Overview

EN 60702-2:2002 (CENELEC / IEC 60702-2:2002) specifies requirements for terminations for mineral insulated (MI) cables with a rated voltage not exceeding 750 V. It is the Part 2 companion to EN 60702-1 (Part 1: Cables) and provides the standardized expectations for the construction, compatibility and normative references that apply to MI cable terminations. This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 1 March 2002 and supersedes HD 586.2 S1:1994.

Key topics and requirements

  • Scope: Defines requirements specifically for terminations to be used with mineral insulated cables that comply with EN 60702-1.
  • Normative references: Incorporates and maps international standards relevant to terminations, including IEC publications cited in Annex ZA (normative). Notable referenced documents include IEC 60702-1, IEC 60079-0 (explosive atmospheres), IEC 60364-5-54 (selection and erection), and IEC 60423 (conduit dimensions).
  • Compliance and implementation: The standard was adopted for national implementation by CENELEC members and contains transitional dates for national adoption and withdrawal of conflicting standards.
  • Annexes: Annex ZA is normative and links EN requirements to corresponding international publications, ensuring harmonized application across CENELEC member countries.

(Note: EN 60702-2:2002 covers the normative and procedural requirements for terminations; specific construction or test parameters are defined in the full standard text and in EN 60702-1.)

Applications

EN 60702-2 is intended for use where MI cables require standardized, certified terminations in low-voltage applications (≤750 V). Typical practical uses include:

  • Specifying termination requirements in procurement and technical specifications
  • Guiding manufacturers of MI cable terminations on harmonized design and documentation expectations
  • Supporting test laboratories and certification bodies in evaluating conformity to European and IEC requirements
  • Assisting electrical designers, installers and maintenance engineers who select MI cable systems and ensure compatible terminations in buildings and industrial installations

Who should use this standard

  • Cable and termination manufacturers
  • Electrical designers and specifiers
  • Testing and conformity assessment organizations
  • Standards committees and regulatory authorities
  • Procurement and quality assurance teams specifying MI cable systems
