17、 INTEGRITY Part 1: Test method for fire with shock at a temperature of at least 830 C for cables of rated voltage up to and including 0,6/1,0 kV and with an overall diameter exceeding 20 mm FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardizatio

18、n comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes Internationa

19、l Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in thi

20、s preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two

21、organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the

22、form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpr

23、etation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or

24、 regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of thi

25、s publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or ind

26、irect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for t

27、he correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 60331-1 has been pre

28、pared by IEC technical committee 20: Electric cables. This first edition of IEC 60331-1 cancels and replaces IEC 60331-12 (2002) and IEC 60331-31 (2002) to form one single standard. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 20/1049/FDIS 20/1053/RVD Full inf

29、ormation on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table.

30、in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. It has the status of a group safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104. A list of all the parts in the IEC 60331 series, under the general title Tests for electric cables under fire conditions circuit integrity, can be found on the IEC web

31、site. The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until the maintenance result date indicated on the IEC web site under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be reconfirmed, withdrawn, rep

32、laced by a revised edition, or amended. SANS 60331-1:2009This s tandard may only be used and printed by approved subscription and freemailing clients of the SABS . 6 60331-1 IEC:2009 INTRODUCTION IEC 60331 consists of the following parts under the general title: Tests for electric cables under fire

33、conditions Circuit integrity: Part 1: Test method for fire with shock at a temperature of at least 830 C for cables of rated voltage up to and including 0,6/1,0 kV and with an overall diameter exceeding 20 mm Part 2: Test method for fire with shock at a temperature of at least 830 C for cables of ra

34、ted voltage up to and including 0,6/1,0 kV and with an overall diameter not exceeding 20 mm Part 3: Test method for fire with shock at a temperature of at least 830 C for cables of rated voltage up to and including 0,6/1,0 kV tested in a metal enclosure Part 11: Apparatus Fire alone at a flame tempe

35、rature of at least 750 C Part 21: Procedures and requirements Cables of rated voltage up to and including 0,6/1,0 kV Part 23: Procedures and requirements Electric data cables Part 25: Procedures and requirements Optical fibre cables NOTE Parts 21, 23 and 25 relate to fire-only conditions at a flame

36、temperature of at least 750 C. Since its first edition (1970), IEC 60331 has been extended and has introduced a range of test apparatus in order that a test may be carried out on large and small power, control, data and optical fibre cables. Successful tests carried out in accordance with this stand

37、ard will enable an identification to be marked on the product. SANS 60331-1:2009This s tandard may only be used and printed by approved subscription and freemailing clients of the SABS .60331-1 IEC:2009 7 TESTS FOR ELECTRIC CABLES UNDER FIRE CONDITIONS CIRCUIT INTEGRITY Part 1: Test method for fire

38、with shock at a temperature of at least 830 C for cables of rated voltage up to and including 0,6/1,0 kV and with an overall diameter exceeding 20 mm 1 Scope This part of IEC 60331 specifies the test apparatus and procedure and gives the performance requirements, including recommended flame applicat

39、ion times, for low voltage power cables of rated voltage up to and including 0,6/1,0 kV and control cables with a rated voltage which are required to maintain circuit integrity when subject to fire and mechanical shock under specified conditions. It is intended for use when testing cables of greater

40、 than 20 mm overall diameter. NOTE 1 Cables of smaller diameter should be tested using the apparatus, procedure and requirements of IEC 60331-2. This standard describes the means of test specimen preparation, the continuity checking arrangements, the electrical testing procedure, the method of burni

41、ng the cables and the method of shock production, and gives requirements for evaluating test results. NOTE 2 Although the scope is restricted to cables with rated voltage up to and including 0,6/1,0 kV, the procedure may be used, with the agreement of the manufacturer and the purchaser, for cables w

42、ith rated voltage up to and including 3,3 kV, provided that suitable fuses are used. Annex A provides the method of verification of the burner and control system used for the test. Requirements are stated for an identification that may optionally be marked on the cable to signify compliance with thi

43、s standard. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.
