1、Designation: D 4246 02An American National StandardStandard Specification forOzone-Resistant Thermoplastic Elastomer Insulation ForWire and Cable, 90C Operation1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4246; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal

2、adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers an ozone-resistant insulatingcompound for

3、 electrical wire and cables 14 AWG and larger.This compound consists substantially of a thermoplastic elas-tomer.1.2 This type of insulation is considered suitable for con-tinuous operation at conductor temperatures not exceeding90C in dry locations. Operating voltages are not to exceed2000 V. The m

4、inimum installation temperature is 40C.1.3 Whenever two sets of values are presented, in differentunits, the values in the first set are the standard, while those inparentheses are for information only.1.4 In many instances the insulation material cannot betested unless it has been formed around a c

5、onductor or cable.Therefore, tests are done on insulated wire or cable in thisspecification solely to determine the relevant property of theinsulation material and not to test the conductor or completedcable.2.

The sequence of other testing is notspecified.5.2 AC Voltage TestUnless otherwise specified, omit thistest if the dc voltage test described in 5.4 is to be performed.Test each insulated conductor for 5 min at the ac voltage givenin Table number 1(a) (Conductor Sizes, Insu

10、lation Thick-nesses, and AC Test Voltages, for Rubber Insulations) ofMethods D 470 under the columns labelled “Ozone-ResistingInsulations.”5.3 Insulation ResistanceThe insulated conductor shallhave an insulation resistance value of at least that correspond-ing to a constant of 10 000 at 60F (15.6C).

11、5.3.1 If the water temperature at the time measurement wasmade differs from 60F (15.6C), correct the insulation resis-tance to 60F. Table number 2, (Temperature CorrectionFactors for Insulation Resistance at 60F) of Test MethodsD 470 contains the correction factors. Each insulation manu-facturer can

12、 furnish the 1F coefficient for the insulationmaterial by using the procedure given in Test Methods D 470.Multiply the measured value by the correction factor to obtainthe insulation resistance value corrected to 60F.5.3.2 If the insulated conductor is covered with a non-metallic sheath so that the

13、insulation resistance can be mea-sured only on the completed assembly, the required insulationresistance shall be at least 60 % of that required for the primaryinsulation based on the thickness of that insulation.5.4 DC Voltage TestUnless otherwise specified, omit thistest if the ac voltage test des

14、cribed in 5.2 has been performed.After completion of the insulation resistance test, test eachinsulated conductor for 5 min at the dc test voltage given in1This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D09 onElectrical and Electronic Insulating Materials and is the direct responsibi
