Cable management systems - Cable ties for electrical installations
IEC 62275:2022 specifies requirements for metallic, non-metallic and composite cable ties and their associated fixing devices as a means used for managing or securing the wiring systems in electrical installations. Cable ties and associated fixing devices can also be suitable for other applications, such as support of wiring systems, and where so used, additional requirements can apply. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2018. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- scope clarification,
- new definitions,
- deletion of the exception for the stabilization of the moisture content,
- possibility to carry out tensile strength tests with dead weights,
- differentiation of rubber and acrylic adhesive fixings,
- clarification for mechanical testing of integral devices,
- clarifications on Table 6,
- clarifications in 9.1,
- the minimum installation temperature test for cable ties is carried out only when the declared minimum temperature is lower than 0 °C,
- a requirement that metallic cable ties be classified according to 6.2.3,
- definition of colours to be tested for contribution to fire,
- addition of a "some countries" note in Clause 10,
- clarification of the mounting of fixing devices in the resistance to ultraviolet light test,
- clarification on the testing of integral devices in the resistance to ultraviolet light test.
Systèmes de câblage - Colliers pour installations électriques
L'IEC 62275:2022 spécifie les exigences pour les colliers métalliques, non métalliques et composites, ainsi que pour leurs accessoires de fixation associés, comme un moyen utilisé pour l’aménagement et la fixation des systèmes de câblage dans les installations électriques. Les colliers et leurs accessoires de fixation associés peuvent également être utilisés pour d’autres applications, comme le soutien des systèmes de câblage et, dans ce cas, des exigences supplémentaires peuvent s’appliquer. Cette quatrième édition annule et remplace la troisième édition parue en 2018. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’édition précédente:
- une clarification du domaine d’application;
- de nouvelles définitions;
- la suppression de l’exception relative au conditionnement pour atteindre la reprise d’humidité;
- la possibilité d’effectuer des essais de tenue à la traction avec des poids morts;
- la différenciation des fixations adhésives en caoutchouc et en acrylique;
- une clarification pour les essais mécaniques des accessoires intégrés;
- des clarifications du Tableau 6;
- des clarifications de 9.1;
- l’essai des colliers à la température minimale d’installation est effectué uniquement lorsque la température minimale déclarée est inférieure à 0 °C;
- une exigence selon laquelle les colliers métalliques sont classés conformément à 6.2.3;
- la définition des couleurs à soumettre à essai en matière de contribution au feu;
- l’ajout d’une note "Dans certains pays" à l’Article 10;
- la clarification du montage des accessoires de fixation dans l’essai de tenue au rayonnement ultraviolet;
- la clarification de l’essai des accessoires intégrés dans l’essai de tenue au rayonnement ultraviolet.

CABLE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS –
CABLE TIES FOR ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS
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 itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide confor
