23、 METHODS FOR NON-METALLIC MATERIALS Part 406: Miscellaneous tests Resistance to stress cracking of polyethylene and polypropylene compounds FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committ
24、ees (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 activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical R
25、eports, 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 subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental an
26、d 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 determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreemen
27、ts 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 Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and
28、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 which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote in
29、ternational 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 Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated i
30、n 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 conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All u
31、sers 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 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or o
32、ther 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 reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication
33、 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 be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such pat
34、ent rights. International Standard IEC 60811-406 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 20: Electric cables. This Part 406 of IEC 60811 cancels and replaces Clause 8 of IEC 60811-4-1:2004, which is withdrawn. Full details of the replacements are shown in Annex A of IEC 60811-100:2012. There ar
35、e no specific technical changes with respect to the previous edition, but see the Foreword to IEC 60811-100:2012. 4 60811-406 IEC:2012 The text of this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 20/1290/FDIS 20/1339/RVD Full information on the voting for the approval of this
36、 standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. This part of IEC 60811 shall be used in conjunction with IEC 60811-100. A list of all the parts in the IEC 60811 series, published under t
37、he general title Electric and optical fibre cables Test methods for non-metallic materials, can be found on the IEC website. The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in t
38、he data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be reconfirmed, withdrawn, replaced by a revised edition, or amended. 60811-406 IEC:2012 5 INTRODUCTION The IEC 60811 series specifies the test methods to be used for testing non-metallic materials of all types of cables
39、 These test methods are intended to be referenced in standards for cable construction 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 ha
40、ve been developed and used over many years principally for the materials in all energy 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. 6 60811-406 IEC:2012 ELEC
41、TRIC AND OPTICAL FIBRE CABLES TEST METHODS FOR NON-METALLIC MATERIALS Part 406: Miscellaneous tests Resistance to stress cracking of polyethylene and polypropylene compounds 1 Scope This Part 406 of IEC 60811 gives the procedure for evaluating the resistance to stress cracking of polyethylene and po
42、lypropylene compounds which are typically used for communication and optical fibre cables. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.
43、 For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. IEC 60811-100:2012, Electric and optical fibre cables Test methods for non-metallic materials Part 100: General 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definiti
44、ons 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. Unless otherwise specified, tests shall be carried out at room temperature. Two test procedures can be applied to materials, depending on cable system conditions and en
45、vironments; a summary of test conditions is given in Table 1: for less severe conditions: Method A; for more severe conditions: Method B. These test procedures apply only to the original granules used as sheathing materials. 60811-406 IEC:2012 7 Table 1 Summary of test conditions and requirements Co
