Optical fibre cables - Part 1-23: Generic specification - Basic optical cable test procedures - Cable element test methods

IEC 60794-1-23:2019 is available as IEC 60794-1-23:2019 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition. IEC 60794-1-23:2019 describes test procedures to be used in establishing uniform requirements for the geometrical, material, mechanical, environmental properties of optical fibre cable elements. This document applies to optical fibre cables for use with telecommunication equipment and devices employing similar techniques, and to cables having a combination of both optical fibres and electrical conductors. Throughout the document, the wording "optical cable" can also include optical fibre units, microduct fibre units, etc. See IEC 60794-1-2 for a reference guide to test methods of all types and for general requirements and definitions. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2012. It constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - addition of a new test Method G9: Bleeding and evaporation (formerly known as Method E15 in IEC 60794-1-21:2015); - addition of a new test Method G10A: Stripping force stability of cabled optical fibres (formerly known as Method E5A in IEC 60794-1-21:2015); - addition of a new test Method G10B: Strippability of optical fibre ribbons (formerly known as Method E5B in IEC 60794-1-21:2015); - addition of a new test Method G10C: Strippability of buffered optical fibres (formerly known as Method E5C in IEC 60794-1-21:2015); - addition of a new test Method G11: Tensile strength and elongation of buffer tubes (included in IEC 60811-501); - addition of a new test Method G12: Elongation of buffer tubes at low temperature (included in IEC 60811-505); - clarification of the sample preparation procedure in Method G5: Ribbon tear (separability); Keywords: optical fibre cable, optical cable test procedures

Câbles à fibres optiques - Partie 1-23: Spécification générique - Procédures fondamentales d’essai des câbles optiques - Méthodes d’essai des éléments de câble

IEC 60794-1-23:2019 est disponible sous forme de IEC 60794-1-23:2019 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente. L'IEC 60794-1-23:2019 décrit les procédures d’essai à utiliser pour l’établissement d’exigences uniformes pour les propriétés géométriques, matérielles, mécaniques et environnementales des éléments de câble à fibres optiques. Le présent document s’applique aux câbles à fibres optiques destinés à être utilisés avec des équipements de télécommunication et des dispositifs utilisant des techniques analogues, ainsi qu’aux câbles constitués de fibres optiques d’une part et de conducteurs électriques d’autre part. Dans le présent document, le terme "câble optique" peut également englober les unités de fibres optiques, les unités de fibres en microconduit, etc. Voir la IEC 60794-1-2 est le guide de référence des méthodes d’essai de tous types. Il doit être pris en considération pour les exigences générales et les définitions. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 2012. Elle constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente: - ajout d’une nouvelle méthode d’essai G9: dégorgement et évaporation (précédemment connue en tant que méthode E15 dans l’IEC 60794-1-21:2015); - ajout d’une nouvelle méthode d’essai G10A: stabilité de la force de dénudage des fibres optiques câblées (précédemment connue en tant que méthode E5A dans l’IEC 60794-1-21:2015); - ajout d’une nouvelle méthode d’essai G10B: dénudabilité des rubans de fibres optiques (précédemment connue en tant que méthode E5B dans l’IEC 60794-1-21:2015); - ajout d’une nouvelle méthode d’essai G10C: dénudabilité des fibres optiques à revêtement protecteur (précédemment connue en tant que méthode E5C dans l’IEC 60794-1-21:2015); - ajout d’une nouvelle méthode d’essai G11A: résistance à la traction et allongement des tubes de protection (inclus à l’IEC 60811-501); - ajout d’une nouvelle méthode d’essai G11B: allongement des tubes de protection à basse température (inclus à l’IEC 60811-505); - clarification de la procédure de préparation des échantillons dans la méthode G5: déchirement des rubans (séparabilité). Mots-clés: câbles à fibres optiques, procédures d’essai des câbles optiques
