Common test methods for insulating and sheathing materials of electric and optical cables - Part 42: Methods specific to polyethylene and polypropylene compounds - Tensile strength a
This part of GB/T 2951 specifies the test methods to be used for testing polymeric insulating and sheathing materials of electric and optical fibre cables for power distribution and telecommunications, including cables used on ships and in offshore applications. These test methods apply specifically to polyolefin insulation and sheath.
