SECTION ONE - GENERAL
1 Object and scope
2 Characteristics of the test installation to be
subjected to the tests
3 State of the test installation
4 Shape of the impulse waves
5 Calibration of impulse generator
SECTION TWO - WITHSTAND TESTS
6 Application of the impulses at the level specified
SECTION THREE - TESTS ABOVE THE WITHSTAND LEVEL
7 Application of impulse test above the specified withstand
level and omission of power-frequency test
8 Procedure for tests above the withstand level

Lays down the conditions and procedure for carrying out impulse tests on cables and their accessories, with a view to rationalizing the practice in different laboratories, and thus to facilitate valid comparisons between the results obtained on cables made to different specifications. Notes: 1.This publication should be read in conjunction with EN 60060 and 60141. 2.For voltage measurements with sphere-gaps, see EN 60052.
