Plastic films for electrical purposes - Part 3: Specifications for individual materials - Sheet 1: Biaxially oriented polypropylene (PP) film for capacitors (IEC 60674-3-1:2021)

This sheet of IEC 60674-3 gives the requirements for biaxially oriented polypropylene film
having a smooth or rough surface, corona treated when required for vacuum metallization. The
films are for use as dielectric in capacitors.
Materials which conform to this specification meet established levels of performance. However,
the selection of a material by a user for a specific application is 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

IEC 60674-3-1:2021 est disponible sous forme de IEC 60674-3-1:2021 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.
L'IEC 60674-3-1:2021 donne les exigences relatives aux films de polypropylène biorienté à surface lisse ou rugueuse, avec traitement par effet couronne, si cela est exigé, pour la métallisation sous vide. Les films sont utilisés comme diélectrique dans les condensateurs. Les matériaux conformes à la présente spécification satisfont à des niveaux établis de performance. Toutefois, le choix d’un matériau par un utilisateur pour une application spécifique repose sur les exigences réelles nécessaires pour obtenir des performances adéquates de l’application concernée, et non sur la seule présente spécification. Mise en garde relative à la sécurité: Il incombe à l’utilisateur des méthodes contenues ou citées en référence dans le présent document d’assurer qu’elles sont utilisées d’une manière sûre. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 1998 ainsi que l’Amendement 1:2011. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
- ce document a été entièrement revu sur le plan rédactionnel et technique et inclus dans les normes de la série IEC 60674;
- les méthodes d’essai ont été mises à jour pour refléter l’état actuel de la technique.

PLASTIC FILMS FOR ELECTRICAL PURPOSES –

Part 3: Specifications for individual materials –
Sheet 1: Biaxially oriented polypropylene (PP) films for capacitors

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 conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
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.
IEC 60674-3-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 15: Solid electrical insulating
materials.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1998 and
Amendment 1:2011. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
