EN 3475-506:20074 1 Scope This standard specifies a method of verifying the continuity of plating on strands which are: either checked before stranding or screening, or checked after stranding or screening It shall be used together with EN 3475-100. 2
17、 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 3475-100, Aerospace seri
18、es Cables, electrical, aircraft use Test methods Part 100: General. ASTM B 33-81, Standard specification for tinned soft or annealed copper wire for electrical purposes. 1)ASTM B 298-99, Standard specification for silver-coated soft or annealed copper wire. 1)ASTM B 355-95, Standard specification fo
19、r nickel-coated soft or annealed copper wire. 1)3 Preparation of specimens 3.1 General The ASTM B 33 or ASTM B 298 or ASTM B 355 plating continuity test method applies to single end wires taken before stranding or before screening. Thus the applicability of the polysulfide test is restricted by the
20、ASTM in recognition of the abrasion to the wire inherent in the stranding or in the screening process. 3.2 Strands before stranding or screening 3.2.1 Copper strands Prepare three strands at least 150 mm long as specimens and carefully straighten them by hand. Degrease the strands without damaging t
21、hem and wipe them with a clean dry cloth. After cleaning, the strands shall not be touched with bare fingers. The length of the specimen which is immersed shall be at least 110 mm. 3.2.2 Copper-clad aluminum strands Prepare three strands at least 150 mm long as specimens. Degrease the strands withou
22、t damaging them and wipe them with a clean dry cloth. After cleaning, the strands shall not be touched with bare fingers. 1) Published by: American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), 100 Barr Harbor Drive, PO Box C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959, USA. EN 3475-506:20075 By using gloves,
23、wind five turns of each strand on a mandrel which the diameter is about 12 times the strand diameter. NOTE Due to hardness differences between, aluminium, copper and coating (particularly nickel) materials and possible associated drawbacks during strand drawings after plating, turns are necessary to
24、 reveal possible weakness. 3.3 Strands after stranding or screening 3.3.1 General Due to the above restriction by the ASTM in recognition of the abrasion to the wire inherent in the stranding or in the screening process, the following preparation of specimens apply when testing stranded or screened
25、product: 1) Unilay or Concentric constructions to be tested as the whole conductor. 2) Two members from each layer of rope constructions to be tested after they have been carefully removed from the finished rope. 3) Screen to be tested as whole conductor after it has been carefully separated from ca
26、ble jacket and from inner core(s). 3.3.2 Copper conductors or copper screens Prepare three samples at least 150 mm long as specimens. Degrease the specimens without damaging them and wipe them with a clean dry cloth. After cleaning, the specimens shall not be touched with bare fingers. The length of
27、 the specimen which is immersed shall be at least 110 mm. 3.3.3 Copper-clad aluminum conductors Prepare three samples at least 150 mm long as specimens. Degrease the specimens without damaging them and wipe them with a clean dry cloth. After cleaning, the specimens shall not be touched with bare fin
28、gers. By using gloves, wind five turns of each conductor on a mandrel which diameter is about 12 times the conductor diameter. 4 Method Place the specimens for 30 s in a sodium polysulphide solution which has a density of 1,142 g/cm3at 20 C, then wash them carefully in distilled water. In addition,
29、for silver plating, the samples shall then be immersed for 15 s in a solution of hydrochloric acid which has a density of 1,088 g/cm3at 20 C. The specimens shall then be washed carefully again in distilled water. 5 Requirements Examination shall occur immediately after the solution cycle. There shal
30、l be no adherent or distinctly visible black spots when examined with the naked eye. Any blackening occurring less than 15 mm from each end shall be disregarded.
