Scope: This European Standard details the performance requirements and the test methods for type tests for cable accessories for use on cables of rated voltage 0,6/1,0 (1,2) kV as defined in HD 603. Formerly, approvals for such products have been achieved on the basis of national standards and specifications and/or the demonstration of satisfactory service performance. The publication of this European standard does not invalidate existing approvals. However, products approved to such earlier standards or specifications shall not claim approval to this European Standard unless specifically tested to it. After they have been successfully made, these tests need not be repeated unless changes are made in the cable accessory materials, design or manufacturing process which might affect the performance characteristics. Joints, stop ends and outdoor terminations for extruded solid dielectric insulated cables and transition joints between extruded solid dielectric insulated and impregnated paper insulated cables are included. Joints, stop ends and outdoor terminations for impregnated paper insulated cables are not included. The service operating conditions of accessories shall be compatible with the service operating conditions of the cable. Accessories for special applications such as submarine cables, shipboard application or hazardous situations (explosive environments, fire resistant cables or seismic conditions) are not included.
