Electrical insulating materials - Thermal endurance properties - Part 3: Instructions for calculating thermal endurance characteristics
IEC 60216-3:2006 specifies the calculation procedures to be used for deriving thermal endurance characteristics from experimental data obtained in accordance with the instructions of IEC 60216-1 and IEC 60216-2, using fixed ageing temperatures and variable ageing times. The experimental data may be obtained using non-destructive, destructive or proof tests. Data obtained from non-destructive or proof tests may be incomplete, in that measurement of times taken to reach the endpoint may have been terminated at some point after the median time but before all specimens have reached end-point. The procedures are illustrated by worked examples, and suitable computer programs are recommended to facilitate the calculations. The major technical changes with regard to the first edition concern an updating of Table C.2. In addition, the scope has been extended to cover a greater range of data characteristics, particularly with regard to incomplete data, as often obtained from proof test criteria. The greater flexibility of use should lead to more efficient employment of the time available for ageing purposes. Finally, the procedures specified in this part of IEC 60216 have been extensively tested and have been used to calculate results from a large body of experimental data obtained in accordance with other parts of the standard. Annex E "Computer program" has been completely reworked.

Matériaux isolants électriques - Propriétés d'endurance thermique - Partie 3: Instructions pour le calcul des caractéristiques d'endurance thermique
La CEI 60216-3:2006 spécifie les méthodes de calcul à utiliser pour obtenir les caractéristiques d'endurance thermique à partir des données expérimentales obtenues conformément aux instructions de la CEI 60216-1 et de la CEI 60216-2, en utilisant des températures de vieillissement fixes et des temps de vieillissement variables. Les données expérimentales peuvent être obtenues en utilisant des essais non destructifs, des essais destructifs et des essais d'épreuve. Les données obtenues à partir d'essais non destructifs ou d'essais d'épreuve peuvent être incomplètes, car la mesure des temps mis pour atteindre le point limite peut avoir été arrêtée à un moment situé après le temps médian, mais avant que toutes les éprouvettes n'aient atteint le point limite. Les méthodes sont illustrées par des exemples pratiques, et des programmes informatiques adaptés sont recommandés pour faciliter les calculs. Les modifications majeures par rapport à la première édition concernent la mise à jour du Tableau C.2. De plus, le domaine d'application a été élargi pour couvrir une plus grande gamme de caractéristiques de données, en particulier en ce qui concerne les données incomplètes, comme cela est souvent le cas pour les données obtenues à partir de critères d'essai d'épreuve. Il convient que cette plus grande souplesse d'utilisation conduise à un emploi plus efficace du temps disponible pour les essais de vieillissement. Enfin, les méthodes spécifiées dans cette partie de la CEI 60216 ont été largement soumises aux essais et ont été utilisées pour calculer les résultats à partir d'un grand nombre de données expérimentales obtenues conformément aux autres parties de la norme. L'Annexe E "Programme informatique" a été complètement remaniée.

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 60216-3 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 112:
Evaluation and qualification of electrical insulating materials and systems .
This second edition of IEC 60216-3 cancels and replaces the first edition, published in 2002,
and constitutes a technical revision.
The major technical changes with regard to the first edition concern an updating of Table C.2.
In addition, the scope has been extended to cover a greater range of data characteristics,
particularly with regard to incomplete data, as often obtained from proof test criteria. The
greater flexibility of use should lead to more efficient employment of the time available for
ageing purposes. Finally, the procedures specified in this part of IEC 60216 have been
extensively tested and have been used to calculate results from a large body of experimental
data obtained in accordance with other parts of the standard. Annex E “Computer program”
has been completely reworked.
