33、3) at 20C (Explanatory Note 6).10. Mass10.1 The mass per unit length and electrical resistance of aunit length of stranded conductor are a function of the length oflay. The approximate mass per unit length and electricalresistance may be determined using the standard incrementsshown in Table 2. When

34、 greater accuracy is desired, theincrement based on the specific lay of the conductor may becalculated (Explanatory Note 7).10.2 The approximate mass per unit length of completedconductors are given in Table 3 for information only, andinclude mass per unit lengths of core calculated on the basis of4

35、37 lb/in.21000 ft, using approximate core areas.11. Requirements for Wires11.1 The purchaser shall designate if the type of wire is tincoated, or not (see section 11.2).11.2 Before stranding, the copper wire used shall meet all ofthe requirements of the following specifications that areapplicable to

36、 its type: Specifications B3 and B33.12. Variation in Area12.1 The area of the copper cross-section of the completedconductor shall be not less than 98 % of the calculated areagiven in Table 1. The area of cross section of a conductor shallbe considered to be the sum of the cross-sectional areas of

37、itscomponent wires at any section when measured perpendicu-larly to their individual axes. Alternatively, the cross-section ofa conductor may be calculated by the weight method asspecified in Test Method B263. In case of dispute, Test MethodB263 shall be the referee.13. Inspection13.1 All tests and

38、inspection shall be made at the place ofmanufacture, unless otherwise especially agreed upon betweenthe manufacturer and the purchaser at the time of purchase. Themanufacturer shall afford the inspector representing the pur-chaser all reasonable facilities, to satisfy him that the materialis being f

39、urnished in accordance with this specification.14. Packaging and Package Marking14.1 Package sizes for conductors shall be agreed uponbetween the manufacturer and the purchaser in the placing ofindividual orders.14.2 The conductors shall be protected against damage inordinary handling and shipping.

40、If heavy wood lagging isrequired, it shall be specified by the purchaser at the time ofplacing the order.14.3 The net mass, length (or lengths, if more than onelength is included in the package), size, kind of conductor,purchase order number, reel number, and any other markingsrequired by the purcha

41、se order shall be marked on a tagattached to the end of the conductor inside the package. Thesame information, together with the manufacturers serialnumber (if any) and all shipping marks required by thepurchaser, shall appear on the outside of each package.15.

Requirementsfor non-cored constructions will be found in the following specifications:Specifica

47、tions B8, B172, B173, B174, B496, B784, B787/B787M, B835,and B902.NOTE 2For definitions of terms relating to conductors, referenceshould be made to IEEE Standard 100 and Terminology B354.NOTE 3If service applications for conductors of this type are unusualas to flexibility requirements, variation in

48、 the construction may bedesirable. Details concerning such should be arranged between themanufacturer and the purchaser at the time of placing the order.NOTE 4Fiber cores are available in commercial sizes. It has beenfound impracticable to prescribe fiber cores made to special diameters. Itis permis

49、sible for the manufacturer to use a fiber core which is slightlyoversize or to build up a slightly undersized core with servings of suitablematerial to bring it up to the diameter required for compliance with 4.2.NOTE 5Wires unlaid from conductors manifestly will have differentphysical properties from those of the wires when prepared for cabling, onaccount of the deformation brought about by laying and again straighten-ing for test.NOTE 6The value of density of copper is in accordance with theInternational Annealed Copper Standard.
