24、es of this document, the terms and definitions given in IEC 61340-1-2 apply. 4 Principle The characterization of a system is achieved by measuring electrical resistance and chargeability of the footwear and flooring in combination with a person. Chargeability is determined using a walking test. WARN

25、ING: Test procedures described in this standard may expose personnel to potentially hazardous electrical conditions. Appropriate electrical hazard reduction practices should be exercised and proper earthing instructions for the equipment used should be followed when performing tests. Page4 EN6134045

26、:2004163-04-45 EI:C0024 11 5 Atmosphere for conditioning and testing The following requirements supersede any other specification for the atmosphere for conditioning and testing that may be given in one or more of the documents referred to in this standard. Unless otherwise agreed, the atmosphere fo

27、r conditioning and testing for laboratory evaluations shall be (23 2) C and (12 3) % relative humidity. The conditioning time prior to testing shall be at least 48 h. Textile floor coverings are preferably pre-conditioned for at least 24 h at (20 2) C and (65 3) % relative humidity prior to conditio

28、ning and testing. During pre-conditioning and conditioning, specimens shall be placed on a rack or other suitable support that allows free circulation of air around them. Whenever tests are made in uncontrolled conditions, e.g. tests on installed floors, the ambient temperature and relative humidity

29、 at the time of measurement shall be recorded. 6 Test methods for footwear and flooring in combination with a person 6.1 Floor covering sampling and specimen preparation for laboratory tests Sampling and selection of specimens for laboratory tests shall be carried out according to the principles spe

30、cified in ISO 1957. For the purposes of this standard, the general principles of ISO 1957 apply to all types of floor covering. From each sample select a specimen measuring (2 0,1) m (1 0,1) m or, in the case of tiles, select sufficient tiles and/or part tiles to make up a single specimen area of (2

31、 0,1) m (1 0,1) m. For tests on floor coverings that will be installed with specific earth connections, a groundable point shall be attached to the test specimen in accordance with the manufacturers instructions, or as otherwise agreed, and in a way that simulates end use earthing methods. For charg

32、eability tests on floor coverings that will be installed without specific earth connections, groundable points shall not be attached to the test specimen. Sensible electrical resistance measurements cannot be made in the laboratory on floor coverings that will be installed without specific earth con

33、nections. Measurement of the electrical resistance of footwear and flooring in combination with a person shall only be made on such floor coverings once installed. The test specimen shall be mounted or loose-laid on nominal 6,3 mm tempered or standard hardboard, according to the manufacturers instru

34、ctions or as otherwise agreed. When mounted or loose-laid on the hardboard there shall be a gap of at least 10 mm between each edge of the specimen and the corresponding edge of the hardboard. The hardboard shall be clean, smooth and have a point-to-point resistance of greater than 10 11 when tested

35、 under the environmental conditions specified in Clause 5 of this standard and according to the test method specified in IEC 61340-4-1. Page5 EN6134045:2004163-04-45 EI:C0024 31 Floor finishes shall be tested in conjunction with floor coverings representative of the type for which the finishes are i

36、ntended. The floor covering shall be prepared and mounted as detailed above. The finish under test shall then be applied to the floor covering in accordance with the manufacturers instructions or as otherwise agreed. In cases where the manufacturer recommends the use of additional groundable points

37、on the surface of the floor covering, these shall be installed as per the manufacturers instructions prior to application of the finish, or as otherwise agreed. NOTE Generally, tests are performed on floor coverings as received, i.e. with finishes and special treatments as appropriate. If the perman

38、ency of such finishes and treatments is being investigated, specimens may be submitted to a cleaning process or to practical wear conditions before testing, either for laboratory evaluations or on installed floor coverings. Test results can be significantly affected by the presence of dirt or other

39、contaminants on the surface of floor coverings. Any cleaning performed on floor coverings shall be carried out as per the manufacturers instructions prior to conditioning. 6.2 Cleaning of footwear for laboratory evaluations and for test on installed floor coverings Test results can be significantly

40、affected by the presence of dirt or other contaminants on the soles of footwear. Any cleaning performed on footwear prior to and during testing shall be as follows. If it is required to test footwear “as received” or “as used” then cleaning shall be omitted from the test procedure. 6.2.1 Cleaning ma

41、terials 6.2.1.1 Sandpaper P280 grade sandpaper. 6.2.1.2 Scoured cotton cloth The cloth shall be free from finish and detergent. 6.2.1.3 Ethanol Concentration 95 %. 6.2.2 Cleaning procedure Scrub the sole of each item of footwear using a piece of scoured cotton (6.2.1.2) wetted with ethanol (6.2.1.3)

42、 to remove any chemical substance from the surface. When the soles are dry, abrade with a fine sandpaper (6.2.1.1), then remove the dust using a dry piece of scoured cotton. Finally, scrub the sole of each item of footwear again using a fresh piece of scoured cotton wetted with ethanol. This final s

43、tage only shall be repeated between each set of measurements. Ensure soles are dry before making measurements. 6.3 Measurement of electrical resistance 6.3.1 Apparatus 6.3.1.1 Resistance measuring apparatus A self-contained DC resistance meter (ohmmeter) or DC power supply and current meter in the a

44、ppropriate configuration for resistance measurement, with a 10 % accuracy, and fulfilling the following requirements. Page6 EN6134045:2004163-04-45 EI:C0024 51 NOTE For safety reasons, it should be ensured that the maximum current of the measuring circuit does not exceed 5 mA. 6.3.1.1.1 For laborato

45、ry evaluations The apparatus shall have a circuit voltage while under load of 10 V 0,5 V for resistance below 1,0 10 6 , and 100 V 5 V for resistance of 1,0 10 6 and above. The measuring range of the apparatus shall be at least one order of magnitude either side of the expected range of resistance b

46、eing measured. The apparatus shall be used in a manner that ensures unintended earth paths do not influence measurements. 6.3.1.1.2 For acceptance testing The apparatus shall have an open circuit voltage of 10 V 0,5 V for resistance below 1,0 10 6 , and 100 V 5 V for resistance of 1,0 10 6 and above

47、. The measuring range of the apparatus shall be at least one order of magnitude either side of the expected range of resistance being measured. The apparatus shall be used in a manner that ensures unintended earth paths do not influence measurements. Laboratory evaluation equipment as specified in 6

48、.3.1.1.1 may also be used for acceptance testing. In case of dispute, only a laboratory evaluation apparatus shall be used. 6.3.1.2 Hand-held electrode A stainless steel round stock or tube, approximately 25 mm diameter and 75 mm in length with a banana plug receptacle or screw connector attached to

49、 one end of the cylinder. 6.3.2 Test procedure Wear the test footwear on both feet for at least 10 min prior to the commencement of testing. Connect the negative lead of the resistance measuring apparatus (6.3.1.1) to the groundable point of the test floor covering (laboratory tests) or to earth (tests on installed floor coverings). Connect th
