FOREWORD

This amendment to HD 620 S1:1996 has been prepared by WG 9 of CENELEC TC 20 "Electric cables".
CENELEC TC 20 confirmed at its meeting (Paris, May 2001) that the amendment should go to the Unique
Acceptance Procedure.

Some detailed amendments are made to Part 1. A list of additions and amendments to the particular sections
of Parts 5 to 9 is given in this Part 0.

The text of the draft was submitted to the Unique Acceptance Procedure in June 2002 and was approved by
CENELEC as amendment A2 to HD 620 S1:1996 on 2003-03-01.

The following dates were fixed:

- latest date by which the existence of the amendment
has to be announced at national level (doa) 2003-09-01

- latest date by which the amendment has to be implemented
at national level by publication of a harmonized
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2004-03-01

- latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the amendment have to be withdrawn (dow) 2006-03-01

14 Regular production monitoring
14.1 Long duration test HD 605, subclause 5.4.15
Sampling:
 Ageing duration: 1 year and 2 years


6 samples per year are taken from the
regular production ensuring an appropriate
distribution over the year an over
production lines for each case of ageing
duration (for example 2 sample per
2 month) .
14.2 Determination of residual strength
- a.c. step test
14.3 Description of evaluation method
 The evaluation of the test result will be
st nd
taken separately from 1 year to 2 year.

The method begins with the result from the
type test.
With ever subsequent result from the long
duration test the result with the lowest
sample number from the type test or the
oldest result of the long duration test is
excluded.
14.4 Requirements In discussion
* According to Section 2 'Design requirements' unless stated otherwise
1)
Sample tests shall be carried out on 10 % of a manufacturing lot of the same cable type, i.e. at least on one
cable length.
If any sample should fail in any of the sample tests requested it is permitted to choose one or two additional
sample(s) from the same cable length and to submit the additional sample(s) to the test or tests in which the
original sample failed.
The samples shall be taken at least 0,5 m from the cable end(s).
For the resampling procedure the following rules apply:
- Number of samples to be taken as for the first test;
- If for the first test one sample from both cable ends has to be taken, is it deemed sufficient to resample one
additional sample from the cable end the first sample of which failed.
2)
 Hot set test shall be carried out as follows:
Manufacturing lot
km Number of
lengths to be
Three stranded Single-core cables
tested
single-core cables
1
≤ 10 ≤ 20
2
> 10 ≤ 20 > 20 ≤ 40
3
> 20 ≤ 30 > 40 ≤ 60

The test voltages and test durations are preferred values. They were specified with regard to the experience made
in laboratories and under operating conditions in utility systems.
