18、on. The primary purpose of the torsion test is to measure any variation in optical power transmittance of a fibre or electrical performance of a copper cable when the cable is subjected to torsional and twisting forces external to the cable jacket. A secondary purpose is to evaluate the possibility

19、of physical damage that may occur as a result of such stresses. The primary purpose of the twisting test is to determine the change of RL and NEXT caused when the cable assembly is subjected either to bending or twisting. It is to be read in conjunction with EN 50289-3-1, which contains essential pr

20、ovisions for its application. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

22、 4.1 Sample The specimen shall be a sample of finished cable having a total length sufficient to permit the appropriate clamping and torsion, and long enough to permit optical transmittance or electrical measurements as required by the relevant cable specification. 4.2 Equipment The torsional appara

23、tus consists essentially of two cable gripping devices or clamps, one fixed and one that can rotate, supported as appropriate, and adjustable as to distance between them. The rotating clamp is connected to suitable turning equipment (e.g. a torquing lever). Any clamp supports, gripping devices, or t

24、orquing equipment used shall all be such as to permit access to both ends of the cable specimen for optical or electrical testing as may be required. Suitable apparatus is illustrated in Figures 1, 2 and 3. - 5 - EN 50289-3-10:2004 The cable gripping devices shall be such that - they may be tightene

25、d around the cable sufficiently to prevent movement within the grip, - the clamps hold the cable firmly in a straight line, - the clamps induce neither localized twisting damage on the cable caused by the inside edge of the clamp nor undue localized concentration of pressure on the cable, - the proc

26、ess of clamping does not induce any significant or accurately measurable attenuation increase (or no more than a negligible increase) in the specimen. If required by the relevant cable specification and/or to minimize specimen bending from a straight configuration, use weights or an appropriate load

27、ing mechanism to apply a tensile load to the cable gripping fixture (see Figures 1 and 3). The apparatus shall include test equipment to measure the change in optical or electrical performance as required in the relevant specification. 4.3 Procedure Install the specimen in the test apparatus such th

28、at the test length, L (see Figures 1, 2 and 3), is as required by the relevant cable specification. Take care to insure that no initial stress is applied to the specimen. Except for the necessary twisting operation, take care not to move or disturb the specimen ends throughout the test. Minimize spe

29、cimen sag (Figure 1 or 2) or vertical deviation from a straight line (Figure 3) as much as possible. If optical or electrical tests are required by the relevant cable specification, measure the unstressed specimen. Compare results with those after clamping to ensure that the clamping has not signifi

30、cantly degraded the cable performance. If not prohibited by the relevant cable specification, specimen sag or bend may be minimized by supporting the test length or by applying tension to the specimen cable between clamps. If required, apply tension as specified in the relevant cable specification t

31、o keep the specimen straight. If tension is required by the relevant cable specification, but specific tension loads are not stated, apply tension as shown in Table 1.

EN 50289-3-10:2005 - 6 - Rotate the movable cable clamp as follows: - rotate

33、180 clockwise; - return to the starting position; - rotate 180 counter-clockwise; - return to the starting position. This total four-part movement constitutes one cycle. Unless otherwise specified in the relevant cable specification, complete each cycle within 1 min, maximum, for a total of 10 cycle

34、s. During the final cycle (tenth), determine the number of transmitting fibres with the cable: - rotated 180 clockwise; - rotated 180 counter-clockwise; - with no rotation, after completion of the final cycle. Carry out the specified measurements. Allow the specimen to rest for a minimum period of 5

35、 min. If necessary, the sample may be removed from the apparatus for visual examination using normal corrected vision. 4.4 Requirements The acceptance criteria for the sample under test shall be stated in the relevant cable specification. Typical failure modes include loss of optical continuity, inc

36、rease in fibre loss, degradation of return loss, degradation of NEXT, and damage to the cable jacket or core components. 4.5 Test report The test report shall give the test conditions: - test length, L; - any tension which is to be applied; - number of fibres to be monitored for optical transmittanc

37、e; - maximum allowable change in optical or electrical performance; - temperature and record the pass/fail conditions as required in the relevant cable specification.

During recording of the RL or the NEXT, the cable is wound around the mandrel for 180 (Figure 4b), unwound to the starting position, wound counter-clockwise for 180 around the mandrel (Figure 4c) and again unwound to its starting position. The init

40、ial position of the mandrel shall be chosen that only the straight parts of the “U“ will be bent during the test. Unless otherwise specified the radius of mandrel shall be 120 mm.

41、assembly which is in “U“ shape has to be connected to a suitable network analyser (Figure 5a). During the recording of the RL and the NEXT the mandrel in the middle of the cable is first twisted in a clockwise direction for 180 (Figure 5b) then released to the starting position, twisted counter-cloc

42、kwise for 180 (Figure 5c) and again released to its starting position. NOTE Depending on the torsional rigidity and the maximum permissible torque at the cable connectors interface the maximum twist angle may have to be restricted. Unless otherwise specified the radius of mandrel shall be 120 mm. -
