Gives the methods to test to determine the bending tests used in analogue and digital communication systems to: bending around a test mandrel (clause 4); repeated bending (clause 5); repeated flexing in service (clause 6); flexing in service (clause 6); bending around rollers or bows during installation (clause 8); measure the stiffness (clause 9) of such a cable; and kind test (clause 10).
