Overview
EN 6059-100:2015 is a European aerospace standard that specifies the general test methods and qualification requirements for protection sleeves used on electrical cables and cable bundles in aerospace applications. Published by CEN and part of the Aerospace series, this document defines the scope, test conditions, reporting requirements and a consolidated list of test methods used to verify mechanical, environmental and electrical performance of protective sleeving for aircraft and related systems.
Key Topics
- Scope and purpose
- Qualification of protection sleeves for aerospace cables and cable bundles.
- Test conditions
- Standard laboratory conditions: ambient temperature (20 ± 5) °C and relative humidity 45–75%.
- Reporting requirements
- Report approved drawings, type and size code, and specimen length when differing from test-method specifications.
- Consolidated test list (EN 6059 series - Part 100 lists the methods)
- General tests: visual examination, dimensions and mass, coverage.
- Environmental tests: sunlight exposure, high temperature exposure, resistance to fluids, flammability (or compliance with EN 3844-1), fluid absorption, mould growth, ageing, rapid change of temperature, and fire resistance when fitted on a cable bundle.
- Mechanical tests: expansion range, bending properties, scrape abrasion, tensile strength, dynamic cut-through, vibration.
- Electrical tests: voltage proof, resistance to electrical arcs, temperature rise due to rated current on the sleeve, and temperature rise within a loom due to self-heating.
- Fitting tests: open/close operation and marking durability.
Applications
- Used to qualify and verify protection sleeves for wiring harnesses in:
- Fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, satellites, and space vehicles.
- Practical roles who use EN 6059-100:2015:
- Aerospace manufacturers and OEMs specifying wire protection.
- Harness designers and installation engineers selecting sleeving materials.
- Component and material suppliers validating product performance.
- Test laboratories and certification bodies performing compliance testing.
- Maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) teams ensuring replacement parts meet original qualification.
- Benefits include improved fire safety, mechanical protection, environmental resistance and electrical integrity of cable assemblies.
Related Standards
- EN 6049-001 - Technical specification for protection sleeve in meta-aramid fibres (normative reference for terms and definitions).
- EN 3844-1 - Flammability of non-metallic materials (small burner test, vertical).
- Other parts of the EN 6059 series that detail specific test procedures for particular sleeve types.
