31、sts for compression and mechanical connectors for use on copper or aluminium conductors of power cables for rated voltages up to 36 kV (U m= 42 kV). When a design of connector meets the requirements of this standard, then it is expected that in service: a) the resistance of the connection will remai

32、n stable; b) the temperature of the connector will be of the same order or less than that of the conductor; c) the mechanical strength will be fit for the purpose; d) if the intended use demands it, application of short-circuit currents will not affect a) and b). It should be stressed that, although

33、 the electrical and mechanical tests specified in this standard are to prove the suitability of connectors for most operating conditions, they do not necessarily apply to situations where a connector may be raised to a high temperature by virtue of connection to highly rated plant, or where the conn

34、ector is subjected to excessive mechanical vibration or shock or to corrosive conditions. In these instances, the tests in this standard may need to be supplemented by special tests agreed between supplier and purchaser.

35、 POWER CABLES FOR RATED VOLTAGES UP TO 36 kV (U m= 42 kV) Part 1: Test methods and requirements 1 Scope and object This part of IEC 61238 applies to compression and mechanical connectors for power cables for rated voltages up to 36 kV (U m= 42 kV) , e.g. buried cables or cables installed in building

36、s, having a) conductors complying with IEC 60228 and IEC 60228A with cross-sectional areas 10 mm 2and greater for copper and 16 mm 2and greater for aluminium, b) a maximum continuous conductor temperature not exceeding 90 C. This standard is not applicable to connectors for overhead conductors, whic

37、h are designed for special mechanical requirements, or to separable connectors with a sliding contact or multi- core connectors (i.e. ring connectors). Although it is not possible to define precisely the service conditions for all applications, two broad classes of connectors have been identified. C

38、lass A These are connectors intended for electricity distribution or industrial networks in which they can be subjected to short-circuits of relatively high intensity and duration. As a consequence, Class A connectors are suitable for the majority of applications. Class B These are connectors for ne

39、tworks in which overloads or short-circuits are rapidly cleared by the installed protective devices, e.g. fast-acting fuses. Depending on the application, the connectors are subjected to the following tests: Class A: heat cycle and short-circuit tests; Class B: heat cycle tests only. The object of t

40、his standard is to define the type test methods and requirements, which apply to compression and mechanical connectors for power cables with copper or aluminium conductors. Formerly, approval for such products has been achieved on the basis of national standards and specifications and/or the demonst

41、ration of satisfactory service performance. The publication of this IEC standard does not invalidate existing approvals. However, products approved according to these earlier standards or specifications cannot claim approval to this IEC standard unless specifically tested to it. Page6 EN612381:20036

42、1238-1 IEC:2003 7 After they have been made, these tests need not be repeated unless changes are made in the connector material, design or manufacturing process which might affect the performance characteristics. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the app
