25、(IEC) is a worldwide 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 addi
26、tion to other 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 interes
27、ted in the subject 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 wit
28、h conditions determined 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 I
29、EC National Committees. 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
30、 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 undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
31、any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of confor
32、mity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 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 including individual experts and member

34、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 elements of this IEC Publication may

International Standard IEC 60426 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 112: Evaluation and qualification of electrical insulating materials and systems. This second edition cance
36、ls and replaces the first edition, published in 1973, and constitutes a technical revision. The main changes with respect to the previous edition are listed below: experience has indicated the need for improved description of the experimental method. It describes a revised procedure for the visual a
37、nd tensile strength test method that overcomes the limitations of the first edition; one older method of the first edition has partly been maintained in the informative annex. 60426 IEC:2007 5 This bilingual version, published in 2010-01, corresponds to the English version. The text of this standard
38、 is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 112/45/FDIS 112/55/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. The French version of this standard has not been voted upon. This publication has bee
39、n drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. 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. At this da
40、te, the publication will be reconfirmed; withdrawn; replaced by a revised edition, or amended.

Such electrolytic corrosion is dependent upon the composit
42、ion of the insulating material and the character of the metal; it is influenced by temperature, relative humidity, nature of the voltage and the time of exposure. Direct voltage produces much more rapid and extensive corrosion than alterna- ting voltage. Corrosion is more pronounced at the positive
43、electrode. Not only copper but also most other metals, except the noble metals such as platinum or gold, are subject to electrolytic corrosion. Electrolytic corrosion, however, is usually determined with insulating materials in contact with copper, brass or aluminium. Copper, however, is a basic met
44、al and most frequently used in electrotechnical, teletechnical and electronic equipment, especially for current conducting parts and therefore it was chosen as a basic test metal. Other metals may be used when needed for special purposes, but the results may differ from those described in this metho
45、d. Electrolytic corrosion may cause open-circuit failure in electrical conductors and devices. It may promote low resistance leakage path across or through electrical insulation and the products of corrosion may otherwise interfere with the operation of electrical devices, i.e. may prevent operation
46、 of contacts, etc. Electronic equipment operating under conditions of high humidity and elevated temperature may be particularly subjected to failure from electrolytic corrosion. Therefore, the selection of insulating materials, which do not produce electrolytic corrosion, is important for such appl
47、ications. The test method described in this second edition replaces two separate methods of the first edition visual and tensile strength method. The former tensile strength method of the first edition, using copper wires, has been maintained in an informative annex. It must be emphasized that the a
48、dvantage of this new method is that the same strip used for visual inspection is next used for the tensile strength test in opposite to the method described in the first edition. Therefore the correlation between tensile strength and visual examination is more obvious. 60426 IEC:2007 7 ELECTRICAL IN
