PRESSBOARD AND PRESSPAPER
FOR ELECTRICAL PURPOSES –
Part 2: Methods of tests
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60641-2 has been prepared by subcommittee 15C: Specifications,
of IEC technical committee 15: Insulating materials.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, published in 1979, and amendment
1 (1993). This edition constitutes a technical revision.
The main changes with respect to the previous edition are listed below:
The following test methods have been cancelled:

For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
specimen
rectangle of paper or board cut to given dimensions from sheets or reels drawn from selected
units
3.2
test piece
quantity of paper or board on which each single determination is carried out in accordance
with the method of test.
NOTE The test piece may be taken from a specimen; in some instances, it may be the specimen itself.
4 General notes on tests
4.1 Conditioning
a) For materials with a thickness of <0,5 mm
Unless otherwise specified, the specimen after being cut, shall be conditioned for not less
than 16 h in an atmosphere of 23 °C ± 2 K and (50 ± 5) % relative humidity. Test pieces

4.4 Results
As a general rule, the central value is reported as the result. When agreed between parties,
the mean value may be reported. This must be noted in the test report.
5 Thickness
2
For material with a grammage of less than 224 g/m , use the procedure as described in
2
ISO 534. For materials with a grammage of 224 g/m or more, use the following test:
5.1 Test apparatus
One of the test apparatus described below shall be used.
NOTE In case of dispute, the test apparatus should be the one described in 5.1.2.
5.1.1 Screw type micrometer
An external screw type micrometer having measuring faces of 6 mm to 8 mm diameter. The
measuring faces shall be flat to within 0,001 mm and parallel to within 0,003 mm. The pitch of
the screw shall be 0,5 mm and the graduations shall be 50 divisions 0,01 mm, enabling
readings to be estimated to 0,002 mm. The pressure exerted on the test piece shall be
0,1 MPa to 0,3 MPa.
NOTE For thin, soft material (for instance, board type B.5.1, 1 mm) the error due to the pressure of the
micrometer can be as great as 2 % of the measured value.
5.1.2 Dead weight micrometer
A dead weight dial type micrometer having two ground and lapped measuring concentric
circular surfaces flat to within 0,001 mm and parallel to within 0,003 mm. The upper surface
shall be 6 mm to 8 mm diameter. The lower surface shall be larger than the upper surface.
The upper surface shall move on the axis perpendicular to the surfaces. The dial shall be
graduated to read directly to 0,002 mm. The frame of the micrometer shall be of such rigidity
that a force of 15 N applied to the dial housing, out of contact with either the weight or the
presser foot spindle, will produce a deflection of frame not greater than 0,002 mm as
indicated on the micrometer dial. The pressure exerted on the test piece shall be 0,1 MPa to
0,3 MPa.
5.1.3 Dial gauge micrometer
As an alternative to 5.1.2, a "Dial gauge type micrometer" with the following characteristics
may be used:
Diameter of the upper measuring surface: (14,3 ± 0,5) mm.
Diameter of the lower measuring surface: bigger than the upper one.
Pressure exerted on the test piece: (0,055 ± 0,005) MPa.
The two measuring surfaces shall be parallel to within 0,005 mm or 1 %.
NOTE The values recorded with this apparatus could be significantly different from the ones recorded with the two
other types.
5.2 Setting gauge
The setting gauge used to check the instruments shall be accurate to within ±0,001 mm of
nominal thickness. The thickness indicated by the instruments shall not differ by more than
0,005 mm from the gauge block.

5.3 Procedure
Measure the thickness of the pressboard or the presspaper in the as received condition using
one of the instruments described in 5.1 at points not less than 20 mm from the edges.
For the pressboard, the number of measurements shall be eight, two along each edge. For
presspaper in reels, 5.1 of IEC 60554-2 must be followed. When measuring across the width
of a reel, the number of measurements shall be five per metre.
In case of dispute, cut a strip 40 mm wide across the full width of the material and, from this
strip, at eight equally spaced positions, cut eight test pieces, each not less than 40 mm long.
Condition the test pieces in accordance with 4.1 and measure the thickness of each specimen
at a point near the centre of each test piece using the instrument described in 5.1.2.
5.4 Results
The central value is taken as the result and reported together with the minimum and maximum
values.
6 Apparent density
The test shall be carried out on three conditioned test pieces; one determination is made on
each of the three test pieces.
2
Use rectangular test pieces of an area not less than 100 cm and determine the mass to an
–4
accuracy of 10 × mass of test piece.
Make two measurements of the length and two of the width of each test piece to an accuracy
of 0,1 mm at points at least 12 mm from the corners.
Determine the thickness by making eight measurements as indicated in 5.3 and calculate the
mean value of the measurements.
