12、e back coverBS67:1987 ii BSI 09-1999 Foreword This revision of this British Standard has been prepared under the direction of the Power Electrical Engineering Standards Committee and supersedes BS67:1969. This revised standard comes into force immediately, but to allow manufacturers time to design a

13、nd introduce any necessary changes, BS 67:1969 will not be withdrawn until 31 December 1987. NOTEUpon publication of this revision, BSI Sales Department will respond to purchase orders for BS 67 by supplying copies of the 1987 edition. Copies of the 1969 edition may be obtained by quoting the number

14、 “BS 67/BS69” The main purpose of the revision has been to update the standard so as to bring the requirements and tests into line with other recently published BritishStandards for accessories which have taken account of relevant InternationalStandards. A British Standard does not purport to includ

15、e all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi

16、andii, pages1 to20, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover.BS67:1987 BSI 09-1999 1 1 Scope This British Standard specifies requirement

17、s for ceiling roses having maximum ratings of 6 A and250 V intended for use in final circuits rated at16 A maximum for ceiling roses with screw-type supply terminals or 10 A maximum for ceiling roses with screwless supply terminals. The requirements specified in this standard have particular referen

18、ce to safety in use. The ceiling roses are intended for use with cables complying with BS 6004 or BS 6007 having copper conductors and for use with flexible cords complying with BS 6500. Ceiling roses incorporating means other than rewirable terminals, to facilitate the connection and disconnection

19、of lampholders or luminaires, are not covered by this standard. NOTE 1Accessories complying with this standard may be regarded as lighting outlets. NOTE 2The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 2 Conditions of use Ceiling roses shall be suitab

20、le for use under the following conditions: a) an ambient temperature having a peak value not exceeding 40 C, with an average value not exceeding 35 C in a period of 24 h, but not subject to exposure to direct radiation from the sun or any other source of heat likely to raise the temperature above th

21、e specified ambient temperature; b) an ambient temperature having a value not less than 5 C; c) an altitude not exceeding 2000 m above sea level; d) an atmosphere not subject to excessive pollution by smoke, chemical fumes, salt laden spray, prolonged periods of high humidity or other abnormal condi

22、tions. 3 Definitions For the purposes of this British Standard the following definitions apply. 3.1 ceiling rose an accessory for connection to the fixed wiring of an installation to pass current to a lampholder or a luminaire by means of the conductors of a flexible cord 3.2 surface-type ceiling ro

23、se a ceiling rose provided with a seating surface such that when mounted as intended it projects wholly outside the surface on which it is mounted 3.3 semi-recessed or flush-type ceiling rose a ceiling rose intended for mounting with its base partially or completely sunk into a box complying with BS

24、 31, BS 4568-2, BS 4607-5 or BS 4662 3.4 terminal housing that part of the ceiling rose which locates and separates the terminals NOTEThe terminal housing may, or may not, be integral with the base. 3.5 terminal a means by which the user can make an electrical connection between the appropriate cabl

25、e or flexible cord and the conducting parts of the accessory without the use of special tools 3.6 screw-type terminal a terminal in which the connection is made directly or indirectly by means of screws or nuts of any kind NOTEThe following are examples of screw-type terminals. a) A pillar terminal

26、is a terminal in which the conductor is inserted into a hole or cavity, where it is clamped under the shank of the screw or screws. The clamping pressure may be applied directly by the shank of the screw or through an intermediate member to which pressure is applied by the shank of the screw. b) A s

27、crew terminal is a terminal in which the conductor is clamped under the head of the screw. The clamping pressure may be applied directly by the head of the screw or through an intermediate part, such as a washer, clamping plate or anti-spread device. c) A stud terminal is a terminal in which the con

28、ductor is clamped under a nut. The clamping pressure may be applied directly by a suitably shaped nut or through an intermediate part, such as a washer, clamping plate or anti-spread device. 3.7 screwless terminal a connecting terminal for the connection and subsequent disconnection of one conductor

29、 or the dismountable interconnection of two or more conductors capable of being dismantled, the connection being made, directly or indirectly, by means of springs or wedges, eccentrics or cones, etc. 3.8 load terminals terminals intended to accommodate flexible conductors for the connection of a lam

33、ing the requirements of the specification 4 General requirements Ceiling roses shall be so designed and constructed that when installed in the proper manner and in normal use they function reliably and cause no danger to persons or surroundings. Ceiling roses shall be capable of meeting all the rele

34、vant requirements and tests specified herein. NOTEWhere tolerances are not specified in this standard the values are to be regarded as nominal. 5 General conditions for type testing 5.1 All tests in this standard are type tests. 5.2 Unless otherwise specified in this standard ceiling roses shall be

35、tested as delivered and installed, as in normal use, at an ambient temperature of 20 5 C. 5.3 A total sample of nine ceiling roses shall be submitted to inspection and tests in the following order of clauses: a) three ceiling roses: clauses 4 to 13 and clauses19 and 20 (mainly inspection); b) three

36、ceiling roses: clauses 10 to 13, 14.3 to14.6 and clauses 16 and 19 (general tests); c) three ceiling roses: 14.1, 14.2 and clauses17, 18 and 21 (material tests). 5.4 If no ceiling rose fails in the tests specified in 5.3, then ceiling roses of that type shall be deemed to comply with this standard.

37、If one ceiling rose fails in any individual test, or series of tests, specified in 5.3 and that ceiling rose can be shown to be not representative of normal design or production, then a separate set of three ceiling roses shall be submitted to the relevant test or series of tests specified in 5.3. I

38、f no ceiling rose fails in this re-test then ceiling roses of that type shall be deemed to comply with this standard. If more than one ceiling rose fails in the tests specified in 5.3 then ceiling roses of that type shall be deemed not to comply with this standard. 6 Ratings 6.1 Ceiling roses shall
