COMMON TEST METHODS FOR INSULATING

Part 3: Methods specific to PVC compounds
Section One — Pressure test at high temperature
Tests for resistance to cracking
FOREWORD
1) The formal decisions or agreements of the I E C on technical matters, prepared by Technical Committees on which all
the National Committees having a special interest therein are represented, express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the subjects dealt with.
2)
They have the form of recommendations for international use and they are accepted by the National Committees in that
sense.
3) In order to promote international unification, the I E C expresses the wish that all National Committees should adopt
the text of the I E C recommendation for their national rules in so far as national conditions will permit. Any divergence
between the I E C recommendation and the corresponding national rules should, as far as possible, be clearly indicated
in the latter.
PREFACE
This standard has been prepared by I E C Technical Committee No. 20: Electric Cables.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
Six Months' Rule Report on Voting
20(CO)158 20(CO)169
Further information can be found in the Report on Voting indicated in the table above.
The following I E C publications are quoted in this standard:

and Sheath.

COMMON TEST METHODS FOR INSULATING
AND SHEATHING MATERIALS OF ELECTRIC CABLES
Part 3: Methods specific to PVC compounds
Section One — Pressure test at high temperature
Tests for resistance to cracking
1. Scope
This standard specifies the test methods to be used for testing polymeric insulating and
sheathing materials of electric cables for power distribution and telecommunications includ-
ing cables used on ships.
This Section One of Part 3 gives the methods for pressure test at high temperature and for
tests for resistance to cracking, which apply to PVC compounds.
2. Test values
Full test conditions (such as temperatures, durations, etc.) and full test requirements are
not specified in this standard; it is intended that they should be specified by the standard
dealing with the relevant type of cable.
Any test requirements which are given in this standard may be modified by the relevant
cable standard to suit the needs of a particular type of cable.
3. Applicability
Conditioning values and testing parameters are specified for the most common types of
insulating and sheathing compounds and of cables, wires and cords.
4. Type tests and other tests
The test methods described in this standard are intended, in the first instance, to be used
for type tests. In certain tests, where there are essential differences between the conditions for
type tests and those for more frequent tests, such as routine tests, these differences are
indicated.
Pre-conditioning
5.
All the tests shall be carried out not less than 16 h after the extrusion of the insulating or
sheathing compounds.
6. Test temperature
Unless otherwise specified, tests shall be carried out at room temperature.

7. Median value
When several test results have been obtained and ordered in an increasing or decreasing
succession, the median value is the middle value if the number of available values is odd, and
is the mean of the two middle values if the number is even.

8.1 Test for insulations
8.1.1 Sampling
For each core to be tested, three adjacent pieces shall be taken from a sample having a
length of 250 mm to 500 mm. The length of each piece shall be 50 mm to 100 mm.
The cores of flat cords without sheaths shall not be separated.
8.1.2 Preparation of test pieces
From each core piece taken in accordance with Sub-clause 8.1.1, any covering including
semi-conducting layer, if any, shall be removed mechanically. According to the type of cable,
the test piece may have a circular or sector-shaped cross-section.
8.1.3 Position of each test piece in the test apparatus
The indentation device is shown in Figure 1, page 20, and consists of a rectangular blade
with an edge 0.70 ± 0.01 mm wide, which can be pressed against the test piece. Each test
piece shall be placed in the position shown in Figure 1. Flat cords without sheaths shall be
laid on their flat side. Test pieces having a small diameter shall be fixed on the support in
such a manner that they do not curve under the pressure of the blade. Test pieces of
sector-shaped cores shall be placed on a support provided with a fitting sector-shaped profile
as shown in Figure 1. The force shall be applied in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the
core; the blade shall also be perpendicular to the axis of the core.

measurements being made at three different places on the assembled cores).
The force applied upon the piece of flat cord without sheath shall be twice the value given
by the above formula, where D is the mean value of the minor dimension of the test piece
