20、on for duct and directly buried single-mode optical fibre telecommunication cables FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to pr
21、omote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guide
22、s (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- governmental organizations liaising with the IEC a
23、lso participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as pos
24、sible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. W
25、hile all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertak
26、e to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC provides no marking procedure to in
27、dicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents includi
28、ng individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or relianc
29、e upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elem
30、ents of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 60794-3-11 has been prepared by subcommittee 86A: Fibres and cables, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics. The text of
31、this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 86A/1147/FDIS 86A/1165/RVD Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table.

This st
33、andard shall be used in conjunction with IEC 60794-3 and IEC 60794-3-10. The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until the maintenance result date indicated on the IEC web site under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related to the specific publication

35、 Detailed specification for duct and directly buried single-mode optical fibre telecommunication cables 1 Scope This part of IEC 60794 sets forth technical requirements and characteristics of single-mode optical fibre cables for duct and direct buried installation. This specification includes functi
36、onal mechanical, environmental and optical requirements, recommended features and test methods for assessing the product against the stated requirements. The specified test methods, where applicable, are those referenced in IEC 60794-1-1 and described in detail in IEC 60794-1-2. The requirements of
37、this specification are used in conjunction with IEC 60794-3 and IEC 60794-3-10. Multimode fibre requirements are not addressed in this document; see IEC 60794-3-12 1) . 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

47、on 5.1 Overview Single-mode optical fibres are widely used for telecommunication purposes and are cabled to satisfy the functional requirements of the installation environment. Further, cables placed into ducts and sub-ducts may be installed using solely, or a combination of, pushing, pulling, and a
48、ir-assisted installation techniques. For duct installations, the environment and infrastructure can be varied and may also involve the use of single and multiple sub-ducts. Directly buried cables may be installed by a variety of methods such as ploughing and trenching with different environments and
49、 infrastructure. This may require specific cable design solutions based on multiple layers of armours and sheaths. It is recognised that certain designs of cable for direct buried applications involving such solutions may also be suitable for duct installation. The functional requirements and test methods featured in this specification are based upon adherence to established and recognised installation techniques suc
