Publication date:   Feb 19, 1999

Scope

Specifies test requirements for power cables with extruded insulation and their accessories for fixed installations, for rated voltages above 30 kV (Um = 36 kV) up to and including 150 kV (Um = 170 kV).
The requirements apply to single-core cables and to three-core cables with separate cores and to their accessories for usual conditions of installation and operation, but not to special cables and their accessories, such as submarine cables, for which modifications to the standard tests may be necessary or special test conditions may need to be devised.
