Significance and Use4.1 This specification covers the minimum electrical,chemical a

18、nd physical properties guaranteed by the manufac-turer and the detailed procedures by which such properties areto be determined. The purchaser may as his/her option, performor have performed any of these tests in order to verify theguarantee. Claims for failure to meet the specification aresubject t

19、o verification by the manufacturer.4.2 Rubber Insulating Sheeting is used for personal protec-tion; therefore, when authorizing its use a margin of safetyshall be allowed between the maximum voltage at which it isused and the proof-test voltage at which it is tested. Therelationship between proof-te

20、st and the maximum voltage atwhich Sheeting shall be used is shown in Table 1.4.3 Work practices vary from user to user, depending uponmany factors. These factors may include, but are not limited tooperating system voltages, design, work procedures and tech-niques, weather conditions, etc. Therefore
