Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 6722-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 22, Road vehicles, Subcommittee SC 3, Electrical
and electronic equipment.
This fourth edition of ISO 6722-1 cancels and replaces ISO 6722:2006, which has been technically revised.
ISO 6722 consists of the following parts, under the general title Road vehicles — 60 V and 600 V single-core
cables:
 Part 1: Dimensions, test methods and requirements for copper conductor cables

 Part 2: Dimensions, test methods and requirements for aluminium conductor cables

ISO 6722-1:2011(E)
4.5 General test conditions
Unless specified otherwise, the device under test (DUT) shall be preconditioned for at least 16 h at a room
temperature (RT) of (23  5) °C and a relative humidity (RH) of 45 % to 75 %. Unless specified otherwise, all
tests other than “In process” tests shall be conducted at these conditions.
Where no tolerance is specified, all values shall be considered to be approximate.
When a.c. tests are performed, they shall be at 50 Hz or 60 Hz. Applications at higher frequencies may
require additional testing.
4.6 Ovens
An oven with air exchange, either natural or by pressure, should be used. The air shall enter the oven in such
a way that it flows over the surface of the test pieces and exits near the top of the oven. The oven shall have
not less than 8 and not more than 20 complete air changes per hour at the specified ageing temperature.
Forced air circulation, e.g. by a fan inside the oven may be used. However, in case of dispute, an oven without
forced air circulation shall be used.
4.7 Representative conductor sizes for testing
When a test is required, all combinations of conductor size, wall thickness, and insulation formulation shall
meet the appropriate requirements. However, if testing of representative conductor sizes is permitted (see
Table 3), compliance for a cable family may be demonstrated by testing examples of large and small
conductor sizes only. Permission to show compliance for a cable family by testing “representative conductor
sizes” shall be established by agreement between customer and supplier.
4.8 Recommended colours
A list of recommended colours is shown in Table C.1.
5 Tests and requirements
5.1 Outside cable diameter

This test is intended to verify that the cable outside diameter is within the required tolerances to fit seal and
harness dimension requirements.
5.1.2 Test Sample
Prepare a test sample of 3 m in length.
5.1.3 Test
Use a measuring device which shall not cause deformation. Take three sets of measurements at positions
separated by 1 m and record the highest and lowest outside cable diameter at each position.

ISO 6722-1:2011(E)
5.1.4 Requirement
All measurements shall be within the limits of the appropriate maximum and minimum “outside cable
diameter” specified in Table 4 and Table B.2. The values in Table 4 are normative. Since the values in
Table B.2 are informative, they are not required; however, they may be applied by agreement between

5.2.1 Purpose
This test is intended to verify that the cable insulation thickness is within the required tolerances to withstand
electrical, mechanical and chemical abuse.
5.2.2 Test samples
Prepare three test samples from a cable sample 3 m in length. Take the test samples at 1 m intervals. Strip
the insulation from the cable. A test sample consists of a thin cross-section of insulation. Take care not to
deform the test sample during the preparation process. If cable marking causes indentation of the insulation,
take the first test sample through this indentation.
5.2.3 Test
Use a measuring device which shall not cause deformation.
Place the test sample under the measuring equipment with the plane of the cut perpendicular to the optical
axis. Determine the minimum “insulation thickness”.

This test shall be carried out under production conditions. Subject all cables to this test. Other methods of test
may be used provided that insulation faults are detected with the same certainty.
5.6.4 Requirement
No breakdown shall occur when the earthed cable is drawn through the test electrode.
5.7 Insulation volume resistivity
5.7.1 Purpose
This test is intended to ensure limitation of leakage current by verifying that the volume resistivity meets the
requirements as specified.
5.7.2 Test sample
Prepare a test sample of 5 m length and remove 25 mm of insulation from each end.
5.7.3 Apparatus
Partially fill an electrically non-conductive vessel with tap water at a temperature of (70  2) °C. Use a
resistance measuring device with a d.c. voltage of 500 V. Voltages between 100 V and 500 V are allowed;
however, if a dispute arises, the referee apparatus shall be a resistance measuring device with a d.c. voltage
of 500 V.
5.7.4 Test
Immerse the test sample for 2 h with each end emerging from the bath by 250 mm. Apply the d.c. voltage
between the conductor and the bath. Measure the insulation resistance 1 min after application of the voltage.
