Vulcanized fibre for electrical purposes - Part 1: Definitions and general requirements

IEC 60667-1:2020 gives the definitions and general requirements for vulcanized fibre sheets for electrical purposes. Materials made by combining with an adhesive several thicknesses of vulcanized fibre are not covered by this document. Materials that conform to this specification meet established levels of performance. However, the selection of a material by a user for a specific application is based on the actual requirements necessary for adequate performance in that application and not based on this specification alone. Safety warning: it is the responsibility of the user of the methods contained or referred to in this document to ensure that they are used in a safe manner. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1980. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
deletion of "corrugated, round rods, and round tubes" from the Scope;
types A, B and C replaced by general and fishpaper types and addition of a symbol for each type in the classification;
addition of white, blue, brown, and addition of a symbol for each colour;
deletion of the thickness of 15,0 mm, the length, the mass and the dimension of rolls from the general requirements;
addition of the manufacturer's name, trademark (if any), nominal thickness, manufacture date, and lot number in the conditions of supply.

Fibres vulcanisées à usages électriques - Partie 1: Définitions et exigences générales

IEC 60667-1:2020 donne les définitions et exigences générales pour les feuilles en fibre vulcanisée à usages électriques. Les matériaux composites constitués de plusieurs couches de fibre vulcanisée assemblées par un adhésif ne sont pas couverts par le présent document. Les matériaux conformes à la présente spécification satisfont aux niveaux de performance établis. Cependant, le choix du matériau par un utilisateur pour une application spécifique est fondé sur les exigences réellement nécessaires pour une performance appropriée et non sur cette seule spécification. Mise en garde: il est de la responsabilité de l’utilisateur des méthodes contenues ou mentionnées dans le présent document de veiller à ce qu’elles soient utilisées de façon sécurisée. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 1980. Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
suppression des termes "feuilles ondulées, les barres et les tubes de section ronde" dans le Domaine d'application;
modification des types A, B et C en type général et type papier de guipage et ajout du symbole pour chaque type dans la classification;
ajout du blanc, bleu, marron, et ajout du symbole pour chaque couleur dans les formes et couleurs;
suppression de l’épaisseur de 15,0 mm, de la longueur, de la masse et de la dimension des rouleaux dans les exigences générales;
ajout du nom du fabricant, de la marque commerciale le cas échéant, de l’épaisseur nominale, de la date de fabrication et du numéro de lot dans les conditions de livraison.

VULCANIZED FIBRE FOR ELECTRICAL PURPOSES –

Part 1: Definitions and general requirements

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60667-1 has been prepared by IEC Technical Committee 15: Solid
electrical Insulating materials.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1980. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) deletion of "corrugated, round rods, and round tubes" from the Scope;
b) types A, B and C replaced by general and fishpaper types and addition of a symbol for each
type in the classification;
c) addition of white, blue, brown, and addition of a symbol for each colour;
d) deletion of the thickness of 15,0 mm, the length, the mass and the dimension of rolls from
the general requirements;
e) addition of the manufacturer's name, trademark (if any), nominal thickness, manufacture
date, and lot number in the conditions of supply.
