17、3:2011 (E)4 1 Scope This European standard specifies a method of assessing the behaviour of cable insulation subject to an electric arc initiated and maintained by contaminating fluid along the surface of the insulation. This standard shall be used together with EN 3475-100. The primary aim of this

18、test is: to produce, in a controlled fashion, continuous failure effects, which are representative of those, which may occur in service when a typical cable bundle is damaged and subjected to aqueous fluid contamination. Electrical arcing occurs along the surface of the insulation between damage sit

19、es on adjacent cables; and to examine the aptitude of the insulation to track, to propagate electric arc to the electrical origin. Originally defined for 115 Vac network, this test also proposes conditions for 230 Vac network. Unless otherwise specified in product standard, only 115 Vac conditions s

20、hall be satisfied. Six levels of prospective fault current have been specified for concerned cable sizes (see Clause 7). It is agreed that sizes larger than 051 need not be assessed since the short-circuit phenomenon becomes dominant at low line impedances. Unless otherwise specified in the technica

21、l/product standard sizes 002, 006 and 020 cable shall be assessed. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

BS EN 3475-603:2011 EN 3475-603:2011 (E)5 4 Preparation of specimen Cut seven separate lengths approximately 0,5 m consecutively from one length

25、of cable, and strip each of the ends of insulation to permit electrical connection. Clean each length of cable with a clean cloth moistened with propan-2-ol (isopropyl alcohol) fluid. Damage two lengths of the cable by inflicting a cut around the total circumference at the mid-point of the length, t

26、aking care to ensure that the cut penetrates to the conductor around the full circumference and has a width of 0,5 mm to 1,0 mm. Lay up the seven cables as follows: a) Form the cables in a six around one configuration as shown in Figure 1. b) Displace the damaged cables longitudinally such that a se

27、paration of (10 0,5) mm of undamaged insulation is provided as shown in Figure 2. This is called the test zone. c) Ensure that cables are straight and geometrically parallel, and restrained by ties such that they are in continuous contact within the test zone. d) Position the ties or PTFE glass laci

28、ng tape (41,0) mm away from each outer notch and then at 15 mm to 20 mm spacing towards the ends of the specimen as show in Figure 2. The tie material used adjacent to the notch shall be PTFE glass lacing tape conforming to A-A-52083 type IV, finish D, size 3. e) Figure 1 Number the cables as shown

29、in Figure 1 such that the fault cables are numbers A1 and B1 and the centre is N. Cables C1, A2, B2 and C2 are grouped around N.

This circuit shall have the following requirement

31、s: a) The provision of adjustable levels of prospective fault currents for the six A, B and C cables and an electrical return path for the N cable. b) A three phase 115/200 V 400 Hz (115 Vac network) or 230/400 V 400 Hz (230 Vac network) star (Y) connected supply shall be derived from a dedicated ro

32、tary machine capable of sustaining the maximum prospective fault current given in Table 1 for at least sufficient time for the circuit protection to operate. In any case the generator shall have a sufficient rating to provide these prospective fault currents. c) The (115 - 115 W per phase for 115 Va

33、c network or 230 - 230 W per phase for 230 Vac network) ballast resistors R1, are fitted in order to prevent over voltage during the arc extinction phases (opening of an inductive circuit). BS EN 3475-603:2011 EN 3475-603:2011 (E)7 d) 115 Vac or 230 Vac circuit breakers shall be single pole units ra

34、ted at the values specified in Table 2. They shall have trip characteristics in accordance with EN 2350 or as required by the product specification. NOTE 1 Reference of circuit breakers used shall be recorded. NOTE 2 In particular case, others ratings of thermal breaker protection could be employed

35、in accordance with aircraft manufacturer rules. e) The electrical power source shall be appropriately protected and should be established that no combination of test circuit events would activate this protection. f) The resistors shall be non-inductive and have appropriate power rating. Care shall b

36、e taken to position all laboratory wiring such that inductive effects are reduced to a practical minimum. Supply cables shall be as short as possible. g) Cables A, B and C shall be connected to indication and open circuit detectors (Rg) at the entry into the grounded star point. These components sha

37、ll limit the standing current to no more than 10 % of the circuit breaker rating. h) An automatic shut down facility shall be provided, which shall upon the detection of any open circuit during the test and after a 10 s delay, shutdown the flow of electrolyte and electrical power. An open circuit in

38、 this case means either a physical break in the specimen or a thermal breaker trip. The facility to override this shut down facility shall be provided so as to restore the power whilst still inhibiting the flow of electrolyte. The physical break in the specimen is to be indicated by lamps in series

39、with resistor Rg. i) Appropriate instrumentation, recording and switching control shall be installed in accordance with good laboratory practice. j) Adjust resistor Rg so that the current (I) in the circuit is 10 % of value of the circuit breaker rated current.

41、ady means of connecting test specimens into the circuit as shown in Figure 2. b) A transparent enclosure to protect personnel from ejected molten metal and short wavelength ultra violet light. c) An electrolyte delivery system which provides a constant rate of (100 10) mg per minute and dispenses dr

42、ops from an 18 gauge needle cut square at the outlet. NOTE The needle wall thickness should be selected such that the specified flow rate will be delivered at approximately 6-10 drops per minute. 5.3 Test protocol 5.3.1 The procedure embraces copper cable sizes 001 to 051 (26 to 10) or aluminium cab

43、le sizes 002 to 051 (24 to 10) and for each size six values of prospective maximum fault current to be set by adjustment of BS EN 3475-603:2011 EN 3475-603:2011 (E)9 resistances Rf have been defined in Table 1. Performance of the cable at a given fault current shall be determined by testing three sp

44、ecimens. Thus 18 specimens are required for each cable size. 5.3.2 For the purpose of cable qualification at least sizes 002, 006 and 020 shall be tested. Additional testing of other sizes may be deemed necessary in particular cases and values of prospective fault currents, the ratings of thermal br

45、eaker protection which are typical of aircraft use have been included in Table 1. 5.3.3 It is emphasised that electrical arcing tests are essentially destructive and can be hazardous to personnel. Therefore tests should be undertaken with all observers shielded from direct physical and visual exposu

46、re as noted in 5.2 b). The use of video recording for all tests is required. 5.4 Test rig set-up 5.4.1 Install the rating of circuit breaker appropriate to the cable type and size to be tested (Table 2). 5.4.2 Heavy-duty electrical connections shall be fitted in substitution of test specimen to enab

47、le prospective fault currents to be set by adjustment of resistances Rf. Because these currents would trip the thermal breakers very rapidly these shall be shunted to permit the pulsing of current until the desired value is obtained. Re-instate the thermal protection. 5.4.3 Prepare an electrolyte so

48、lution made by dissolving (3 0,5) % by weight of sodium chloride in distilled water. 5.4.4 Support the specimen in free air inclined at an angle of 10 to the horizontal with the electrical input connections at the higher end and with the cables forming the test zone uppermost. 5.4.5 Position the del

49、ivery system so that the electrolyte contacts the loom from a height of (10 2) mm above the uppermost cables in the loom at a point which shall position the droplets into the upper cut or no more than 2 mm towards the higher end of the specimen. Ensure that the drops strike the cables in the middle of the test zone, the top centre of the circumference such that they fall into the crevice between cables at A1 and B1. 6 Method 6.1 Test procedure 6.1.1 Install a test specimen with el
