1.1 These test methods cover procedures for testing hookup wire.
1.2 For the purposes of these test methods, hookup wire insulation includes all components of the insulation system used on single insulated conductors or an assembly of single insulated conductors such as a cable bundle and harness or flat ribbon cable. The insulating materials include not only the primary insulation over the conductor, but also insulating jackets over shielded constructions.
1.3 The test procedures and their locations are as follows:
Section Axial Stability (Longitudinal Change) After Thermal Exposure 21 Bondability of Insulation to Potting Compounds 19 Capacitance 9 to 12 Cold Bend Test 26 Concentricity 16 Crush Resistance 20 Dielectric Breakdown Voltage 5 Dimensions 15 Dry-Arc Tracking 29 Dynamic Cut-Through 22 Fluid Immersion 23 High Temperature Shock 24 Insulation-Continuity Proof Tests 13 Insulation Resistance 6 Partial Discharge (Corona) Inception and Extinction Voltage 25 Relative Thermal Life and Temperature Index 14 Strip Force 27 Surface Resistance 7 Tensile Properties 17 Vertical Flame Test 18 Voltage Rating of Hook-Up Wire A2 Voltage Withstand Test 8 Wet Arc-Tracking 28
1.4 The values stated in SI are to be regarded as the standard.
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific precaution statements, see Note 10, 12.4.1.8, 18.1.1.2, and Notes 19 and 21.
