EN 62329-2:2006

Heat shrinkable moulded shapes - Part 2: Methods of test

This part of IEC 62329 gives methods of test for heat-shrinkable moulded shapes in a range of configurations and materials suitable for insulation, environmental sealing, mechanical protection and strain relief for connector/cable terminations and multi-way transitions. The tests specified are designed to control the quality of the moulded shapes but it is recognized that they do not completely establish the suitability of moulded shapes for impregnation or encapsulation processes or other specialized applications.

Wärmeschrumpfende Formteile - Teil 2: Prüfverfahren

Gaines thermorétractables - Partie 2: Méthodes d'essai

La CEI 62329-2:2006 décrit des méthodes d'essai des profilés thermorétractables dans une gamme de configurations et de matériaux adaptés à l'isolement, aux éléments d'étanchéité contre les intempéries, à la protection mécanique et aux dispositifs anti-traction pour connecteurs/extrémités de câbles, et aux transitions à conducteurs multiples. Les essais spécifiés sont prévus pour contrôler la qualité des profilés, mais il est admis qu'ils n'établissent pas totalement l'adéquation des profilés aux processus d'imprégnation ou d'encapsulation ou à d'autres applications spécialisées.

This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2006-10-01. CENELEC members are bound to comply
with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard
the status of a national standard without any alteration.

Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on
application to the Central Secretariat or to any CENELEC member.

This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and notified
to the Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.

CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, the Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,
Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
