Specifies the test methods for testing polymeric insulating and sheathing materials of electric cables for telecommunications and power distribution including cables used on ships. Gives the methods for measurement of elongation at break after pre conditioning, for wrapping test after thermal ageing in air, for wrapping test after pre conditioning, for long term stability test, for measurement of mass increase and for measurement of copper catalysed oxidative degradation.
