27、of all types of cables. These test methods are intended to be referenced in standards for cable construction and for cable materials. NOTE 1 Non-metallic materials are typically used for insulating, sheathing, bedding, filling or taping within cables. NOTE 2 These test methods are accepted as basic
28、and fundamental and have been developed and used over many years principally for the materials in all energy cables. They have also been widely accepted and used for other cables, in particular optical fibre cables, communication and control cables and cables for ships and offshore applications. Eac
29、h test method is contained in a separately numbered part. These respective parts are identified in Table A.1 of Annex A, with the corresponding clauses from the previous version of this part given for information. Table A.2 of Annex A lists the clauses of the previous version, to facilitate location
30、 of the corresponding part in the current version.

31、 test methods given in the particular parts, unless otherwise specified. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated refer
32、ences, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. IEC 60050-461, International Electrotechnical Vocabulary Part 461: Electric cables IEC 60502-1, Power cables with extruded insulation and their accessories for rated voltages from 1 kV (Um= 1,2 kV) up to 30 kV (
33、Um= 36 kV) Part 1: Cables for rated voltages of 1 kV (Um= 1,2 kV) and 3 kV (Um=3,6 kV) 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in IEC 60050-461, together with the following, apply. 3.1 median value when several test results have been obtained and or
34、dered in an increasing (or decreasing) succession, the median value is the middle value if the number of available values is odd, and the mean of the two middle values if the number is even 4 Test values Full test conditions (such as temperatures, durations, etc.) and full test requirements are not
35、specified in the particular parts of IEC 60811. It is intended that they should be specified by the standard dealing with the relevant type of cable. Rounding rules as specified in IEC 60502-1 shall be used, unless specified in particular parts. Any test requirements which are given in the particula
36、r parts of IEC 60811 may be modified by the relevant cable standard to suit the needs of a particular type of cable. 5 Applicability Conditioning values and testing parameters are specified where appropriate for the most common types of insulating and sheathing compounds and of cables. BS EN 60811-1
37、00:201260811-100 IEC:2012 7 Where not specified in particular parts, a minimum stabilization time of 16 h shall elapse after extrusion or application as appropriate, before testing. Unless otherwise specified in particular parts, testing shall be carried out at room temperature: (23 5) C. 6 Type tes
38、ts and other tests The test methods described in the particular parts of IEC 60811 are primarily intended to be used for type tests. In certain tests, where there are essential differences between the conditions for type tests and those for more frequent tests, such as routine tests, these differenc
39、es are indicated. 7 Test report The test report shall contain the following minimum information: a) The type and identification of the tested material and of the cable from which it comes. b) Reference to the particular part and test method of IEC 60811, where alternatives exist. c) Test conditions,
40、 for example duration, temperature. d) The date of the test. e) The result of the test and associated specified requirements. f) State compliance or non-compliance to specified requirements. Any deviation from the specified procedure shall be recorded. BS EN 60811-100:2012 8 60811-100 IEC:2012 Annex
