Summary of Test Methods4.1 This st

7、andard provides eight different test methods forthe measurement of thickness of solid electrical insulationmaterials. The test methods (identified as Methods A throughH) employ different micrometers that exert various pressuresfor varying times upon specimens of different geometries.Table 1 and Tabl

8、e 2 display basic differences of each testmethod and identify methods applicable for use on variouscategories of materials.5. Significance and Use5.1 Some electrical properties, such as dielectric strength,vary with the thickness of the material. Determination ofcertain properties, such as relative

9、permittivity (dielectricconstant) and volume resistivity, usually require a knowledgeof the thickness. Design and construction of electrical machin-ery require that the thickness of insulation be known.6. Apparatus6.1 Apparatus A Machinists Micrometer Caliper3withCalibrated Ratchet or Friction Thimb

28、l Considerations for Care and Useof Each of the Various Pieces of Apparatus forThickness Measurements)7.1 Good testing practices require clean anvil and presserfoot surfaces for any micrometer instrument. Prior to calibra-tion or thickness measurements, clean such surfaces by insert-ing a piece of s

29、mooth, clean bond paper between the anvil andthe presser foot and slowly moving the bond paper between thesurfaces. During measurements, check the zero setting fre-quently. Failure to repeat the zero setting may be evidence ofdirt on the surfaces.NOTE 1Avoid pulling any edge of the bond paper betwee

33、 on thesurfaces.7.2 The parallelism requirements for machinists microme-ters demand that observed differences of readings on a pair ofscrew-thread-pitch wires or a pair of standard 6-mm nominaldiameter plug gages be not greater than 2 m. Spring-wirestock or music-wire of known diameter are suitable

34、substitutes.The wire (or the plug gage) has a diameter dimension that isknown to be within 61.3 m. Diameter dimensions may varyby an amount approximately equal to the axial movement ofthe spindle when the wire (or the plug gage) is rotated through180.7.2.1 Lacking a detailed procedure supplied by th

35、e instru-ment manufacturer, confirm the parallelism requirements ofmachinists micrometers using the following procedure:7.2.1.1 Close the micrometer on the screw-thread-pitch wireor the plug gage in accordance with the calibration procedureof 7.6.2 or 7.6.3 as appropriate.7.2.1.2 Observe and record

36、the thickness indicated.7.2.1.3 Move the screw-thread-pitch wire or the plug gageto a different position between the presser foot and the anviland repeat 7.2.1.1 and 7.2.1.2.7.2.1.4 If the difference between any pair of readings isgreater than 2.5 m, the surfaces are NOT parallel.7.3 Lacking a detai

37、led procedure supplied by the instrumentmanufacturer, confirm the requirements for parallelism ofdial-type micrometers given in 6.3.1.2 by placing a hardenedsteel ball (such as is used in a ball bearing) of suitable diameterbetween the presser foot and the anvil. Mount the ball in afork-shaped holde

38、r to allow the ball to be conveniently movedfrom one location to another between the presser foot and theanvil. The balls used commercially in ball bearings are almostperfect spheres having diameters constant within a fraction ofa micron.NOTE 2Exercise care with this procedure. Calculations using th

39、eequations in X1.3.2 show that the use of a 0.68-kg mass and a ballbetween the hardened surfaces of presser foot and anvil can result indimples in the anvil or presser foot surfaces caused by exceeding the yieldstress of the surfaces.7.3.1 Observe and record the diameter as measured by themicrometer

40、 at one location.7.3.2 Move the ball to another location and repeat themeasurement.7.3.3 If the difference between any pair of readings isgreater than 2.5 m, the surfaces are NOT parallel.7.4 Lacking a detailed procedure supplied by the instrumentmanufacturer, confirm the flatness of the anvil and t

41、he spindlesurface of a micrometer or dial gage by use of an optical flatwhich has clean surfaces. Surfaces shall be flat within 2 m.7.4.1 After cleaning the micrometer surfaces (see 7.1), placethe optical flat on the anvil and close the presser foot asdescribed in 7.6.2 or 7.6.3 or 7.6.4 or 7.6.5 as

42、 appropriate.7.4.2 When illuminated by diffused daylight, interferencebands are formed between the surfaces of the flat and thesurfaces of the micrometer. The shape, location, and number ofthese bands indicate the deviation from flatness in incrementsof half the average wavelengths of white light, w

43、hich is takenas 0.2 m.7.4.2.1 A flat surface forms straight parallel fringes at equalintervals.7.4.2.2 A grooved surface forms straight parallel fringes atunequal intervals.7.4.2.3 A symmetrical concave or convex surface formsconcentric circular fringes. Their number is a measure ofdeviation from fl

44、atness.7.4.2.4 An unsymmetrical concave or convex surface formsa series of curved fringes that cut the periphery of themicrometer surface. The number of fringes cut by a straightline connecting the terminals of any fringes is a measure of thedeviation from flatness.7.5 Machinists Micrometer Requirem

45、ents:7.5.1 The requirements for zero reading of machinistsmicrometers are met when ten closings of the spindle onto theanvil, in accordance with 7.6.2.3 or 7.6.3.3 as appropriate,result in ten zero readings. The condition of zero reading issatisfied when examinations with a low-power magnifyingglass

46、 show that at least 66 % of the width of the zerograduation mark on the barrel coincides with at least 66 % ofthe width of the reference mark.7.5.2 Proper maintenance of a machinists micrometer mayrequire adjusting the instrument for wear of the micrometerscrew so that the spindle has no perceptible

47、 lateral or longitu-dinal looseness yet rotates with a torque load of less than0.0018 Nm. If this is not achievable after disassembly, clean-ing, and lubrication, replace the instrument.7.5.3 After the zero reading has been checked, use thecalibration procedure of 7.6.2 or 7.6.3 (as appropriate for

48、themachinists micrometer under examination) to check for maxi-mum acceptable error in the machinists micrometer screw.7.5.3.1 Use selected feeler-gage blades with known thick-nesses to within 60.5 m to check micrometers calibrated inmetric units at approximately 50, 130, and 250-m points. Usestandar

49、d gage blocks at points greater than 25 m.7.5.3.2 At each point checked, take ten readings. Calculatethe arithmetic mean of these ten readings.7.5.3.3 The machinists micrometer screw error is withinrequirements if the difference between the mean value of7.5.3.2 and the gage block (or feeler-gage blade) thickness isnot more than 2.5 m.7.5.4 Calibration of Spindle Pressure in Machinists Mi-crometer with Ratchet or Friction Thimble:7.5.4.1 See Annex A1, which details the apparatus andprocedure required for this calibration.7.6 Calibration of
