StandardDetails

This standard applies to rigid and flexible cables with insulation and sheath, if any, based on vulcanized rubber, of rated voltages Uo/U up to and including 450/750 V used in power installations of nominal voltage not exceeding 450/750 V a.c. NOTE: For some types of flexible cables, the term cord is used. The particular types of cables are specified in GSO IEC 60245-3: 1994 "Rubber Insulated Cables of Rated Voltages up to and Including 450/750 V – Part 3: Heat Resistant Silicone Insulated Cables", GSO IEC 60245-4: 1994 "Rubber Insulated Cables of Rated Voltages up to and Including 450/750 V – Part 4: Cords and Flexible Cables", GSO IEC 60245-5: 1994 "Rubber Insulated Cables of Rated Voltages up to and Including 450/750 V – Part 5: Lift Cables" and GSO IEC 60245-6: 1994 "Rubber Insulated Cables of Rated Voltages up to and Including 450/750 V – Part 6: Arc Welding Electrode Cables". The code designations of these types of cables are given in Appendix A. The test methods specified in GSO IEC 60245-1: 1994 “Rubber Insulated Cables of Rated Voltages up to and Including 450/750 V – Part 1: General Requirements” GSO IEC 60245-3: 1994 "Rubber Insulated Cables of Rated Voltages up to and Including 450/750 V – Part 3: Heat Resistant Silicone Insulated Cables", GSO IEC 60245-4: 1994 "Rubber Insulated Cables of Rated Voltages up to and Including 450/750 V – Part 4: Cords and Flexible Cables", GSO IEC 60245-5: 1994 "Rubber Insulated Cables of Rated Voltages up to and Including 450/750 V – Part 5: Lift Cables" and GSO IEC 60245-6: 1994 "Rubber Insulated Cables of Rated Voltages up to and Including 450/750 V – Part 6: Arc Welding Electrode Cables" and the standard to be approved by the GSMO on "Common Test Methods for Insulating and Sheathing Materials of Electric Cables"*.
