However, products approved according to such national standards or specifications cannot directly claim approval to this European Standard. It may be possible, subject to agreement between supplier and p

22、urchaser, and/or the relevant conformity assessment body, to demonstrate that conformity to the earlier standard can be used to claim conformity to this standard, provided an assessment is made of any additional type testing that may need to be carried out. Any such additional testing that is part o

38、9 of EN 50483-1. 7.1 Generalities Minimum and maximum cross-sections of the conductors used for the tests shall be the minimum and maximum cross-sections for which the connector is designed. All conductors used in these tests shall be pre-conditioned in accordance with 7.2. When tensile test loads a

39、re applied to conductors the rate of increase shall be in accordance with EN 50483-1, 9.1.4. A torque meter shall be used for all tightening operations and it shall have a resolution and accuracy in accordance with EN 50483-1, 9.1.8. All tests shall be carried out at ambient temperature unless other

40、wise stated in this standard. The frequency of a.c. tests shall be in accordance with EN 50483-1, 9.1.1. The relative humidity shall be in accordance with EN 50483-1, 9.1.9 unless otherwise altered by this standard. If a cable breaks beyond any part of a connector, the test result shall be declared

41、void without discrediting the connector. Tests can be repeated using a new connector and a new cable. 7.2 Preconditioning of ABC New cores or cables shall be used. Cores shall be pre-conditioned according to of EN 50483-1, 9.1 in order to ensure the dimensional stabilisation of the insulating sheath

42、. The extremities of the service cables shall be installed into the connector in accordance with the instructions given by the connector manufacturer. For the voltage and water tightness tests in 8.1.3, if the connector is tested in horizontal position, the cores shall first be bent and held in a ri

For the climatic ageing test in 8.1.5.2, the cores shall be bent as for the dielectrical voltage and water tightness tests and their ends shall be tightly capped

44、to prevent moisture from penetrating the conductors, as required in the specific test. When there is a requirement to bend the cables, the bending radius shall be at least 15 times the outer diameter of the core. NOTE 1 It is recommended that the cores should be shaped before installing the connecto
