Overview
EN 6059-401:2022 is a CEN-approved aerospace test method that defines how to determine the expansion range of protection sleeves used on electrical cables and cable bundles. Intended to be used together with EN 6059-100, this part provides a simple, repeatable mandrel-based test to verify that finished sleeves meet the dimensional performance required for reliable installation in aerospace electrical systems.
Key practical attributes of the standard:
- Focused scope: determines expansion limits (maximum and minimum diameters) for protection sleeves.
- Simple specimen and apparatus requirements: minimal preparation and standard mandrel sizes.
- Designed for use in qualification and incoming inspection to confirm fit and installation performance.
Key Topics
- Specimen preparation: A specimen with a minimum length of 300 mm is taken from a finished sleeve for testing.
- Apparatus: Mandrels with a minimum length of 350 mm are used. Mandrel diameters shall be equivalent to the maximum and minimum diameters specified for the sleeve in the product standard.
- Test method:
- Maximum diameter test: slide the specimen over the mandrel sized to the product standard's maximum diameter to confirm the sleeve can be fitted over the larger mandrel.
- Minimum diameter test: slide the specimen over the mandrel sized to the product standard's minimum diameter and stretch the sleeve by hand so that the sleeve is fixed on the mandrel.
- Requirements:
- Maximum diameter: the specimen can be slid over the mandrel.
- Minimum diameter: the specimen remains fixed on the mandrel when stretched by hand.
These steps provide a clear, reproducible way to confirm the usable expansion range without complex equipment.
Applications
EN 6059-401:2022 is directly applicable to aerospace manufacturers, suppliers and quality teams who need to:
- Validate protection sleeve design and manufacturing against declared expansion ranges.
- Perform incoming inspection of sleeves before cable harness assembly.
- Support installation qualification by ensuring sleeves will fit intended cable diameters and bundles.
Practical benefits include improved installation reliability, reduced rework in harness assembly, and demonstrable compliance with aerospace installation practices.
