Vulcanized fibre for electrical purposes - Part 2: Methods of test
IEC 60667-2:2020 gives methods of test for vulcanized fibre sheets for electrical purposes. Material made by combining with an adhesive several thicknesses of vulcanized fibre is not covered by this document. Materials which conform to this specification meet established levels of performance. However, the selection of a material by a user for a specific application is based on the actual requirements necessary for adequate performance in that application and not based on this specification alone. Safety warning: It is the responsibility of the user of the methods contained or referred to in this document to ensure that they are used in a safe manner. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1982. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) added Terms and definitions b) added General notes on tests c) added Thickness instead of dimension d) changed Apparent density from Density e) added Arc resistance f) deleted Sulphate content g) added method (Bending) for flexibility h) changed test method for internal ply adhesion i) added Shrinkage

Fibres vulcanisées à usages électriques - Partie 2: Méthodes d’essai
IEC 60667-2:2020 spécifie les méthodes d’essai pour les feuilles en fibres vulcanisées à usages électriques. Les matériaux composites constitués de plusieurs couches de fibre vulcanisée assemblées par un adhésif ne sont pas couverts par le présent document. Les matériaux conformes à la présente spécification satisfont aux niveaux de performance établis. Cependant, le choix du matériau par un utilisateur pour une application spécifique est fondé sur les exigences réellement nécessaires pour une performance appropriée et non sur cette seule spécification. Mise en garde: Il est de la responsabilité de l’utilisateur des méthodes contenues ou mentionnées dans le présent document de veiller à ce qu’elles soient utilisées en toute sécurité. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 1982. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente: a) ajout de l’Article "Termes et définitions" b) ajouts dans l’Article "Remarques générales sur les essais" c) ajout du terme "épaisseur" en remplacement du terme "dimension" d) remplacement du terme "masse volumique" par "masse volumique apparente" e) ajout du contenu à l’Article "Résistance à l’arc" f) suppression de l’Article "Teneur en sulfate" g) ajout d’une méthode d’essai (Courbure) pour la flexibilité h) modification de la méthode d’essai pour l’adhérence interne du feuilletage i) ajout de l’Article "Stabilité dimensionnelle".

VULCANIZED FIBRE
FOR ELECTRICAL PURPOSES –
Part 2: Methods of test
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60667-2 has been prepared by IEC Technical Committee 15: Solid
electrical insulating materials.
