Electric and optical fibre cables - Test methods for non-metallic materials - Part 509: Mechanical tests - Test for resistance of insulations and sheaths to cracking (heat shock test)
IEC 60811-509:2012 gives the procedure for the test for resistance of insulations and sheaths to cracking at an elevated temperature. IEC 60811-509:2012 cancels and replaces Clause 9 of IEC 60811-3-1:1985, which is withdrawn. Full details of the replacements are shown in Annex A of IEC 60811-100:2012. There are no specific technical changes with respect to the previous edition, but see the Foreword to IEC 60811-100:2012. This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 60811-100:2012.
