EN 13600:2013 (E) 3 Foreword This document (EN 13600:2013) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 133 “Copper and copper alloys”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by December 2013, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by December 2013. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 13600:2002. In comparison with EN 13600:2002, the following significant technical changes have been made:  The Scope has been expanded.  The outside diameters have been expanded.  The wall thickness has been expanded.  Cu-OFE (CW009A) and Cu-PHCE (CW022A) have been added.  Tolerance on the outside diameter of round tubes and on wall thicknesses has been completely revised. Within its programme of work, Technical Committee CEN/TC 133 requested CEN/TC 133/WG 4 "Extruded and drawn products, forgings and scrap" to prepare the following revision of the standard: EN 13600:2002, Copper and copper alloys — Seamless copper tubes for electrical purposes. The products specified in this European Standard are those which are especially suitable for electrical purposes, i.e. with specified electrical properties. Copper tubes for general purposes are specified in EN 12449. Annex A (informative) gives guidance on the characteristics of coppers for electrical purposes.
This is one of a series of European Standards for copper products for electrical purposes. Other copper products are specified as follows:  EN 13599, Copper and copper alloys — Copper plate, sheet and strip for electrical purposes  EN 13601, Copper and copper alloys — Copper rod, bar and wire for general electrical purposes  EN 13602, Copper and copper alloys — Drawn, round copper wire for the manufacture of electrical conductors  EN 13604, Copper and copper alloys — Semiconductor devices, electronic and vacuum products made from high conductivity copper  EN 13605, Copper and copper alloys — Copper profiles and profiled wire for electrical purposes According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, SIST EN 13600:2013

NOTE Although material symbol designations used in this standard might be the same as those in other standards using the designation system in ISO 1190-1, the detailed composition requirements are not necessarily the same. 4.1.3 Number The material number designation is in accordance with the system given in EN 1412. 4.2 Material condition For the purposes of this standard, the following designations, which are in accordance with the system given in EN 1173, apply for the material condition: D
Material condition for the product as cold worked without specified mechanical properties; H. Material condition designated by the minimum value of hardness requirement for the product with mandatory
hardness requirements; R. Material condition designated by the minimum value of tensile strength requirement for the product with
mandatory tensile strength, 0,2 % proof strength and elongation requirements. Products in the H. condition may be specified to Vickers or Brinell hardness. The material condition designation H. is the same for both hardness test methods. Exact conversion between the material conditions designated H. and R. is not possible. Material condition is designated by only one of the above designations. 4.3 Product The product designation provides a standardised pattern of designation from which a rapid and unequivocal description of a product can be conveyed in communication. It provides mutual comprehension at the international level with regard to products which meet the requirements of the relevant European Standard. The product designation is no substitute for the full content of the standard. The product designation for products to this standard shall consist of: a) denomination (tube); SIST EN 13600:2013
