1.1.4 Requirements No damage shall occur, which would affect the correct function of the tension clamp. Slippage of the cores of the cable with respect to the clamp parts when in contact shall not exceed 10 mm. BS EN 50483-2:2009 9 E

44、N 50483-2:2009 The clamp shall pass the dielectrical voltage test detailed in 8.3.1. The cable shall pass the dielectrical voltage test detailed in 8.3.2. 8.1.2 Breaking load test (optional) NOTE This test may be carried out on samples which have previously been subjected to the corrosion ageing tes

45、t (8.5.1). In this case it is not necessary to carry out the test before the corrosion test. 8.1.2.1 Principle The tension clamps shall be subjected to increasing mechanical loads, at ambient temperature, in order to ensure that they do not break before loads equal to or greater than the MBL of the

46、maximum ABC size, for which the clamp is designed, are reached. 8.1.2.2 Test arrangement Two tension clamps shall be assembled in accordance with the manufacturers instructions on a simulated ABC made of metallic round bars or a suitable conductor of the same diameter as the ABC core and fitted into

47、 a tensile testing machine as shown in Figure 1. To avoid any slippage between bars and the clamps, fixed stops may be used on the bars. The test shall be carried out at ambient temperature. 8.1.2.3 Procedure The tensile load shall be applied within 15 min of the clamp being assembled. The load shal

48、l be increased to the MBL of the largest size of ABC core for which the clamp is designed. It shall be maintained at this load for 60 s. The load shall then be increased until the breaking of the tension clamp occurs. NOTE 1 When requested by the customer a different load may be increased to the MBL

49、 of the clamp given by the manufacturer to check the breaking load of the clamp. The clamps shall not be tightened or adjusted during the test. NOTE 2 The failure value may be noted for information. 8.1.2.4 Requirements Neither tension clamp shall break until the test load has been held for 60 s and the MBL of the cable is reached. 8.1.3 Tensile test at high temperature 8.1.3.1 Principle The tension clamps shall be subjected to
