Summarise this standard

This part of International Standard IEC 60794 applies to optical fibre cables for use with telecommunication

equipment and devices employing similar techniques, and to cables having a combination of both optical fibres

and electrical conductors.



The prime objective of this standard is to provide the end user with an overview about the content of different

parts of the IEC 60794-1-2X series. Table 1 shows the different parts.

Test methods IEC reference

General and guidance IEC 60794-1-2

Methods E - Mechanical IEC 60794-1-21

Methods F - Environmental IEC 60794-1-22

Methods G - Cable Elements IEC 60794-1-23

Methods H - Electrical IEC 60794-1-24



These documents define test procedures to be used in establishing uniform requirements for the

geometrical, transmission, material, mechanical, ageing (environmental exposure) and climatic

properties of optical fibre cables, and electrical requirements where appropriate.



Throughout the documents the wording optical cable may also include optical fibre units, microduct

fibre units, etc.



Several numbers in the test method numbering sequence are missing. The reasons for these omissions

are historical. To avoid confusion the existing numbering sequence has been retained.



The secondary objective of this standard is to provide the end user with useful guidance and definitions

when testing optical fibre cables.
