Bibliography

Gives a summary of test methods that are used to determine the ignitability of electrotechnical products or materials from which they are formed.

IEC/TR 60695-1-21:2008 provides a summary of test methods that are used to determine the ignitability of electrotechnical products or materials from which they are formed. It also includes test methods in which, by design, ignitability is a significant quantifiable characteristic. This basic safety publication is intended for use by technical committees in the preparation of standards in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 104 and ISO/IEC Guide 51.
