The objective of this Standards is to provide a standard test procedure to determine the suitability of non heat-dissipating components, equipment or other articles for use and/or storage under conditions of high temperature and for which the subjection to a sudden change of temperature has no detrimental effect. This procedure is for specimens which are subjected to an elevated temperature for a time long enough for the specimen to achieve temperature stability.

To provide a standard test procedure to determine the suitability of non heat-dissipating components, equipment or other articles for use and/or storage under conditions of high temperature and for which the subjection to a sudden change of temperature has no detrimental effect. This procedure is for specimens which are subjected to an elevated temperature for a time long enough for the specimen to achieve temperature stability. In this procedure, the test duration is normally measured from the time when the specimen achieves temperature stability. For cases where this does not apply, see clause 1 of the introduction.
