5、) Inside back coverBSEN60127-5:1991 ii BSI 06-1999 National foreword This British Standard has been prepared under the direction of the Power Electrical Engineering Standards Policy Committee and is the English language version of EN60127-5 “Miniature fuses Part5: Guidelines for quality assessment o
6、f miniature fuse-links” which endorses IEC127-5:1988 “Miniature fuses Part5: Guidelines for quality assessment of miniature fuse-links” published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). This British Standard is one of a series. Together the standards supersede BS4265 which is withdra
7、wn. The new standards are as follows. BS EN60127-1, Definitions for miniature fuses and general requirements for miniature fuse-links. BS EN60127-2, Specification for cartridge fuse-links. BS EN60127-3, Specification for sub-miniature fuse-links. BS EN60127-5, Guide for the quality assessment of min
8、iature fuse links. It is anticipated that when IEC127-4 and IEC127-6 are published they will be approved by CENELEC as EN60127-4 and EN60127-6 respectively. IEC127-4 TTD:1989 is identical with DD183:1989 “Specification for universal modular fuses”. The foreword and preface of IEC127-5:1988 which do
9、not form part of the text of EN60127-5 have been quoted in National appendix NA. Annexes designated “normative” are part of the body of the standard. Annexes designated “informative” are given for information only. National appendices are designated “informative”. For the purposes of this British St
10、andard, any references to IEC page numbers in the text should be ignored. Cross-references. Details of international standards quoted in this British Standard for which there is an identical or technically equivalent British Standard are given in National appendix NC. A British Standard does not pur
11、port to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front

The reference d
20、ocument was submitted to the CENELEC members for formal vote and was approved by CENELEC as EN60127-5 on15 March1991. The following dates were fixed: For products which have complied with HD109.5 S1:1989 before1992-03-01, as shown by the manufacturer or by a certification body, this previous standar

24、ations and other documents relating to miniature fuses should have the same publication number in order to facilitate reference to fuses in other specifications, for example, equipment specifications. Furthermore, a single publication number and subdivision into parts would facilitate the establishm
25、ent of new standards, because clauses containing general requirements need not be repeated. The new IEC127 series is thus subdivided as follows: IEC127, Miniature fuses (general title). IEC127-1, Part1: Definitions for miniature fuses and general requirements for miniature fuse-links. IEC127-2, Part
26、2: Cartridge fuse-links. IEC127-3, Part3: Sub-miniature fuse-links. IEC127-4, Part4: Universal modular fuse-links. IEC127-5, Part5: Guidelines for quality assessment of miniature fuse-links. IEC127-6, Part6: Fuse-holders. (until now IEC257) IEC127-7, (Free for further documents.) IEC127-8, (Free for
27、 further documents.) IEC127-9, Part9: Test-holders and test-circuits. IEC127-10, Part10: User guide. 1 Scope This standard gives a guide for tests for assessing the quality of miniature fuse-links other than type tests, for the case where there is no complete agreement between the user and the manuf
28、acturer on what such tests should be. 2 Object To provide guidelines and limits generally acceptable for quality control purposes by large scale users and manufacturers of miniature fuse-links. This standard has validity for large scale series with lot sizes of10000 and more. It is also applicable f
29、or smaller lot sizes, if necessary. Periodic inspections by reduced type tests (Clause6) are intended to be carried out periodically in order to ensure that the level of technical performance previously verified by complete type tests as given in subsequent parts of IEC127 is maintained. The frequen
30、cy of periodic inspections in relation to lot-by-lot inspections is not established in this standard. 3 Reference documents IEC127, Miniature fuses.

It read as follows. 1) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters, prepared
45、by Technical Committees on which all the National Committees having a special interest therein are represented, express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the subjects dealt with. 2) They have the form of recommendations for international use and they are accepted by th
46、e National Committees in that sense. 3) In order to promote international unification, the IEC expresses the wish that all National Committees should adopt the text of the IEC recommendation for their national rules in so far as national conditions will permit. Any divergence between the IEC recomme
47、ndation and the corresponding national rules should, as far as possible, be clearly indicated in the latter. 4) The IEC has not laid down any procedure concerning marking as an indication of approval and has no responsibility when an item of equipment is declared to comply with one of its recommenda
48、tions. Preface The preface has been deleted. It read as follows. This standard has been prepared by Sub-Committee32C: Miniature Fuses, of IEC Technical Committee No.32: Fuses. It forms Part5 of IEC127. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: Full information on the voting for
