Overview

EN 60317-59:2016 (CLC adoption of IEC 60317-59:2015) specifies requirements for polyamide‑imide enameled round copper winding wire, class 240. It applies to single‑coated enamelled round copper wires used for electrical windings, covering nominal conductor diameters from 0.180 mm up to and including 1.600 mm for both grade 1 and grade 2. The standard defines performance, test methods, and acceptance criteria for insulation, mechanical and thermal properties relevant to wound electrical equipment.

Key Topics and Requirements

• Thermal class and heat resistance: Class 240 requires a minimum temperature index of 240 and a minimum heat shock temperature of 260 °C. The elevated temperature for breakdown voltage tests is specified as 240 °C.
• Dimensions and electrical resistance: Nominal diameters follow Clause 4 of IEC 60317-0-1:2013; electrical resistance requirements reference the general part.
• Mechanical properties: Tests for elongation, springiness, flexibility and adherence reference IEC 60317-0-1; the peel test uses a constant K = 75 mm.
• Cut‑through and abrasion resistance:
  • Cut‑through: No failure within 2 minutes at 450 °C.
  • Resistance to abrasion: Table 1 lists minimum average forces and minimum forces per measurement to failure for nominal diameters between 0.250 mm and 1.600 mm for grades 1 and 2.
• Chemical and electrical endurance: Requirements include resistance to solvents, continuity of insulation, breakdown voltage, resistance to refrigerants and transformer oil, solderability, and pin hole tests.
• Packaging: Clause 30 addresses packaging and delivery conditions.
• Normative references: This part is to be read in conjunction with IEC 60317-0-1:2013 and related IEC test-method standards (e.g., IEC 60851 series).

Applications and Practical Use

This standard is intended for manufacturers, specifiers and test laboratories involved with:

• Motor and transformer manufacturers specifying enamelled copper winding wire with high thermal stability.
• Design engineers who select winding wire for high‑temperature or demanding insulation environments.
• Quality assurance and testing labs performing acceptance tests on enameled winding wire.
• Procurement teams requiring compliance verification for insulated wires used for windings.

Use cases include high‑temperature motors, power transformers, aerospace and industrial equipment where polyamide‑imide enamel provides superior thermal and mechanical performance.
