Cable cleats for electrical installations
This International Standard specifies requirements and tests for cable cleats used for securing cables in electrical installations and for intermediate restraints used for holding cables together in formation in electrical installations. Cable cleats provide resistance to electromechanical forces where declared. This document includes cable cleats that rely on a mounting surface specified by the manufacturer for axial and/or lateral retention of cables. Various types of cable cleats and intermediate restraints are shown in Annex A. NOTE Requirements for manufacturers in this document also apply to importers and responsible vendors where appropriate. This document does not apply to cable ties.

L'IEC 61914:2021 spécifie les exigences et les essais relatifs aux brides de câbles utilisées pour la fixation des câbles dans les installations électriques et aux dispositifs intermédiaires de tenue utilisés pour le maintien des câbles en formation dans des installations électriques. Les brides de câbles fournissent une résistance aux forces électromécaniques lorsque cela est déclaré. Le présent document inclut les brides de câbles qui reposent sur une surface de montage spécifiée par le fabricant pour le maintien axial et/ou latéral des câbles. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2015. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
rationalisation des exigences relatives aux mandrins d’essai, détaillées dans la section Généralités sur les essais (Article 5);
ajout de la définition de la fourrure et définition des exigences d’essai dans lesquelles les fourrures et autres accessoires sont utilisés;
ajout des définitions BT, MT et HT pour les câbles et définition des exigences d'essai en cas d'utilisation de câbles MT et HT;
ajout de nouvelles classes de tenue à la corrosion pour les produits revêtus;
ajout de nouvelles exigences et d'un essai de durabilité et de lisibilité des marquages;
ajout de nouvelles exigences d'essai pour les essais de tenue à la charge axiale des brides pour plusieurs câbles;
ajout d’exigences d’essai de tenue à la charge latérale pour les dispositifs intermédiaires de tenue.
Kabelske objemke za elektroinštalacije (IEC 61914:2021)
Ta mednarodni standard določa zahteve in preskuse za kabelske objemke, ki se uporabljajo za pritrditev kablov v električnih inštalacijah, ter vmesne naslone, ki se uporabljajo za ohranjanje formacije kablov v električnih inštalacijah. Kabelske objemke zagotavljajo odpornost na morebitne elektromehanske sile. Ta standard vključuje kabelske objemke za montažo na površino, na katero se po navedbah proizvajalca lahko pritrdi kable po osi in/ali bočno.
OPOMBA: Zahteve za proizvajalce v tem dokumentu veljajo tudi za uvoznike in odgovorne prodajalce, kadar je primerno.
Ta standard se ne uporablja za kabelske spojke.

(informative)
Relationship between this European Standard and the safety
objectives of Directive 2014/35/EU [2014 OJ L96] aimed to be
covered
This European Standard has been prepared under a Commission’s standardization request relating to
harmonized standards in the field of the Low Voltage Directive, M/511, to provide one voluntary means
of conforming to safety objectives of Directive 2014/35/EU of the European Parliament and of the
Council of 26 February 2014 on the harmonization of the laws of the Member States relating to the
making available on the market of electrical equipment designed for use within certain voltage limits
[2014 OJ L96].
Once this standard is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive,
compliance with the normative clauses of this standard given in Table ZZ.1 confers, within the limits of
the scope of this standard, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding safety objectives of
that Directive, and associated EFTA regulations.
