32、eneric technical requirements that may be referenced by individual telecommunications wire specifications covering products intended for normal outside plant use. The parameters covered provide material, construction, and performance requirements. Because this Standard does not cover all details of
33、individual wire design, it cannot be used as a single document for procurement of product. It is intended to be used in conjunction with an individual product specification that provides complete design details for the specific wire type and designates the applicable performance requirements. Such i
34、ndividual wire specifications may be prepared either by the user or the manufacturer. The specification deSignated for procurement is at the option of the user. 1.2 SCOPE: This Standard covers mechanical and electrical requirements for filled, polyolefin insulated, copper conductor, buried telecommu
35、nications wire. It provides alternative choices for type of insulation, type of filling compound, sheath design (shielding materials, single or double jackets, and jacket type and thickness) and armoring. Buried wire is used to extend buried telephone plant from the distribution cable to the subscri
36、ber. 1.3 OPTIONS AND INFORMATION: This Standard is arranged in Sections covering specific areas of wire requirements and may be referenced as complete Sections or as individual paragraphs. Paragraphs of this specification where the user may specify a particular option are listed below: 3.2 Insulatio
37、n Type 4.4.1 Filling Compound Type 4.5 Flooding Compound 4.7 Rip Cord(s) 5.1 Shielding System 6.1 Inner Jacket 6.2.1 Outer Jacket (Material Type) 6.3 Armoring Systems 7.13 Fusing Coordination Test 8.6 Flammability Test 9.1 Identification and Marking 9.3 Packaging AN51/1CEA 5-86-634-2011 To assist th
38、e user in the selection of products and to avoid possible misunderstandings between the manufacturer and user, it is suggested that a check off sheet similar to that shown in Informative Annex A be utilized. 1.4 UNITS AND TOLERANCES: SI units are specified throughout this Standard except for conduct
39、or size. Approximate US equivalents and Fahrenheit temperatures are included for information only. Unless otherwise specified, the rounding-off method of ASTM E 29 shall be used for determining measurement tolerances. 1.5 REFERENCES: All documents referenced herein shall be as listed in Table 1 with
40、 issues and/or dates as indicated. 1.6 QUALITY ASSURANCE: It is the responsibility of the manufacturer to establish a quality assurance system consistent with ANSI/ASQ Q9000, ISO 9000, TL 9000, or an alternate system acceptable to the user. When the user requires a specific quality assurance program
41、 and/or special testing procedures, agreement between the user and the manufacturer should be reached before the order is placed. Requirements shall be met on every length of completed wire as assured by quality control methods or by 100 % testing. The term “completed wire“ refers to a continuous le
42、ngth of finished wire resulting from the last jacketing operation. Properties that shall be tested on 100 percent of the wire lengths produced are listed below by paragraph number: 6.1 .2 Inner Jacket Thickness Requirements 6.2.2 Outer Jacket Thickness Requirements 7.3 Average Mutual Capacitance 7.9
43、 Conductor-to-Conductor DC Proof Test 7.10 Core-to-Shield DC Proof Test 7.14 Continuity of Metallic Wire Elements 1.7 SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS: Materials in the wire shall comply with current industry standards and applicable federal, state, or local laws and regulations. Materials used in the construc
44、tion of wires covered by this document shall comply with the European Commission Directive 2002l95/EC on the Restriction of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (the RoHS Directive) as amended by 2005/618/EC and 20051717/EC. The user of this Standard is cautioned to ob
45、serve any applicable health or safety regulations and rules relative to the manufacture and use of wire made in conformity with this Standard. This Standard hereafter assumes that manufacture, testing, installation, and maintenance of wires defined by this Standard will be performed only by properly
46、 trained personnel using suitable equipment and employing appropriate safety precautions. 2 AN81/1CEA 8-86-634-2011 SECTION 2 CONDUCTORS 2.1 REQUIREMENTS: Each conductor shall be a solid wire of commercially pure annealed copper and shall meet the requirements of ASTM B 3 except that requirements fo
47、r “Dimensions and Permissible Variations“ are not applicable and elongation requirements are superseded by this Standard. The conductor sizes shall be 19,22, or 24 American Wire Gauge (AWG) per ASTM B 258. The nominal diameters are stated in Table 2-1 for reference only: Table 2-1 CONDUCTOR DIAMETER
48、 Conductor Size Nominal Diameter (AWG) In (mm) 19 0.0359 (0.912) 22 0.0253 (0.643) 24 0.0201 (0.511 ) When tested in accordance with ASTM E 8, the minimum conductor elongation in completed wire shall be as shown in Table 2-2: Table 2-2 CONDUCTOR ELONGATION Conductor Minimum Size (AWG) Elongation (%)
49、 19 22 22 20 24 16 2.2 FACTORY JOINTS: Prior to insulating, factory jOints in conductors may be either butt brazed, using a silver alloy solder and nonacid flux, or butt welded. Joints in uninsulated conductors shall be free from lumps and sharp projections. Subsequent to insulating, solder sleeves may also be used. The tensile strength of any conductor containing a joint shall not be less than 90 % of the strength of an adjacent length of conductor outside the joint area. SECTION 3 CONDUCTOR INSULATION 3.1 INSULATION MATERIAL: The conductor shall be insulated with suitable polyolefin ma
