MT 17 - TC 23/SC 23A/MT 17

IEC 62275:2022 specifies requirements for metallic, non-metallic and composite cable ties and their associated fixing devices as a means used for managing or securing the wiring systems in electrical installations. Cable ties and associated fixing devices can also be suitable for other applications, such as support of wiring systems, and where so used, additional requirements can apply. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2018. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- scope clarification,
- new definitions,
- deletion of the exception for the stabilization of the moisture content,
- possibility to carry out tensile strength tests with dead weights,
- differentiation of rubber and acrylic adhesive fixings,
- clarification for mechanical testing of integral devices,
- clarifications on Table 6,
- clarifications in 9.1,
- the minimum installation temperature test for cable ties is carried out only when the declared minimum temperature is lower than 0 °C,
- a requirement that metallic cable ties be classified according to 6.2.3,
- definition of colours to be tested for contribution to fire,
- addition of a "some countries" note in Clause 10,
- clarification of the mounting of fixing devices in the resistance to ultraviolet light test,
- clarification on the testing of integral devices in the resistance to ultraviolet light test.

IEC 62275:2018 specifies requirements for metallic, non-metallic and composite cable ties and their associated fixing devices used for the management and support of wiring systems in electrical installations.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2013. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) consideration of adhesive fixing devices,
b) revised and updated normative references,
c) modified definitions for metallic and composite cable ties,
d) new definitions,
e) improvement of test procedures,
f) new figures for typical arrangement of test assembly for fixing devices and for integral fixing devices.

IEC 62275:2013 specifies requirements for metallic, non-metallic and composite cable ties and their associated fixing devices used for the management and support of wiring systems in electrical installations. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2006 and constitutes a technical revision. It incorporates additional tables, an annex and figures as well as revisions to such that appeared in the first edition. In places the text has been substantially altered including:
- revised and updated normative references,
- integral cable ties and fixing devices,
- change in the range of the diameter of the test mandrel,
- general notes on tests,
- mechanical properties and associated tests as well as tests for resistance to ultraviolet light and corrosion.
