26、articular requirements for clamping units for conductors above 35 mm 2up to 300 mm 2(included) 1 Scope This part of IEC 60999 applies to screw-type and screwless-type clamping units for connecting devices, either as separate entities or as integral parts of equipment, for the connection of electrica

27、l copper conductors (complying with IEC 60228), rigid stranded and/or flexible, having a cross-section above 35 mm 2and up to and including 300 mm 2and equivalent AWG/kcmil sizes with a rated voltage not exceeding 1 000 V a.c. and a frequency up to and including 1 000 Hz and 1 500 V d.c. It applies

28、to clamping units primarily suitable for connecting unprepared conductors. This standard does not apply to clamping units: for connection by crimping or soldering; for non-universal clamping units defined in 3.10.2 of IEC 60999-1. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispe

31、 Definitions For the purposes of this part of IEC 60999, Clause 3 of IEC 60999-1 applies, with the following modifications. Definition 3.10.2 of IEC 60999-1 is not applicable. Page5 EN609992:2003 3.11 rated cross-section of a clamping unit value of connectable conductor cross-section stated by the m

32、anufacturer and to which certain thermal, mechanical and electrical requirements are referred NOTE The rated cross-section is the equivalent of the rated connecting capacity in accordance with 3.11 of IEC 60999-1. 4 General Clause 4 of IEC 60999-1 applies. 5 General notes on tests Clause 5 of IEC 60

33、999-1 applies. 6 Main characteristics The standard rated cross-sections of a clamping unit are: 50 mm 2 , 70 mm 2 , 95 mm 2 , 120 mm 2 , 150 mm 2 , 185 mm 2 , 240 mm 2and 300 mm 2 . NOTE For the time being, in some countries, the designation by wire gauges (e.g. AWG in USA and Canada) may be used in

34、stead of the cross-sections expressed in square millimetres. For the approximate relationship between square millimetres and AWG/kcmil see Annex A. 7 Connection of conductors 7.1 In general, clamping units are suitable to accept one conductor only. Certain types may also be used for two or more cond

35、uctors of the same or of different nominal cross-sections or compositions. Clamping units shall accept unprepared conductors. NOTE Screw-type clamping units are not suitable for the connection of flexible conductors with tin soldered ends. 7.2 Each clamping unit, if not otherwise stated in the relev

36、ant product standard, shall, in addition to its rated cross-section, accept at least the two successive smaller cross-sections (e.g. a clamping unit having the rated cross-section of 70 mm 2shall reliably clamp a conductor of the same type of 35 mm 2 , 50 mm 2or 70 mm 2 ). If a clamping unit covers

37、a range larger than the minimum, this shall be marked either on the clamping unit or stated in the manufacturers literature. 7.3 The theoretical diameter of the largest conductor and the relationship between the rated cross-section and connectable conductors are given in Table 1.

NOTE Diameters of the largest rigid and flexible conductors are based on Table 1 and Table 3 of IEC 60228A and, for AWG conductors, on ASTM B 172-71 1 1 , ICEA Publication S-19-81 2, ICEA Publication S-66-524 3 and ICEA Publication S-66-516

41、4. 7.4 Clamping units, unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer, shall accept rigid stranded and flexible conductors as indicated in Table 1, in which case no markings are necessary. If a clamping unit according to the manufacturers specification can accept only one type of conductor (rigid or

42、 flexible), this shall be either clearly marked on the end product, respectively by the letters “r” or “f”, or indicated on the smallest package unit and/or in the technical information. Compliance shall be checked by inspection and by the tests of 9.1 and 9.6. 7.5 On screwless-type clamping units,

43、the connection or disconnection of conductors shall be made by the use of a general purpose tool, or of a convenient device integral with the clamping unit, in order to open it for the insertion or the withdrawal of the conductors. Compliance shall be checked by inspection and by the test of 9.3. 8

44、Constructional requirements Clause 8 of IEC 60999-1 applies with the following modifications. Replace 8.1.1 of IEC 60999-1 as follows: 1Figures in square brackets refer to the bibliography. Page7 EN609992:2003 8.1.1 Parts of clamping units mainly intended for carrying current, shall be of copper, or

45、 an alloy containing at least 58 % copper for parts that are worked cold or at least 50 % copper for other parts, or other metal with surface protection offering a resistance to corrosion not less than that of copper and having mechanical properties at least equivalent. Compliance shall be checked b

46、y inspection and by the test specified in the relevant product standard. 8.1.2 Not applicable. 8.4 The note is not applicable. 9 Tests 9.1 The insertion of the largest conductor is checked by the test according to Annex B, or by the insertion of the largest conductor after the insulation has been re

47、moved and the ends of the rigid stranded and of the flexible conductors have been reshaped. NOTE The manufacturer may specify the test method. The stripped end of the conductor shall be able to enter completely within the clamping unit aperture, without use of undue force. 9.2 Three new clamping uni

48、ts are fitted with new conductors of the type and of the rated cross-section according to Table 1 and whose core composition complies with Annex C. Before insertion into the clamping unit, wires of stranded rigid conductors and flexible conductors may be reshaped. The use of a tool is permitted. It

49、shall be possible to fit the conductor into the clamping unit without use of undue force. The conductor is inserted into the clamping unit until it just protrudes from the far side of the clamping unit if possible, and in the position most likely to allow the wire to escape. The clamping screws, if any, are then tightened with a torque as shown in 9.6. After the t
