15、 (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and
16、 electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmenta
17、l and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or
18、agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested National Committees. 3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for internat
19、ional use and are published in the form of standards, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense. 4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International Standards transparently to the maximum exte
20、nt possible in their national and regional standards. Any divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equ
21、ipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards. 6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Sta
22、ndard IEC 61942 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 78: Live working. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 78/220+220A/FDIS 78/227/RVD Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indica
23、ted in the above table. Annexes A, B and C form an integral part of this standard. Annexes D, E, F, G and H are for information only.BS IEC 61942:1997 BSI 25 April 2002 5 INTRODUCTION This International Standard was established on the basis of IEC 60903 on insulating gloves. The same quality level o
24、f insulation was required as basic principle. The purpose was to combine in one unique glove the insulating properties of elastomer gloves and the mechanical properties of leather gloves which are commonly used to protect the insulating gloves. For the time being, only three classes of gloves are co
25、vered due to the lack of data and practice for high voltages. Some difficulties were observed when combining electrical and mechanical properties. It seems to be difficult to obtain flexible gloves providing adequate mechanical protection.BS IEC 61942:1997 6 BSI 25 April 2002 LIVE WORKING GLOVES AND
26、 MITTS WITH MECHANICAL PROTECTION 1 Scope This International Standard is applicable to insulating gloves and mitts made of plastic or elastomer with appropriate mechanical protection for use without over-gloves. Unless otherwise stated, the use of the term glove only includes gloves and mitts. The g
27、loves are intended to be used for working live or close to live parts at nominal voltages up to 7 500 V a.c. or 11 250 V d.c. For other voltages information is not yet available. 1.1 Classes of gloves Three classes of gloves, differing in electrical characteristics, are provided and are designated c
28、lass 00, class 0, class 1 (see annex D). For other classes such as class 2, class 3 and class 4 additional data will be necessary. 1.2 Categories of gloves Five categories of gloves, differing in properties related to acid, oil, ozone and a combination of all are provided and designated categories A
29、, H, Z and P respectively, and also extreme low temperature designated as category C. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. At the time of publication, the editions indi
30、cated were valid. All normative documents are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent edition of the normative documents indicated below.
