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 provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
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 60684-3-212 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 15:
Standards on specifications for electrical Insulating materials.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1998, and constitutes a
technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant changes with regards to the previous edition:
Replacement of the thermal endurance test method according to IEC 60216 with a long term
ageing test, i.e. 3 000 h at the recommended maximum temperature found suitable for use, to
provide safe thermal test data within a workable time scale.

INTRODUCTION
This International Standard is part of a series which deals with flexible insulating sleeving for
electrical purposes.
The series consists of three parts:
Part 1: Definitions and general requirements (IEC 60684-1)
Part 2: Methods of test (IEC 60684-2)
Part 3: Specifications for individual types of sleeving (IEC 60684-3)
This standard is one of the sheets comprising Part 3, as follows:
Sheet 212: Heat-shrinkable polyolefin sleevings.

FLEXIBLE INSULATING SLEEVING –
Part 3: Specifications for individual types of sleeving –
Sheet 212: Heat-shrinkable polyolefin sleevings
1 Scope
This standard gives the requirements for four types of heat-shrinkable polyolefin sleevings
suitable for use at temperatures up to 135 °C.
Type A Flame retarded, shrink ratio 2:1
Type B Not flame retarded, shrink ratio 2:1
Type C Flame retarded, shrink ratio 3:1
Type D Not flame retarded shrink ratio 3:1
These sleevings are normally supplied with internal diameters up to 102 mm for shrink ratios of
2:1 and up to 39 mm for shrink ratios of 3:1 and in the following colours for types A and C:
black, brown, red, yellow, green, blue, orange, violet, grey, white and green/yellow. Types B
and D are transparent.
Sizes or colours other than those specifically listed in this standard may be available as custom
items. These items are considered to comply with this standard if they comply with the property
requirements listed in Tables 3, 4, 5 and 6 except for dimensions and mass.
Materials which conform to this specification meet established levels of performance. However,
the selection of a material by a user for a specific application should be based on the actual
requirements necessary for adequate performance in that application and not based on this
specification alone.
