8.2.5.1 Test procedure
Replace the final paragraph of Subclause 8.2.5.1 by the following new text:

The tensile force applied shall be derived in the following way:
 Measure the diameter of the cable (mm), multiply this value by 20
 Measure the mass (kg) of the ‘m’ apparatus and multiply this value by 50
 Take the lower numerical value of these calculations and apply it (in Newtons) as tensile
force for the cable pull test.
This value may be reduced to 25 % of the required value in the case of fixed installations. The
minimum tensil
