NON-IMPREGNATED DENSIFIED LAMINATED WOOD
FOR ELECTRICAL PURPOSES –
Part 1: Definitions, designation and general requirements

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 61061-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 15: Solid
electrical insulating materials.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 1998, and constitutes a
technical revision. The main changes from the previous edition are as follows:
– addition of application use and safety statements;
– redefinition of ring and sheet;
– appropriate additions to the subclauses;
– reformatting of text to bring it in line with current IEC document format.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:

NON-IMPREGNATED DENSIFIED LAMINATED WOOD
FOR ELECTRICAL PURPOSES –
Part 1: Definitions, designation and general requirements

1 Scope
This part of IEC 61061 includes the definitions required for the understanding of all three parts
of the standard, the designation of the material types and the general requirements applicable
to non-impregnated densified laminated wood for electrical purposes.
This specification is intended to cover only sheets and rings of nominal thicknesses between
6 mm and 100 mm, inclusive.
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.
Safety warning: It is the responsibility of the user of the methods contained or referred to in this
document to ensure that they are used in a safe manner.
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For
dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of
the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

transformers and switchgear

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply:
3.1
veneer
single non-laminated ply with a thickness of not more than 2,5 mm in the non-pressed
condition, for example produced from beech (fagus silvatica), North-American maple (acer
saccherem) or birch (betula pendula)
3.2
non-impregnated densified laminated wood
laminated wood made from layers of wood veneer bonded together under controlled conditions
of heat and pressure using a thermosetting synthetic resin adhesive

61061-1 © IEC:2006 – 5 –
3.3
sheet
material with parallel or crosswise arrangement of veneers
3.4
direction A and direction B
two directions in the plane of laminations, mutually at right angles, one of which is parallel with
an edge of the sheet
3.5
ring
ring form manufactured either by
a) cutting out the ring from a sheet made with crosswise arrangement of veneers (positioned
at 90° to one another);
b) pressing substantially tangentially arranged veneers laid up in a circular form; or
c) pressing veneers assembled in a circular form, with each layer arranged at 45° to the layer
preceding it
NOTE Because of the different methods of manufacture which may be used, the three types clearly differ in their
properties and therefore the required type of ring should be specified in the purchase contract.
4 Designation
4.1 General
The types of material covered by this specification shall be designated by:
– the shape of the material: sheet or ring;
– the number of the IEC standard: IEC 61061;
– a letter to denote the arrangement of the veneers according to 4.2;
– a digit to denote the range of densities according to 4.3;
– a letter to denote the kind of wood according to 4.4;
– the dimensions of the
• sheet: thickness in millimetres × width in millimetres × length in millimetres;
• ring: thickness in millimetres × radial ring width in millimetres × outer diameter in
millimetres.
4.2 Arrangements of veneers
The arrangement of veneers shall be denoted by the following letters:
P: parallel arrangement;
C: crosswise arrangement;
T: tangential arrangement;
A: veneers arranged at 45° to the preceding layer.
NOTE In arrangements P and T, for manufacturing reasons, up to 20 % of the veneers may be arranged in such a
manner that the fibres are perpendicular to the fibres of the rest of the veneers. When arranging the layers
crosswise, it is permissible to have two veneers on top of each other in the same direction, in order to compensate
for the variation in mass of each ply of veneer.
4.3 Apparent density in grams per cubic centimetre (g/cm )
The apparent density shall be denoted by the following digits:
