18、the conductors of cables used in analogue and digital communication systems. These characteristics are described by the conductor resistance, loop resistance and resistance unbalance. It is to be read in conjunction with Part 1-1 of EN 50289, which contains essential provisions for its application.

21、t 1-1: Electrical test methods General requirements EN 50290-1-2 1) Communication cables - Part 1-2: Definitions 3 Definitions For the purposes of this European Standard the definitions of EN 50290-1-2 apply in addition to the following ones. 3.1 resistance the resistance describes the electrical DC
22、 resistance of a conductor or a screen. In a finished twisted pair additional resistance due to the twisting of the conductors is included 3.2 loop resistance the loop resistance specifies the electrical DC resistance of the two conductors including the additional resistance caused by the twisting o
23、f any 3.3 resistance unbalance the resistance unbalance R ub , in percent, is the difference value of two symmetrically applied conductors 4 Test method 4.1 Equipment The resistance shall be measured by means of equipment capable of measuring accurately to within 0,5 % of the values to be determined
24、.1)At draft stage 5 EN 50289-1-2:2001 4.2 Test sample The length of the cable under test (CUT) shall be known to within an accuracy better than 1 %. Both ends of the CUT shall be prepared, such that the current flows through all elements of the circuit under test and that the contact resistance can
25、be neglected with respect to the result. 4.3 Procedure For the evaluation of the conductor resistance and the resistance unbalance both ends of the test sample shall be connected to the terminals of the measuring device. To determine the value of the loop resistance, each pair/side of a quad or inne
26、r/outer conductor shall be measured from one end, with the other end short-circuited. Alternatively the loop resistance can be determined by the addition of the two individual conductor values. The current density shall not exceed 1 A/mm of conductor to avoid any significant increase of temperature
27、during the test. The ambient temperature shall be recorded. 5 Expression of test results 5.1 Expression The test results should be normalized to the reference length N. N L R R m = ( /N) (1) where R = resistance of reference length at measuring temperature; R m = measured resistance value of the CUT
28、 in ; L = length of sample in m; N= reference length in m. The resistance unbalance between conductors of pair or in the same side of a quad is % 100 R R R - R R min max min max ub + = (2) where R ub = resistance unbalance; R max = resistance in ohms () for the conductor with the higher resistance v
29、alue; R min = resistance in ohms () for the conductor with the lower resistance value.EN 50289-1-2:2001 6 5.2 Temperature correction The measured value, shall be corrected to the standard temperature of 20 C. For copper conductors the resistance shall be corrected to the standard temperature by mult
30、iplying the measured value by the factor k: () 20 - T 00393 , 0 1 1 k + = (3) where T= temperature in degrees Celsius of the CUT during the measurement. For other conductor materials factor k shall be indicated in the relevant cable specification. 6 Test report The test report shall give the test co
31、nditions: - temperature, - sample length, and record the corrected values for the reference length - conductor(s) resistance, - loop resistance, - resistance unbalance, as required in the relevant cable specification.blankBS EN 50289-1-2:2001 BSI 389 Chiswick High Road London W4 4AL BSI British Stan
