36、ch measurements are made is to be nished, smooth, and clean wherever it is to touch any part of a measuring device or tool. While measurements are being made, the conduit and the air around it are to be in thermal equilibrium with one another at a temperature of 23.0 2.0C (73.4 3.6F). All of the ave

37、rage and individual outside diameter measurements are to be performed both at the center and at least one end of the conduit. 6.3 The measurements from which the average outside diameters of a length of nished conduit are to be determined are to be made by means of: a) A machinists micrometer calipe

38、r that has a at-ended spindle, a at anvil, and is calibrated to read directly to at least 0.001 inch or 0.01 mm; b) A vernier caliper calibrated to read directly to at least 0.001 inch or 0.01 mm; c) A vernier wrap tape, calibrated to read directly to at least 0.001 inch or 0.01 mm; NOVEMBER 22, 201

40、accurate to within 1 percent of its tape and 0.001 inch of its diameter. 6.4 When differences arise between measuring techniques, the vernier wrap tape is to act as the referee for determining compliance with the requirements for average outside diameters. 6.5 When using a tapered sleeve gauge, the

41、entrance and exit diameters of the gauge shall correspond to the maximum and minimum outside diameters for the trade size of conduit being measured. 6.6 When using a sleeve window gauge, the window shall extend beyond the two scribed marks which shall represent the minimum and maximum permitted diam

42、eters. 6.7 The measurements from which the minimum and maximum outside diameters of nished conduit are to be determined are to be made by means of: a) A machinists micrometer caliper that has a at-ended spindle, a at anvil, and is calibrated to read directly to at least 0.001 inch or 0.01 mm; b) A v

43、ernier caliper calibrated to read directly to at least 0.001 inch or 0.01 mm; or c) An out-of-roundness gauge accurate to 0.001 inch or 0.01 mm. 6.8 When differences arise between measuring techniques, the vernier caliper is to act as the referee for determining compliance with the requirements for

44、minimum and maximum outside diameters. 6.9 The measurements from which the wall thicknesses of a length of nished conduit are to be determined are to be made by means of a machinists micrometer caliper that has a ratchet, a at-ended spindle, and a hemispherical anvil. The caliper shall be calibrated

45、 to read directly to at least 0.001 inch or 0.01 mm. 6.10 When deemed necessary, equivalent methods, tools, and measurement techniques shall be used to determine compliance with the above dimensional requirements only when they are accurate to within 0.001 inch or 0.01 mm. 6.11 To determine the aver

46、age outside diameter when using a micrometer caliper or vernier caliper, at least four measurements (every 45 degrees) are required at each location to make certain that the largest and smallest diameters are found. The average of all the recorded diameters is to be determined for the trade size of

47、conduit involved. The average of the recorded diameters shall not differ from the average diameter in Table 6.1 by more than the specied tolerances. 6.12 To determine the average outside diameter when using vernier wrap tape, place the vernier wrap tape around the conduit making sure that it is at r

48、ight angles to the conduit axis and is at against the conduit surface. The observed reading shall not differ from the average diameter in Table 6.1 by more than the specied tolerances.

49、 FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL 6.13 To determine the average outside diameter when using a tapered sleeve gauge or sleeve window gauge, cut the end of the conduit square and remove burrs. Insert the conduit into the sleeve gauge and observe the position of the end with respect to the ends of the tapered sleeve gauge or the position of the end with regard to the minimum and maximum scribed marks of the sleeve window gauge. 6.14 When using
