CONTAINED IN VOL. 10.01, 2017 Defines procedures for testing crosslinked insulations and jackets for wire and cable.

1.1These test methods cover procedures for testing crosslinked insulations and jackets for wire and cable. To determine the test to be made on the particular insulation or jacket, refer to the product specification for that type. These test methods do not apply to the class of products known as flexible cords.

1.2In many instances the insulation or jacket cannot be tested unless it has been formed around a conductor or cable. Therefore, tests are done on insulated or jacketed wire or cable in these test methods solely to determine the relevant property of the insulation or jacket and not to test the conductor or completed cable.

1.3The procedures appear in the following sections:

Sections

AC and DC Voltage Withstand Tests

22 to 29

Capacitance and Dissipation Factor Tests

38 to 44

Cold Bend

128

127

Horizontal Flame Test

100 to 104

Insulation Resistance Tests on Completed Cable

111 to 115

Ozone Resistance Test

87 to 99

Partial-Discharge Test

58 to 64

Physical Tests of Insulation and Jacket Compounds

5 to 16

Surface Resistivity Test

116 to 120

Track Resistance Test

129 to 132

U-Bend Discharge Test

121 to 125

Water Absorption Test

Water Absorption Test on Fibrous Coverings

105 to 110


1.4Whenever two sets of values are presented, in different units, the values in the first set are the standard, while those in the parentheses are for information only.

1.5This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific hazards see Section 4.
