EN 61442:2005

Test methods for accessories for power cables with rated voltages from 6 kV (Um = 7,2 kV) up to 36 kV (Um = 42 kV)

Specifies the test methods to be used for type testing accessories for power cables with rated voltage from 3,6/6 (7,2) kV up to 18/30 (36) kV. Test methods are specified for accessories for extruded and paper insulated cables according to EN 60502-2 and EN 60055-1 respectively. Significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition are as follows: a) a test in water has been added for stop ends; b) the heating cycles voltage test has been revised to clarify testing in air and water; c) the testing conditions for the short-circuit tests have been redefined; d) additional information has been provided for testing separable connectors with a metallic housing; e) tests not required by IEC, i.e. an immersion test for outdoor terminations and an impact test, have been included in order to have a common test method document with CENELEC under the IEC/CLC Dresden agreement.

Prüfverfahren für Starkstromkabelgarnituren mit einer Nennspannung von 6 kV (Um = 7,2 kV) bis 36 kV (Um = 42 kV)

Méthodes d'essais des accessoires de câbles d'énergie de tensions assignées de 6 kV (Um = 7,2 kV) à 36 kV (Um = 42 kV)

Définit les méthodes d'essais applicables aux essais de type des accessoires de câbles d'énergie de tensions assignées de 3,6/6 (7,2) kV à 18/30 (36) kV inclus. Ces méthodes d'essais sont spécifiques aux accessoires pour câbles à isolant extrudé et pour câbles isolés au papier selon la EN 60502-2 et la EN 60055-1. Les changements techniques significatifs par rapport à l'édition précédente sont les suivants: un essai dans l'eau a été ajouté pour les bouts perdus; l'essai des cycles thermiques sous tension a été révisé pour donner plus de clarté aux méthodes d'essai dans l'eau ou dans l'air; les conditions de réalisation des essais de court-circuit ont été redéfinies; une information additionnelle a été apportée pour essayer les connecteurs séparables comportant un boîtier métallique; des essais non requis par la CEI, c'est-à-dire un essai d'immersion pour les extrémités extérieures et un essai d'impact, ont été inclus pour avoir un document de méthodes d'essai commun avec le CENELEC dans le cadre de l'agrément CEI/CLC de Dresde.
