Electric and optical fibre cables - Test methods for non-metallic materials - Part 512: Mechanical tests - Tensile strength and elongation at break after conditioning at elevated temperature - Methods specific to polyethylene and polypropylene compounds

This Part 512 of IEC 60811 describes the procedure for testing tensile strength and elongation at break after conditioning at elevated temperature. It is specific to polyethylene and polypropylene compounds. This test is intended for samples from filled cables, of polyolefin insulations with a wall thickness of more than 0,8 mm and for polyolefin sheaths in direct contact with filling compound.

Câbles électriques et câbles à fibres optiques - Méthodes d'essai pour les matériaux non-métalliques - Partie 512: Essais mécaniques - Résistance à la traction et allongement à la rupture après conditionement à température élevée - Méthodes spécifiques aux mélanges de polyéthylène et de polypropylène

La CEI 60811-512:2012 décrit la procédure à suivre pour réaliser les essais de résistance à la traction et d'allongement à la rupture après conditionnement à température élevée. Elle est spécifique aux mélanges polyéthylène et polypropylène. Cet essai concerne les enveloppes isolantes en polyoléfine d'épaisseur supérieure à 0,8 mm et les gaines polyoléfines en contact direct avec les matières de remplissage. Cet essai est spécifique aux câbles remplis. La CEI 60811-512:2012 annule et remplace l'Article 8 de la CEI 60811-4-2:2004, qui est supprimée. L'ensemble des informations relatives aux remplacements figure dans l'Annexe A de la CEI 60811-100:2012. Aucune modification technique n'a été effectuée par rapport à l'édition précédente; voir cependant l'avant-propos de la CEI 60811-100:2012.[
