Compression and mechanical connectors for power cables for rated voltages up to 36 kV (Um = 42 kV) -- Part 1: Test methods and requirements
Applies to compression and mechanical connectors for power cables for rated voltages up to 30 kV (Um = 36 kV), e.g. buried cables or cables installed in buildings, having - conductors complying with EN 60228 and EN 60228A with cross-sectional areas 10 mm2 and greater for copper and 16 mm2 and greater for aluminium, - a maximum continuous conductor temperature not exceeding 90 °C. This standard is not applicable to connectors for overhead conductors, which are designed for special mechanical requirements, or to separable connectors with a sliding contact or multi-core connectors (i.e. ring connectors). Although it is not possible to define precisely the service conditions for all applications, two broad classes of connectors have been identified. Class A These are connectors intended for electricity distribution or industrial networks in which they can be subjected to short-circuits of relatively high intensity and duration. As a consequence, Class A connectors are suitable for the majority of applications. Class B These are connectors for networks in which overloads or short-c
