17、NDITIONS CIRCUIT INTEGRITY 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 FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization

18、 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 International

19、 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 this

20、 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 o

21、rganizations. 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 f

22、orm 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 misinterpre

23、tation 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 this

25、 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 indi

26、rect, 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 th

27、e 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 60331-3 has been prep

28、ared by IEC technical committee 20: Electric cables. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 20/1051/FDIS 20/1055/RVD Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table.

35、cedures 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 temperature of at least 750 C. Since its first edition (1970), IEC 60331 has been extended and has introduced a range of test app

36、aratus in order that a test may be carried out on large and small power, control, data and optical fibre cables. IEC 60331-3 introduces apparatus and a procedure to allow cables to be tested in a metal enclosure under conditions of mechanical shock as well as fire at temperature of at least 830 C. S

38、d voltage up to and including 0,6/1,0 kV tested in a metal enclosure 1 Scope This part of IEC 60331 specifies the test apparatus and procedure and gives the performance requirements, including recommended flame application times, for low-voltage power cables of rated voltage up to and including 0,6/

39、1,0 kV, and control cables with a rated voltage which are required to maintain circuit integrity when tested in a metal enclosure and when subject to fire and mechanical shock under specified conditions. This standard describes the means of sample preparation, the continuity checking arrangements, t

40、he electrical testing procedure, the method of burning the cables and the method of shock production and gives requirements for evaluating test results. NOTE All cables assessed by this method should first have been assessed against the test of IEC 60331-1 or IEC 60331-2. Such performance may be rec

41、ognized by the marking according to Clause 11 of IEC 60331-1 or Clause 11 of IEC 60331-2. Annex A provides the method of verification of the burner and control system used for the test. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
