These test methods are intended to be referenced in standards for cable construction

25、and for cable materials. NOTE 1 Non-metallic materials are typically used for insulating, sheathing, bedding, filling or taping within cables. NOTE 2 These test methods are accepted as basic and fundamental and have been developed and used over many years principally for the materials in all energy

26、cables. They have also been widely accepted and used for other cables, in particular optical fibre cables, communication and control cables and cables for ships and offshore applications.

29、est methods for non-metallic materials Part 100: General 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in IEC 60811-100 apply. 4 Test method 4.1 General This part of IEC 60811 shall be used in conjunction with IEC 60811-100. All the tests shall be carried

30、 out not less than 16 h after the extrusion or cross-linking of the insulating or sheathing compounds Tests shall be carried out at the temperature specified in the relevant cable standard. This cold impact test is intended for sheathed cables of any type, irrespective of the type of insulation of t

31、he cores, and for the insulation of wires, cables and flat cables without sheath if required by the relevant cable standard. The insulation of sheathed cables is not subjected directly to the cold impact test. 4.2 Sampling and preparation of the test pieces Three pieces of complete cable each having

32、 a length at least five times the diameter of the cable with a minimum of 150 mm, shall be taken. All covering external to the component shall be removed. 4.3 Apparatus The apparatus to be used for this test is represented in Figure 1, with explanations. BS EN 60811-506:201260811-506 IEC:2012 7 The

33、apparatus shall be placed on a pad of sponge rubber about 40 mm thick and held in a suitable low temperature cabinet before and during the test. 4.4 Test conditions The test temperature shall be as specified for the type of compound in the relevant cable standard. For power cables for fixed installa

34、tions, the mass of the hammer for testing the samples shall not be less than the values as given in Table 1.

Flat cables shall be tested wit

37、h their minor axis perpendicular to the steel base. 4.5 Procedure The apparatus and the pieces of cable to be tested shall be placed side by side in a suitable low temperature cabinet and maintained at the specified temperature. The contents of the refrigerator shall then be allowed to cool for a pe

38、riod not less than 16 h, which includes the time for the apparatus to cool down. If the apparatus has been pre-cooled, a shorter cooling period is permissible, but not less than 1 h provided that the test pieces have attained the prescribed test temperature. At the end of the prescribed periods, eac

39、h piece in turn shall be placed in position as shown in Figure 1, and the hammer shall be allowed to fall from a height of 100 mm. BS EN 60811-506:2012 8 60811-506 IEC:2012 Before examining the insulation of cables or cables without a sheath, the test pieces shall be allowed to attain approximately

40、ambient temperature after the test. The insulation shall then be examined after the test pieces have been twisted, while held straight, through an angle equal to 360 for each 100 mm length. If, however, it is not possible to twist the samples in this way, they shall be examined as specified for the

41、sheath. Before examining the sheath of cables, if any, the test pieces shall be allowed to attain approximately room temperature and then be immersed in hot water; the sheath shall then be cut open in the direction of the axis of the cables. NOTE Hand-hot water (40 C to 50 C) has been found to be ad

42、equate. The inside and outside of the sheath and the insulation shall then be examined. The insulation of cables with sheath shall be examined on the outside only. 4.6 Expression of results The three pieces shall show no cracks when examined with normal or corrected vision without magnification. If

43、only one sample of the three shows cracks, then the test shall be repeated on three further samples. If none of these shows cracks, then the requirements of the test are met. However, if any one of the three additional samples shows cracks, the insulation and/or sheath does not comply with the test

44、requirements. 5 Test report The test report shall be in accordance with that given in IEC 60811-100.
