Overview
EN 60702-2:2002/A1:2015 is the CENELEC adoption of IEC 60702-2:2002/A1:2015 and specifies requirements for terminations of mineral insulated (MI) cables with a rated voltage not exceeding 750 V. Amendment A1 updates normative references, clarifies test wording, and adds detail about glands used for earth continuity. The standard is part of the EN/IEC family covering mineral insulated cables and supports compliance with Low Voltage Directive (LVD) safety objectives.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope: Termination design, construction and safety-related aspects for MI cable terminations up to 750 V (Part 2: Terminations).
- Normative references: The amendment replaces and updates clause 2 references; key referenced documents include:
- IEC 60079-0 (Explosive atmospheres - equipment general requirements)
- IEC 60364-5-54 (Earthing arrangements and protective conductors)
- IEC 60423 (Conduit outside diameters and threads)
- IEC 60702-1 (MI cables - Part 1: Cables)
- Tests and wording change: Clause 6.2.3 (Insulation integrity test) is amended to replace the phrase “environmental tests” with the broader term “tests,” affecting interpretation and reporting of insulation verification.
- Glands and earthing: Clause 6.4.3 addresses glands intended to provide earth continuity without integral protective conductors; the amendment adds clarifying text for these glands.
- Bibliography and guidance: The amendment adds IEC 60702-3 (Guide to use) as bibliographic guidance (noting IEC 60702-3 was under consideration at the time).
Applications and who uses this standard
- Manufacturers of mineral insulated cable terminations and accessories (glands, connectors).
- Design engineers and specifiers creating low-voltage wiring systems where MI cables are selected for fire resistance, high temperature or mechanical protection.
- Installers and contractors responsible for assembling and terminating MI cables in buildings, industrial plants, and potentially hazardous locations.
- Testing laboratories and certification bodies that assess compliance with EN/IEC requirements and the LVD.
- Safety and maintenance personnel ensuring earthing continuity and insulation integrity on MI cable terminations.
