24、d arc welding cables. The cables are of rated voltage U0/U 100/100 V. The cables are intended for connections between the welding power source and the electrode holder and the work piece. Two types of cable are included, with respectively Class D and Class E conductors. These conductors are more fle
25、xible than Class 6 to EN 60228, with Class E having the greater flexibility. The maximum conductor operating temperature for each of the cables in this standard is 85 C. NOTE HD 516 contains extensive guidance on the safe use of cables in this standard, and gives specific current ratings and volt dr

33、ormal flexibility, or of Table B.2 for cables with extra high flexibility. NOTE The individual wires of a conductor may be plain or tinned. A separator of suitable material shall be applied around the conductor. 4.1.2 Size of cable The cable shall consist of a single conductor in accordance with Tab
34、le B.1 or Table B.2, in sizes from 10 mm2to 240 mm2. 4.1.3 Covering The covering shall be applied by extrusion around the conductor and may consist of one or two layers. Covering in one layer shall be material type EM 5 to EN 50363-2-2. Covering in two layers shall comprise an outer layer of materia
35、l type EM 5 to EN 50363-2-2 and an inner layer which shall be either of type EM 5 or of material type EI 7 to EN 50363-1. The ratio of the thicknesses of the two layers is not specified, but the minimum thickness of the outer layer shall not be less than 0,6 mm. 4.1.4 Marking The cable shall be mark
36、ed with the CENELEC code H01N2-D for cables with normal flexibility, or H01N2-E for cables with extra high flexibility. In addition, the cross-sectional area of the conductor shall be marked. The marking shall comply with Clause 6 of EN 50525-1. 4.2 Requirements 4.2.1 General Each cable shall comply
37、 with the appropriate requirements given in EN 50525-1, and the particular requirements of this Part. Testing shall be in accordance with Annex A. The conductor resistance shall not exceed the relevant value given in column 6 or 7 of Table B.1 or Table B.2 as appropriate. The thickness of the coveri
38、ng in one layer or the combined thickness of covering in the two layers shall comply with the specified value given in column 3 of either Table B.1 or Table B.2 as appropriate. The dimensions of the cables shall be within the limits specified in columns 4 and 5 of either Table B.1 or Table B.2 as ap

The requirements for the static flexibility test on completed cables shall be in accordance with Annex D. 4.2.2 Two-layer coverings Sampl
40、es for non-electrical tests on covering in two layers shall be prepared and tested in accordance with EN 50525-1, 5.7.2.3, c). Full testing shall be carried out on both layers, except where the resulting sample from the inner layer is below 0,8 mm thickness. In this case full testing shall be carrie
41、d out on the outer layer, but only the hot set test shall be carried out on the inner layer.
