27、rldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other
28、 activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the su
29、bject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions d
30、etermined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Co
31、mmittees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While 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 wh
32、ich they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Public
33、ation and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication. 6) All users should ensure t
34、hat they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any n
35、ature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referen
36、ced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements 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. Internat
37、ional Standard IEC 60840 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 20: Electric cables. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 1999 and constitutes a technical revision. The significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition are described in the in
38、troduction of this edition. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 20/684/FDIS 20/692/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. 60840 IEC:2004 11 This publicati
39、on has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The committee has decided that the content of this publication will remain unchanged until 2008. At this date, the publication will be reconfirmed; withdrawn; replaced by a revised edition, or amended. 60840 IEC:2004 13 INTRODUCT
40、ION This document is a major revision of IEC 60840, second edition, published in February 1999. During the preparation of the second edition, a number of comments of principle were made on the CD and CDV and, at its meeting in February 1998, the former SC20A of TC20 agreed that these comments should
41、 be the basis of a major revision of IEC 60840 under the maintenance cycle. In addition, during the preparation of the new IEC 62067 covering cable systems above 150 kV up to 500 kV, it appeared that a number of comments were also applicable to IEC 60840. Therefore, all these comments were considere
42、d in the preparation of this third edition. In addition, the following other aspects have been considered. The first edition of IEC 60840, published in 1988, dealt only with cables. Accessories were added to the second edition, published in February 1999, which separately covered test methods and te
43、st requirements for a) cables alone; b) cables together with accessories (a cable system). Some countries have suggested that a better discrimination be made between systems, cables and accessories, particularly for the lower voltages of the scope, e.g. 45 kV. This has been taken into account in thi
44、s revision, which gives the type approval requirements and the range of approvals for a) cable systems; b) cables alone; c) accessories alone. Manufacturers and users may choose the most appropriate option for type approval. During the meeting of TC20 held in Stockholm in September 2000, it was agre
45、ed that WG16 consider the guidelines made by CIGRE for cables having a longitudinally applied metal foil, published in Electra n141 in April 1992. WG16 carried out this task and, further to a survey on the experience with such cables, have concluded that only a part of these guidelines should be int
46、roduced in this standard as a normative annex. Consideration has also been given to the recent work carried out by CIGRE on tests after installation on high voltage extruded insulation cables, the recommendations of which were published in Electra n173 in August 1997. These recommendations state, am
47、ong others, that d.c. tests should be avoided on the main insulation, as they are both ineffective and dangerous. On the other hand, d.c. tests are recommended on the oversheath. A list of relevant CIGRE references is given in the bibliography. 60840 IEC:2004 15 POWER CABLES WITH EXTRUDED INSULATION
48、 AND THEIR ACCESSORIES FOR RATED VOLTAGES ABOVE 30 kV (Um= 36 kV) UP TO 150 kV (Um= 170 kV) TEST METHODS AND REQUIREMENTS 1 Scope This International Standard specifies test methods and requirements for power cable systems for fixed installations, for rated voltages above 30 kV (Um= 36 kV) up to and
49、including 150 kV (Um= 170 kV). It also separately covers cables and accessories. The requirements apply to single-core cables and to individually screened three-core cables and to their accessories for usual conditions of installation and operation, but not to special cables and their accessories, such as submarine cables, for which modifications to the standard tests may be necessary or special test conditi
