Describes methods of determining the mechanical and electrical resistance, the adhesive properties, and thermal endurance of pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes. Calls up AS 3532 for the determination of electrolytic corrosion of metal parts contacted by insulating materials.

This part of the recommendation contains the test methods to be used in testing pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes for electrical purposes to meet the requirements prescribed in the sheets of Part 3.
