Overview
EN 60674-3-2:1998 (adopted by CLC) specifies requirements for balanced biaxially oriented polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films intended for use as electrical insulation. This part of the EN/IEC 60674 series defines material characteristics and quality expectations for PET insulating films used in electrical and electronic equipment. The standard is referenced from IEC 60674-3-2:1992 and has been adopted in national bodies (e.g., SIST EN 60674-3-2:2002).
Key topics and requirements
While the full standard provides detailed clauses, the document principally covers:
- Material definition and scope - defines balanced biaxially oriented PET film for electrical insulation applications.
- Physical and dimensional requirements - film thickness, dimensional stability and tolerances, surface quality and appearance.
- Electrical properties - essential dielectric performance parameters and requirements appropriate for insulation use (e.g., dielectric strength, surface/volume resistivity).
- Mechanical characteristics - tensile strength, elongation, and handling robustness relevant to processing and end-use.
- Thermal and environmental behavior - suitability under expected temperature ranges, moisture absorption and stability under conditioning.
- Marking, identification and documentation - required product marking, manufacturer declarations, and accompanying test documentation.
- Conformity and testing - reference to test methods and sampling procedures used to verify compliance (linked to IEC test methods where applicable).
Note: the standard sets requirements at a material-specification level rather than prescribing specific end-product designs.
Practical applications
EN 60674-3-2 is directly relevant where PET film is chosen as an insulating material. Typical applications include:
- Capacitor dielectrics and film capacitors
- Insulation layers in transformers, coils and laminates
- Insulating separators in electrical devices and power electronics
- Wire and cable components, flexible printed circuits and flexible insulating barriers
- Manufacturers of PET film, material specification engineers, and component designers selecting insulation materials
Who uses this standard
- Material and film manufacturers certifying PET film for electrical use
- Electrical component designers and OEMs specifying insulation materials
- Quality and compliance engineers assessing supplier conformity
- Test laboratories performing electrical and physical testing
- Standards bodies and procurement teams referencing harmonized material requirements
Related standards
- IEC/EN 60674 series (plastic films for electrical purposes)
- Product- and application-specific insulation standards and test methods (refer to relevant IEC/EN documents)
