For diam

16、eters under0.0100 in. (0.2540 mm), the wire shall not vary from thespecified diameter by more than plus and minus 0.0001 in.(0.0025 mm), and for diameters of 0.0100 in. and over the wireshall not vary from the specified diameter by more than plusand minus 1 %, expressed to the nearest 0.0001 in. (0.

17、001 mm).5.5 FinishThe wire shall be free of all imperfections notconsistent with the best commercial practice.6. Test Methods6.1 Tensile Strength and ElongationNo test for tensilestrength shall be required.6.1.1 Determine the elongation of wire whose nominaldiameter is larger than 0.0808 in. (2.052

18、mm) in diameter as thepermanent increase in length, expressed in percent of theoriginal length, due to the breaking of the wire in tension,measured between gage marks placed originally 10 in. (254mm) apart upon the test specimen (see Explanatory Note 4).The elongation of wire whose nominal diameter

19、is 0.0808 in.(2.052 mm) and under may be determined as described aboveor by measurements made between the jaws of the testingmachine. When the latter method is used, the zero length shallbe the distance between the jaws at the start of the tension testand be as near 10 in. (254 mm) as practicable, a

20、nd the finallength shall be the distance between the jaws at the time ofrupture. The fracture shall be between gage marks in the caseof specimens so marked or between the jaws of the testingmachine and not closer than 1 in. (25.4 mm) to either gagemark or either jaw.6.2 ResistivityDetermine the elec

21、trical resistivity of thematerial in accordance with Test Method B 193 (see Explana-tory Note 5). The purchaser may accept certification that thewire was drawn from stock meeting the International Standardfor Annealed Copper instead of resistivity tests on the finishedwire.6.3 Dimensional Measuremen

The average of the three measurements shall determinecompliance with the requirements.6.4 Surface FinishMake a surface-finish inspection withthe unaided eye (normal specta

29、cles acceptable).7. Conformance Criteria (see Explanatory Note 6)7.1 Any lot of wire, the samples of which comply with theconformance criteria of this section, shall be considered ascomplying with the requirements of Section 5. Individualproduction units that fail to meet one or more of the require-

30、ments shall be rejected. Failure of a sample group from a lot tomeet one or more of the following criteria shall constitutecause for rejection of the lot. The conformance criteria for eachof the prescribed properties given in Section 5 are as follows:7.1.1 ElongationThe lot shall be considered confo

31、rmingif the average elongation of the four specimens is not less thanthe appropriate elongation value in Table 1 plus 2.5 percentagepoints; however any individual production unit, the specimenfrom which has an elongation less than the appropriateelongation value in Table 1, shall be rejected.7.1.1.1

32、 The lot shall be considered to have failed to meet theelongation conformance criterion if the average of the fourspecimens is less than the elongation in Table 1 plus 2.5percentage points and elongation of any of the individualspecimens is less than the value in Table 1.7.1.1.2 If the average of th

33、e four specimens is less than theelongation in Table 1 plus 2.5 percentage points and theelongation of each of the individual specimens is equal to ormore than the value in Table 1, six additional specimens fromsix production units, other than the four originally sampledshall be tested. The lot shal

34、l be considered conforming if theelongation of each of the ten specimens is not less than theappropriate elongation value in Table 1, and the average of theten specimens is not less than that value plus 2.5 percentagepoints. The lot shall be considered to have failed to meet theelongation requiremen

35、t if any of the ten specimens is less thanthe appropriate elongation value in Table 1 or if the average ofthe ten specimens is less than that value plus 2.5 percentagepoints.7.1.2 ResistivityThe electrical resistivity of each of thefour specimens shall conform to the requirements of 5.3.Failure to m

36、eet these requirements shall constitute failure tomeet the resistivity conformance criterion.7.1.3 DimensionsThe dimensions of the first sample(Table 2) shall conform to the requirements of 5.4. If there areno failures, the lot conforms to this requirement. If there arefailures but the number of the

37、se does not exceed the allowabledefect number, c2(Table 2), for the respective number of unitsin the sample, a second sample equal to n2shall be taken andthe total defects of the n1plus n2units shall not exceed theallowable defect number, c2. Failure to meet this requirementshall constitute failure

38、to meet the dimensional conformationalcriterion.7.1.4 Surface FinishThe surface finish of the samplestaken in accordance with Table 3 shall conform to the require-ments of 5.5. The number of units in the sample showingsurface defects not consistent with commercial practice shallnot exceed the allowa

39、ble defect number, c,inTable 3. Failureto meet this requirement shall constitute failure to meet thesurface-finish conformance criterion.7.1.5 PackagingConformance to the packaging require-ments specified by the purchaser shall be determined inaccordance with Table 3. The number of units in the samp

40、leshowing nonconformance to the requirement shall not exceedthe allowable defect number, c,inTable 3. Failure to meet thisrequirement shall constitute failure to meet the packagingconformance criterion.8. Density8.1 For the purpose of calculating mass per unit length,cross-sections, etc., the densit

41、y of the copper shall be taken as8.89 g/cm3(0.32117 lb/in.3) at 20C (see Explanatory Note 7).9. Inspection9.1 General (see Explanatory Note 6)All tests and in-spections shall be made at the place of manufacture unlessagreed upon between the manufacturer and the purchaser at thetime of purchase. The

42、manufacturer shall afford the inspectorrepresenting the purchaser all reasonable facilities to satisfyhim that the material is being furnished in accordance with thisspecification.9.1.1 Unless otherwise agreed upon between the purchaserand the manufacturer, conformance of the wire to the variousrequ

43、irements listed in Section 5 shall be determined on samplestaken from each lot of wire presented for acceptance.9.1.2 The manufacturer shall, if requested prior to inspec-tion, certify that all wire in the lot was made under suchconditions that the product as a whole conforms to therequirements of t
