Corrigendum 1 - Industrial communication networks - Installation of communication networks in industrial premises
Applies to insulating poles (insulating sticks), and tool attachments (fittings) and is divided into three chapters. Chapter I: Specifies the required characteristics for insulating poles with permanently attached fittings and the tests (electrical and mechanical) which should be satisfied by these tools. Chapter II: Specifies the required characteristics for parts which may be attached to and detached from the ends of poles described in Chapter I, and the tests which should be satisfied by these tools. Chapter III: Specifies the special clauses, applicable to insulating poles and universal tool attachments.[
