32、ards associated with fire need to be considered. In this respect the objective of component, circuit, and product design, as well as the choice of materials, is to reduce to acceptable levels the potential risks of fire during normal operating conditions, reasonable foreseeable abnormal use, malfunc
33、tion and/or failure. IEC/TC 89 has developed IEC 60695-1-10, together with its companion, IEC 60695-1-11, to provide guidance on how this is to be accomplished. The primary aims of IEC 60695-1-10 and IEC 60695-1-11 are to provide guidance on how: a) to prevent ignition caused by an electrically ener
34、gized component part, and b) to confine any resulting fire within the bounds of the enclosure of the electrotechnical product in the event of ignition. Secondary aims of IEC 60695-1-10 and IEC 60695-1-11 include the minimization of any flame spread beyond the products enclosure and the minimization
35、of the harmful effects of fire effluents such as heat, smoke, toxicity and/or corrosivity. Fires involving electrotechnical products can also be initiated from external non-electrical sources. Considerations of this nature should be dealt with in the overall fire risk assessment. In electrotechnical
36、 equipment, overheated metal parts can act as ignition sources. In glow-wire tests a red-hot glowing wire is used to simulate such an ignition source. IEC 60695-2-10 describes a glow-wire test apparatus and common test procedure, IEC 60695-2-11 describes a glow-wire flammability test for end product
37、s, and IEC 60695-2-13 describes a glow-wire ignition temperature test method for materials. This part of IEC 60695 describes a glow-wire flammability index test for materials. It should be used to measure, describe, and rank the properties of materials in response to heat caused by contact with an e
38、lectrically heated wire under controlled laboratory conditions. This may be useful for the evaluation of materials for use in products that may be exposed to excess thermal stress such as a fault current flowing through a wire, overloading of components, and/or bad connections. It should not be used
39、 to solely describe or appraise the fire hazard or fire risk of materials, products, or assemblies under actual fire conditions. However, results of this test may be used as elements of a fire risk assessment which takes into account all of the factors pertinent to a fire hazard assessment of a part
40、icular end use. This International Standard may involve hazardous materials, operations, and equipment. It does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and de
41、termine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

42、ndex (GWFI) test method for materials 1 Scope This part of IEC 60695 specifies the details of the glow-wire test to be applied to test specimens of solid electrical insulating materials or other solid materials for flammability testing to determine the glow-wire flammability index (GWFI). GWFI is th
43、e highest temperature, determined during this standardized procedure, at which the tested material a) does not ignite or, if it does, extinguishes within 30 s after removal of the glow-wire and is not totally consumed, and b) molten drips, if they occur, do not ignite the wrapping tissue. This test
44、method is a materials test carried out on a series of standard test specimens. The data obtained, along with data from the glow-wire ignition temperature (GWIT) test method for materials, IEC 60695-2-13, can then be used in a preselection process in accordance with IEC 60695-1-30 to judge the abilit
45、y of materials to meet the requirements of IEC 60695-2-11. NOTE As an outcome of conducting a fire hazard assessment, an appropriate series of preselection flammability and ignition tests may allow a reduction of end product testing. This basic safety publication is intended for use by technical com
46、mittees in the preparation of standards in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 104 and ISO/IEC Guide 51. One of the responsibilities of a technical committee is, wherever applicable, to make use of basic safety publications in the preparation of its publications. The requirements,
47、test methods or test conditions of this basic safety publication will not apply unless specifically referred to or included in the relevant publications. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
