It cannot be assumed that,

25、because a wire or cable meets the requirements of parts 1 and 2, a vertical bunch of similar cables or wires will behave in a similar manner. This is because flame spread along a vertical bunch of cables depends on a number of features, such as a) the volume of combustible material exposed to the fi

26、re and to any flame which may be produced by the combustion of the cables; b) the geometrical configuration of the cables and their relationship to an enclosure; c) the temperature at which it is possible to ignite the gases emitted from the cables; d) the quantity of combustible gas released from t

27、he cables for a given temperature rise; e) the volume of air passing through the cable installation; f) the construction of the cable, for example armoured or unarmoured, multi- or single-core. All of the foregoing assume that the cables are able to be ignited when involved in an external fire. Part

28、 3 of IEC 60332 gives details of a test where a number of cables are bunched together to form various test sample installations. For easier use and differentiation of various test categories, the parts are designated as follows: Part 3-10: Apparatus Part 3-21: Category A F/R Part 3-22: Category A Pa

29、rt 3-23: Category B Part 3-24: Category C Part 3-25: Category D Parts from 3-21 onwards define the various categories and the relevant procedures. The categories are distinguished by test duration, the volume of non-metallic material of the test sample and the method of mounting the sample for the t

30、est. In all categories, cables having at least one conductor of cross-sectional area greater than 35 mm2are tested in a spaced configuration, whereas cables of conductor cross-sectional area of 35 mm2or smaller are tested in a touching configuration. The categories are not necessarily related to dif

31、ferent safety levels in actual cable installations. The actual installed configuration of the cables may be a major determinant in the level of flame spread occurring in an actual fire. The method of mounting described in category A F/R (part 3-21) is intended for special cable designs used in parti

32、cular installations. Categories A, B, C and D (parts 3-22 to 3-25 respectively) are for general use where different non-metallic volumes are applicable.

33、 IEC:2000+A1:2008 TESTS ON ELECTRIC AND OPTICAL FIBRE CABLES UNDER FIRE CONDITIONS Part 3-10: Test for vertical flame spread of vertically-mounted bunched wires or cables Apparatus 1 Scope The series of International Standards covered by Parts 3-10, 3-21, 3-22, 3-23, 3-24 and 3-25 of IEC 60332 speci

34、fies methods of test for the assessment of vertical flame spread of vertically-mounted bunched wires or cables, electrical or optical, under defined conditions. NOTE For the purpose of this standard the term “electric wire or cable” covers all insulated metallic conductor cables used for the conveya

35、nce of energy or signals. This part of IEC 60332 details the apparatus and its arrangement and calibration. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references,

36、the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. IEC 60695-4, Fire hazard testing Part 4: Terminology concerning fire tests IEC Guide 104, The preparation of safety publications and the use of basic safety publications and group safety publications 3 Definitions For

37、the purpose of this part of IEC 60332 the following definition applies. The definition is taken from IEC 60695-4. 3.1 ignition source source of energy that initiates combustion 4 Test environment The test shall not be carried out if the external wind speed, measured by an anemometer fitted on the to

38、p of the test rig, is greater than 8 m/s and shall not be carried out if the temperature of the inside walls is below 5 C or above 40 C measured at a point approximately 1 500 mm above floor level, 50 mm from a side wall, and 1 000 mm from the door. The enclosure door shall be closed throughout the

39、test. BS EN 60332-3-10:2009!“Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, ISO/EXCHANGE CHINA STANDARDS, 08/04/2010 08:04, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSI60332-3-10 IEC:2000+A1:2008 7 5 Test apparatus The test apparatus consists of the following: 5.1 Test chamber The test rig (see Figures 1a and 1b) shall comprise a vertical

40、 test chamber having a width of (1 000 100) mm, a depth of (2 000 100) mm and a height of (4 000 100) mm; the floor of the chamber shall be raised above ground level. The test chamber shall be nominally airtight along its sides, air being admitted at the base of the test chamber through an aperture

41、of (800 20) mm (400 10) mm situated (150 10) mm from the front wall of the test chamber (see figure 1). An outlet (300 30) mm x (1 000 100) mm shall be made at the rear edge of the top of the test chamber. The back and sides of the test chamber shall be thermally insulated to give a coefficient of h

42、eat transfer of approximately 0,7 Wm2K1. For example, a steel plate 1,5 mm to 2,0 mm thick covered with 65 mm of mineral wool with a suitable external cladding is satisfactory (see figure 2). The distance between the ladder and the rear wall of the chamber is (150 10) mm, and between the bottom rung

43、 of the ladder and the floor (400 5) mm. The clearance between the lowest point of the test piece and the floor is approximately 100 mm (see figure 3). 5.2 Air supply A means of supplying a controlled air flow through the chamber shall be fitted. Air shall be introduced into the test chamber through

44、 a box fitted directly underneath, and of approximately the same dimensions as, the air inlet aperture. Air shall be blown into the box from a suitable fan through a straight section of duct which shall enter from the rear of the test chamber and be parallel to the floor and along the burner centre

45、line as shown in Figure 1b. The duct shall be arranged to allow air into the box through an opening in the longest side. NOTE 1 A grille may be placed over the air inlet aperture to facilitate accessing the test chamber but should neither restrict the airflow nor modify its direction. NOTE 2 A duct

46、of constant cross-section of approximately 240 cm2and minimum length of 60 cm is recommended. Prior to burner ignition, the air flow shall be adjusted to a rate of (5 000 500) l/min at a constant controlled temperature of (20 10) C and at atmospheric pressure and measured at the inlet side before th

47、e test commences. This air flow rate shall be maintained throughout the test until cable burning or glowing has ceased or for a maximum time of 1 h from completion of the test flame application period, after which period the flame or glowing shall be extinguished. NOTE 3 In order to remove noxious g

48、ases, it is recommended to maintain the air flow for some minutes after the end of the test, before entering the test chamber. 5.3 Ladder types There are two types of tubular steel ladder: a standard ladder of (500 5) mm width and a wide ladder of (800 10) mm width. Details of the types of ladder ar

49、e given in figures 4a and 4b. 5.4 Effluent cleaning attachment Legal requirements may make it necessary for equipment for collecting and washing the effluent to be fitted to the test chamber. This equipment shall not cause a change in the air flow rate through the test chamber.
