Standard Test Methods for Heat-Shrinkable Tubing for Electrical Use

Importancia y uso:

4.1 These test methods include most of the important tests used to characterize heat-shrinkable tubing. They are intended primarily for, but not limited to, extruded heat-shrinkable tubing.

4.2 It is acceptable to use variations in these test methods or alternate contemporary methods of measurement to determine the values for the properties in this standard provided such methods ensure quality levels and measurement accuracy equal to or better than those prescribed herein. It is the responsibility of the organizations using alternate test methods to be able to demonstrate this condition. In cases of dispute, the methods specified herein shall be used.

Note 2: Provision for alternate methods is necessary because of (1) the desire to simplify procedures for specific applications without altering the result, and (2) the desire to eliminate redundant testing and use data generated during manufacturing process control, including that generated under Statistical Process Control (SPC) conditions, using equipment and methods other than those specified herein. An example would be the use of laser micrometers or optical comparators to measure dimensions.
