IEC 61196-1-318-ed.1.0

Annotation of standard text IEC 61196-1-318-ed.1.0 :

Applies to coaxial communication cables. It specifies several test methods for determining: - heat flow resistance of dielectric (the resistance of the dielectric to the mechanical distortion induced by radial stress imposed by the inner conductor at high temperatures); - resistance to heat exposure (formerly "heat shock resistance": the resistance of the dielectric or the sheath to high temperatures); - heat behaviour of semi-rigid cables (the ability of the cable construction of semi-rigid cables to withstand the expansion of the dielectric at high temperature); - dimensional stability (the displacement of the cable elements with respect to each other in order to demonstrate the suitability of a cable for use with connectors). Sapplique aux cables coaxiaux de communication. Elle specifie plusieurs methodes dessai pour determiner: - la resistance du dielectrique au flux thermique (resistance du dielectrique a la distorsion mecanique induite par la contrainte radiale imposee par le conducteur interieur a temperature elevee); - la resistance a la chaleur (precedemment "resistance au choc thermique" resistance du dielectrique ou de la gaine a temperature elevee); - le comportement des cables semi-rigides a la chaleur (aptitude de la structure des cables semi-rigides a resister a la dilatation du dielectrique a temperature elevee); - la stabilite dimensionnelle (deplacement des elements constituants du cable les uns par rapport aux autres afin de demontrer laptitude dun cable a etre utilise avec des connecteurs).
