Amandma A1:2010 je dodatek k standardu SIST EN 60112:2004
Podaja zahteve za industrijske toge laminirane plošče iz silikonskih smol in različnih ojačitev za električne namene. Navedene so uporabe in razločevalne lastnosti. Materiali, skladni s to specifikacijo, ustrezajo vzpostavljenim ravnem delovanja.  Vendar mora uporabnik material za določeno uporabo izbrati na podlagi dejanskih zahtev za ustrezno delovanje pri takšni uporabi in ne le na podlagi same specifikacije. V tej reviziji serije specifikacij IEC 60893 so vključene nove vrste materialov, spremenjene so zahteve glede lastnosti nekaterih obstoječih vrst, dodana je nova metoda za preskušanje dielektričnosti in faktorja izgube, vsi nespecifikacijski podatki za vsako vrsto so bili prestavljeni v nov dokument, Del 4 - IEC 60893-4: Značilne vrednosti.

Overview

EN 60893-3-6:2004/A1:2009 sets the specifications for industrial rigid laminated sheets based on silicone resins, specifically intended for electrical insulating purposes. Developed by the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CLC), this standard is part of the broader EN 60893 series, which addresses various thermosetting resin-based insulating materials. The amendment A1:2009 brings revised impact strength requirements and further aligns the specifications with updated testing outcomes.

Key Topics

  • Silicone Resin Laminates: The standard defines the essential characteristics and test methods for rigid laminated sheets produced using silicone resins. These materials are widely valued for their superb electrical insulation properties and chemical resistance.
  • Mechanical and Electrical Properties: Requirements include considerations for flexural strength, impact strength (Charpy and Izod), electric strength, breakdown voltage, permittivity, dissipation factor, and insulation resistance.
  • Flammability and Water Absorption: Specifies test methods for evaluating flammability categories and sets limits on water absorption to ensure consistent performance in challenging environments.
  • Testing Consistency: Updated property tables and test criteria contribute to the consistency and reliability of rigid laminated sheets used in electrical insulation across industrial sectors.

Applications

Rigid laminated sheets based on silicone resins are integral in the manufacture and design of electrical equipment requiring high insulation performance under thermal and electrical stress. Applications include:

  • Electrical Panels and Switchgear: Used as structural insulating components due to their dimensional stability and excellent insulation at elevated temperatures.
  • Transformers and Power Distribution: Suitable for use as barriers and support members within transformers, ensuring safe operation and system longevity.
  • Electronics Manufacturing: Serve as base materials for circuit insulation, supporting stable operation of sensitive electronic devices.
  • Custom Industrial Solutions: Applied in bespoke insulating components where moisture resistance, fire performance, and electrical integrity are crucial.

These silicone-based laminates ensure that the high standards of electrical insulation, mechanical robustness, and environmental resistance are met, contributing to product safety and extended operational life in critical systems.

Related Standards

For comprehensive understanding and integration, consider these related documents and standards:

  • EN 60893-1: General requirements for industrial rigid laminated sheets based on thermosetting resins for electrical purposes.
  • IEC 60893-2: Methods of test for rigid laminated sheets.
  • IEC 60626: Specification for rigid insulating materials based on mica.
  • EN 60216 series: Electrical insulating materials - Thermal endurance properties.

Practical Value

By adhering to EN 60893-3-6:2004/A1:2009, manufacturers and users of silicone resin laminated sheets ensure compliance with recognized electrical insulation standards. This leads to greater trust from regulatory bodies and end-users, minimized equipment failure risks, and enhanced product reliability. Applying these specifications supports competitive market positioning and reduces the likelihood of costly recalls or safety issues in the field.
