It is not intended that a com
42、plete testing programme shall be carried out on every length of conductor and cable. When the purchaser wishes to specify acceptance tests or other quality procedures, it is essential that agreement be reached between the purchaser and the manufacturer by the time of ordering. 4 Cable construction 4
43、.1 Conductor 4.1.1 Conductor material The conductor shall consist of annealed copper, uniform in quality and free from defects. The properties of the copper shall be in accordance with IEC 60028. 4.1.2 Type of conductor The conductor shall consist of a single strand circular in section. The nominal
44、diameter shall be at least 0,4 mm. 4.1.3 Conductor-finish The conductor shall be plain. 4.1.4 Continuity of conductor Joints in the conductor are permitted provided that the tensile strength of a joint is not less than 90 % of the tensile strength of the unjointed conductor.

For cellular insulation, the cells produced by the expan
46、ding process shall be uniformly distributed circumferentially and should be substantially non-intercommunicating. The material for the insulation shall be a virgin thermoplastic compound suitably stabilized. Examples of suitable materials are: Polyethylene. Polypropylene. 4.2.2 Insulation thickness
47、The insulation shall be continuous and shall have a thickness such that the completed cable will meet the electrical requirements specified. 4.2.3 Colour of insulated conductor The insulated conductors shall be coloured. Colours shall be readily identifiable and shall correspond reasonably with the
48、standard colours shown in IEC 60304. 4.3 Cabling element A cabling element (Figure 1) shall be: - a pair of two insulated conductors twisted together and designated wire a and b respectively, or - a quad of four insulated conductors twisted together and designated wire a, wire c, wire b, and wire d
49、respectively. The maximum length of lay in the finished cable shall not exceed 150 mm. NOTE Forming the element with a variable lay can lead to the infrequent but acceptable occurrence of the maximum lay being longer than specified. 4.4 Stranding The cable elements shall be formed into a number of sub-units or units which can be stranded in
