It supports EN 50107. By com

24、parison with EN 50143:1997 the number of cable types has been rationalised. One new type (type L) has been introduced, and four types (types A, C1, D1 and H) withdrawn. The object of the European Standard remains unchanged, namely: - to standardise cables and cords that are safe and reliable when pr

25、operly used in relation to the technical requirements of the installation of which they form a part; - to state the characteristics and manufacturing requirements directly or indirectly bearing on safety; and - to specify methods for checking conformity with those requirements.

These cables are for use in installations complying with EN 50107. The particular types of cables are specif

27、ied in Clauses 7 to 10 of this standard. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

34、 EN 50143:2009 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 type tests (symbol T) tests required to be made before supplying a type of cable covered by this standard on a general commercial basis, in order to demonstrate satisfactory perfo

35、rmance characteristics to meet the intended application NOTE These tests are of such a nature that, after they have been made, they need not be repeated unless changes are made in the cable materials, design or type of manufacturing process which might change the performance characteristics. 3.2 sam

36、ple tests (symbol S) tests made on samples of completed cable, or components taken from a completed cable adequate to verify that the finished product meets the design specifications 3.3 routine tests (symbol R) tests made on all production cable lengths to demonstrate their integrity 4 Rated voltag

37、e The rated voltage of a cable is the reference voltage for which the cable is designed, and which serves to define the electrical tests. The rated voltage is expressed by the combination of two values Uo/U, expressed in volts: - Uobeing the r.m.s. value between any insulated conductor and “earth“ (

38、metal covering of the cable or the surrounding medium); - U being the r.m.s. value between any two phase-conductors of a system of single-core cables. In an alternating current system, the rated voltage of a cable shall be at least equal to the nominal voltage of the system for which it is intended.

39、 This condition applies both to the value Uoand to the value U. In a direct current system, the maximum permanent operating voltage of the system is stated in Table 1. Table 1 - Maximum permitted voltages against rated voltage of cable in an a.c. system Rated voltage of cable (U0/U) Maximum permanen

41、 given in Clauses 7 to 10. 5.1.2 Check of construction Compliance with the requirements of 5.1.1, including the requirements of EN 60228, shall be checked by inspection and by measurement. 5.1.3 Electrical resistance The resistance of each conductor at 20 C shall be in accordance with the requiremen

42、ts of EN 60228 for the given class of conductor. Compliance shall be checked by the test given in Clause 5 of EN 50395. 5.2 Insulation 5.2.1 Material The insulation shall be a compound as specified for each type of cable in Clauses 7 to 10. The test requirements for these compounds are specified for

43、 the particular cable. Maximum material operating temperatures are stated in the relevant part of EN 50363. 5.2.2 Application to the conductor The insulation may consist of one or more bonded layers. The insulation shall be so applied that it fits closely on the conductor and it shall be possible to

44、 remove the insulation without damage to the remaining insulation, to the conductor, or to the tin coating. If required, compliance shall be checked by inspection and by manual test. The insulation shall be applied by an extrusion process, cross-linked where required, and shall form a compact and ho

45、mogeneous body. 5.2.3 Thickness The mean value of the thickness of insulation shall not be less than the specified value for each type and size of cable. However, the thickness at any one place may be less than the specified value provided that the difference does not exceed 0,1 mm + 10 % of the spe

46、cified value. Compliance shall be checked by the test given in 4.1 of EN 50396. 5.3 Oversheath 5.3.1 Material The oversheath shall be a compound of the type specified for each type of cable in Clauses 7 to 10. The test requirements for these compounds are specified for the particular cable. 5.3.2 Ap

BS EN 50143:2009 9 EN 50143:2009 5.3.3 Thickness The mean value of the thickness of the oversheath shall not be less than the specified value for each type and size of cable. However, the thickness at any place may be less than the specified value provided

48、 that the difference does not exceed 0,1 mm + 15 % of the specified value. Compliance shall be checked by the test given in 4.2 of EN 50396. 5.3.4 Overall dimensions The mean overall dimensions of the cable shall be within the limits specified in the tables for each type and size of cable in Clauses

49、 7 to 10. The difference between any two values of the overall diameter of sheathed circular cables at the same cross-section (ovality) shall not exceed 15 % of the upper limit specified for the mean overall diameter.
