The flame-test performance and other characteristics of a cord or cable containing a wire covering(s) can be affected by changes in the wire covering(s), so the percent coverage and
other construction details of each wire braid and wire serving in a cord or cable are specified in the Procedure and then are checked by periodic UL Follow-Up Service inspections.
Various coverage formulas are in the UL 62, UL 1309, and SU 2588 requirements. A
measurement and calculation method is not described in any of the Ut requirements that
include wire coverings.
Ut now proposes that formulas and a method for determining wire braid and serving coverage
from measurements on the finished product be placed in the UL 1581 Standard as a new
Section 228. Section 228 would be available for reference in place of having a method of
determining coverage described in the individual product requirements.
