Overview
EN 60454-3-1:1998/A1:2001 is a CLC/CENELEC adoption of IEC 60454-3-1:1998 with Amendment 1 (2001). It defines material specifications for PVC film tapes with pressure-sensitive adhesive used for electrical purposes. The amendment updates flammability classification and clarifies requirements for individual materials. This standard is intended for manufacturers, test laboratories, specifiers and purchasers of electrical insulating tapes across Europe.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Scope: Material specifications for PVC film pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) tapes used in electrical applications (Part 3-1).
- Standards alignment: European adoption of the international standard IEC 60454-3-1:1998 with Amendment 1 (2001).
- Flammability criteria (amendment):
- The amendment replaces the “Resistance to flame propagation” row with a Flammability classification:
- Non-ignitable or self-extinguishing (resistance to flame propagation, item 19)
- Flame retardant (flame test, item 20) - see note
- The note references that criteria for “flame retardant” are described in 20.1 of IEC 60454-2.
- The amendment replaces the “Resistance to flame propagation” row with a Flammability classification:
- Governance and dates: Amendment A1 was approved by CENELEC on 2001-07-01. National implementation and withdrawal timelines were specified (implementation by 2002-04-01; conflicting standards withdrawn by 2004-07-01).
- Technical committee: Prepared by IEC TC 15 / SC 15C (Insulating materials – Specifications).
Applications
This standard is practical for:
- Manufacturers of PVC electrical tapes seeking product design and compliance guidance.
- Test laboratories performing conformity testing and flammability assessment against EN/IEC criteria.
- Procurement professionals and specifiers in utilities, OEMs and electrical contractors selecting tapes for insulation, bundling, color-coding and surface protection.
- Regulatory bodies and certification agencies that evaluate safety and marking of electrical insulating materials.
Related Standards
- IEC 60454-3-1:1998/A1:2001 (base international document)
- EN 60454-3-1:1998 (original European adoption)
- IEC/EN 60454-2 (referenced for detailed flame retardant criteria, clause 20.1)
This standard is essential when assessing PVC film electrical tape, pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes, and electrical insulation tape standards to ensure consistent material performance and flammability classification in European markets.
