23、IVE WORKING TELESCOPIC STICKS AND TELESCOPIC MEASURING STICKS 1 Scope This International Standard covers telescopic sticks and telescopic measuring sticks to be used for live working on a.c. or d.c. electrical installations at 1 000 V and above for a.c. and 1 500 V and above for d.c. The telescopic
24、sticks are designed to accept attachments that meet appropriate live working standards and, together with these attachments, may be used to perform mechanical work on live parts at a distance. Telescopic sticks are also designed to accept diagnostic devices that meet appropriate live working standar
25、ds and are used to make the diagnostic devices reach parts of an installation to be tested. Telescopic measuring sticks, or tele- scopic sticks equipped with graduations, are used to measure distances to or between live parts. NOTE Under certain circumstances, the telescopic sticks covered by this s
26、tandard can be used for installing portable earthing or earthing and short-circuiting equipment if the mechanical stresses during use are lower than the rated values. The tools (telescopic sticks and telescopic measuring sticks) covered by this standard are for use under dry conditions but could als
27、o be used under very humid conditions, using appropriate working procedures. Telescopic hook sticks are not covered by this standard. Telescopic bonding sticks and any other speciality telescopic sticks designed at the request of users are not covered by this standard. 2 Normative references The fol

The too
44、ls (telescopic sticks and telescopic measuring sticks) covered by this standard are classified in two categories according to their mechanical characteristics. These categories are: Category 1 tools manufactured from light and/or standard tubes and not intended to be used under tension/compression a
45、nd/or torque; Category 2 tools manufactured from reinforced tubes and intended to be used under tension/compression and/or torque. Normally telescopic measuring sticks are of Category 1. Telescopic sticks are of Category 2. 5 Requirements 5.1 Safety Tools which conform with this standard shall be de
46、signed and manufactured to be safe, provided they are used by skilled (trained) personnel, in accordance with safe methods of work and the instructions for use. 5.2 General Shape(s) of all sections of the tool shall allow telescoping but need not be the same nor cylindrical. Any attachments or end f
47、ittings shall not degrade the electrical and mechanical properties of the tool and shall comply with IEC 60832. Except for the diameters, the raw material used for manufacturing of the tip section with circular cross-section shall comply with the requirements of IEC 60855. NOTE The raw material for
48、manufacturing of the tip section with non-circular cross-section should meet the requirements of tip section with equivalent circular cross-section and equivalent wall thickness.
