AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Approval of an American National Standard requires review by ANSI that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board
6、 of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made
7、 towards their resolution. The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has approved the standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to t
8、he standards. The American National Standards Institute does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard. Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue an interpretation of an American National Standard in the name of t
9、he American National Standards Institute. Requests for interpretations should be addressed to the secretariat or sponsor whose name appears on the title page of this standard. CAUTION NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American Nati
10、onal Standards Institute require that action be taken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this standard. Purchasers of American National Standards may receive current information on all standards by calling or writing the American National Standards Institute. Notice of Disclaimer each mem
11、ber is made of bunch stranded construction of small diameter individual strands. The small diameter individual strands are usually made of 24 AWG wires, soft or annealed per ASTM B3 or B33. It is acceptable to use individual strands finer than 24 AWG in telecommunications power cables identified as
12、Class I in this standard. The multiple strands of small-diameter wire strands may consist of 24-to-34 AWG strands wound together as per ASTM B172. 3.1.6 Limiting Oxygen Index (LOI): Percentage of oxygen in a stream of air in which a material will continue to support combustion after the ignition sou
13、rce is removed. 3.2 Acronyms locations subject to saturation with water or other liquids such as washing areas and in unprotected locations exposed to weather. Telecommunications facilities that meet this “wet“ definition are underground manholes, handholes and outside cabinets subject to flooding.
14、5.6 Jacket The jacket (covering) typically consists of a textile braid of cotton or rayon that is also saturated with a polymeric coating for cable Type 3 and Type 4. Cable Type 1 and Type 2 do not have a jacket. The minimum coverage of the textile braid shall be 80% as determined per the methods in
15、 UL 44. 5.6.1 Jacket Saturant The saturant is applied to the textile braid material to improve the mechanical and fire resistance performance of the braid. With the saturant, the braid becomes a uniform layer, with much higher resistance to mechanical abrasion and cold flow characteristics. ATIS-060
16、0017.2014 9 The textile braid saturation shall be sufficient that it covers and penetrates the textile braid picks without visible cracks; does not flake during bending operations; and when the cable jacket is cut, it will not have loose strands or fray. 5.6.2 Smoke the cable sample is deemed to hav
17、e failed the test. NOTE: Power cable insulation that passes this test and associated “creep resistance” testing should not require additional fiber insulation when tied to cable racks or other supports. 5.14 Insulation Tensile Strength This cable shall comply with the requirements of UL 44. 5.15 Die
18、lectric Voltage-Withstand Test (UL 44) This cable shall comply with the requirements of UL 44. 6 Marking Cables covered under this standard shall be marked in accordance with UL 44. This shall include but not be limited to the following: Manufacturers name trade name or similar code sufficient to pr
19、ovide traceability. RHH and/or RHW. Voltage rating 600 volts. Cable size. “For CT use” or “for use in cable tray” for cables 1/0 AWG and larger. LS and appropriate flame rating. Year of manufacture/manufacturing lot number or some other designation by the manufacturer to provide traceability. Sequen
20、tial length marking in feet or meters. Non-halogen. ATIS-Type #, where the “#” shall be replaced by the “Type” number (1, 2, 3 or 4). ATIS-0600017.2014 15 6.1 Jacket Colors The jacket color shall be as specified by the purchaser. Commonly available colors are: Grey Green Black Red Blue 7 Packaging 7
21、1 Protection All cable shall be packaged and shipped on reels and protected against physical damage and moisture incursion. The ends of the cables shall be sealed to prevent entry of moisture. 7.2 Lengths on Reel All cable on a reel shall be a single continuous length. Cable on a reel shipped from
22、a manufacturer to a distributor or other intermediate location may be whatever length is negotiated between buyer and seller. Cable on reels shipped into a Central Office environment shall have a maximum weight of 1200 lbs. (544 kg) or as specified by the purchaser. 8 Quality Management System Requi
23、rement The manufacturer shall have ISO 9000 type or other certified Quality Management System (QMS). In addition to the management system, the manufacturer will demonstrate to the customer that they have specific inspection plans in place to monitor the key parameters, such as: Diameter of the compl
24、eted conductor. Weight/ft and DC resistance of completed conductor. Oxygen Index of the insulation material. Wall thickness and insulated OD measurements. Jacket braid picks/inch. Saturant coating. Lot traceability. Many other tests specified in this document and UL 44 are Qualification tests. The m
25、anufacturer is responsible to ensure that the product continues to pass those tests on an on-going basis. ATIS-0600017.2014 16 Annex A: Force to Bend Measurement Test (Normative) A.1 This test measures the force required to bend a wire over a specified radius. The force is measured using a commercia
26、l compression tester, such as those available from Instron Corporation, and the apparatus shown in Figure A.1. A.2 All tests shall run at a temperature of 73 +/- 6 F (23 +/-3 C). The bend radius “R“ and the distance between the guide rollers “L“ are as follows (refer to Figure A.1 for graphical repr
27、esentation): Figure A.1: Force to Bend Measurement Test Setup Table A.1: Bend Radius and Roller Spacing Wire Size Bend Radius “R” (inch) Roller Spacing “L” (inch) 750 kcmil 7.5 18 500 kcmil 7.5 16.5 350 kcmil 7.5 15 4/0 AWG 4 11 2/0 AWG 3.5 10 1/0 AWG 3 9 2 AWG 2.5 8.5 4 AWG 2 8 6 AWG 2 8 ATIS-06000
28、17.2014 17 A.3 The standard speed for the approach of the ram shall be 2 in./minute. A.4 The test specimen shall consist of a length of wire (approximately 24 in. long 610 mm) that has been annealed to remove any residual stress/curl in the insulation. The annealing is achieved by conditioning the t
29、est sample at 100 degrees centigrade for one hour. During the annealing, the sample shall be secured to keep it from curling. A.5 The apparatus shall be set up using the specified ram radius “R“ and roller spacing “L“ for the wire size under test. A.6 The wire is placed in the bending apparatus and
30、the force required to bend the wire over the specified radius is measured. A.7 Step A.6 shall be repeated three times on each sample. The wire shall be straightened and rotated 120 between each test. ATIS-0600017.2014 18 Annex B: Spring Back Test (Normative) Spring back of power cable shall be measu
31、red for 1/0 AWG to 1000 kcmil using the set-up shown below and a fixed cable rack configuration for field testing. After pre-conditioning the cable to remove cable reel curl, bending the cable to a full 90, the cable is released and the angle of spring back is recorded. Field testing of power cable
32、spring back can be accomplished by attaching a 3 to 4-foot length of power cable rack to a flat surface such as a table. A 3-foot sample of pre-conditioned power cable with cable reel curl removed should have the first 20 inches securely attached to the side of the cable rack with multi-ply cord or
33、heavy duty cable ties. The power cable sample shall be bent perpendicular to the power cable rack using the minimum bend radius for the size under test as specified in Table 5.5. The power cable is then released, and the angle of spring back is measured with a protractor and recorded. Figure B.1: Sp
