It
19、 is to be read in conjunction with Part 3-1 of EN 50289, which contains essential provisions for its application. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate plac

22、For the purposes of this European Standard the definitions of EN 50290-1-2 apply. 4 Test method 4. I Tensile strength and elongation after break for metals. 4.1 .I Principle The test determines the maximum load and the plastic extension of the solid conductor with high elongation. (e.g. aluminium, c
23、opper) 4.1 -2 Procedure At least five test specimens shall be tested in accordance with the method specified in ISOIR 402 with a rate of separation of the jaws of 1 O0 mm f 20 mmhin. ) At draft stage. -5- EN 50289-3-2:2001 4.2 Tensile strength and elongation at break for metals 4.2.1 Principle The t
24、est determines the percentage elongation at the time of break of a solid conductor with low elongation of about 1% (e.g. steel). 4.2.2 Test equipment An extensometer or other device suitable for measuring elongation of a gauge length of 250 mm shall be used. The equipment shall have a resolution not
25、 worse than 0,25 mm. 4.2.3 Procedure At least five test specimens shall tested. Each of them shall successively be fitted in the jaws of the testing machine and loaded to 10 percent of the minimum specified breaking load. An extensometer or other suitable device shall be attached to the test specime
26、n to measure the extension. The elongation versus the load shall be observed while applying a tensile load to the specimen. The reading of elongation and tensile load at break shall be recorded. The rate of separation of the jaws shall not be greater than 100 rnm f 20 mm/min. Tests in which the frac
27、ture occurs within 25 mm apart from the jaws or extensometer clamps shall be disregarded and a repeat test shall be carried out 4.2.4 Expression of results The elongation at break shall be expressed as a percentage of the original sample length. Tensile load shall be expressed in N/rnm2. 5 Test repo
28、rt The test report shall include: - temperature, - sample length, - - elongation of each of the specimens, breaking load for each of the specimens.
