Dieses Dokument legt die Anforderungen an und Prüfverfahren für feuerbeständige oder feuerfeste elektrische Leitungen zur Verwendung in elektrischen Bordnetzen fest. Sie sind bei einer Nennwechselspan¬nung von 600 V ac, einer Frequenz von höchstens 2 000 Hz sowie einer Langzeittemperatur von bis zu 260 °C (Umgebungstemperatur zuzüglich des Temperaturanstiegs im Leiter) zu betreiben.
Diese Leitungen müssen außerdem eine bestimmte Spannungsfestigkeit beibehalten, wenn sie fünf (5) min (feuerbeständig) oder 15 min (feuerfest) einer Flamme von 1 100 °C ausgesetzt sind.

Ta dokument določa potrebne značilnosti in preskusne postopke za ognjevzdržne ali negorljive električne kable za uporabo v električnih sistemih letal. Uporabljajo naj se pri nazivni napetosti izmeničnega toka 600 V, največji frekvenci 2000 Hz in dolgotrajni temperaturi do 260 °C (temperatura okolice s povišanjem temperatur v prevodniku).
Kadar so izpostavljeni plamenu temperature 1100 °C, ti kabli po petih (5) minutah (ognjevzdržni) ali 15 minutah (negorljivi) izpostavljenosti ohranijo tudi določeno dielektrično moč.
