The diameter of the test cylinder shall be:
− Single core armoured cables : 20 x D
− Single core unarmoured cables : 25 x D
− Three core armoured cables : 12 x D
− Three core unarmoured cables : 15 x D
Where D = outer diameter of the cable.
2.5 Measurement of ingress of water
After the bending test (see 2.4.3) a length of approximately 30 m of completed cable is heated
by passing a current through two conductors until the conductor reaches a temperature of
50 °C. One cable end is sealed by means of a lead cap soldered onto the lead sheath and the
other end is sawn off straight and left open.
The cable on the drum is immersed in a water bath, the open end is kept 80 cm below the
water surface. The temperature of water shall be (15 ± 5)°C.
After exposure to the water for 48 hours the ingress of water into the cable is measured. All
materials under the lead sheath are removed and immersed in oil at a temperature between
130 ° and 150 °C. The presence of water is shown by the sizzling of water in hot oil.
