Overview
EN 60811-302:2012 (adoption of IEC 60811-302:2012) specifies the electrical test method for measuring the d.c. resistivity of filling compounds used in communication and optical fibre cables. It defines how to determine resistivity at two temperatures - 23 °C and 100 °C - and is intended to be read in conjunction with EN/IEC 60811-100 (general provisions for non‑metallic cable material tests). This part replaces Clause 10 of the withdrawn IEC 60811-5-1:1990 and references the test procedure in IEC 60247.
Key Topics
- Scope: Measurement of d.c. resistivity of filling compounds typically used in cable bedding and filling for communication and optical fibre applications.
- Referenced methods: Test procedure, calculation and measurement details are carried out in accordance with IEC 60247.
- Apparatus: Use of a three‑terminal cell as described by IEC 60247.
- Sample preparation: Filling compound must be heated to its clarify point and poured into a preheated cell; care must be taken to avoid air bubbles.
- Ageing: Any required ageing procedures follow IEC 60247.
- Test conditions:
- Temperatures: (23 ± 2) °C and (100 ± 3) °C
- D.C. test voltage: 100 V
- Results and reporting: Calculation and expression of resistivity follow IEC 60247; the test report is prepared in accordance with IEC 60811-100.
Applications
This standard is practical for:
- Cable manufacturers evaluating filling compounds for new cable designs.
- Material suppliers validating electrical insulation properties of oils, gels and other filling substances.
- Independent test laboratories conducting type-approval, routine QC or comparative testing.
- R&D and product development teams selecting filling compounds to ensure signal integrity and long-term performance.
- Compliance and certification engineers documenting conformity with cable material requirements.
Use cases include material selection, quality control, batch acceptance testing, failure analysis and supporting regulatory/compliance dossiers for optical fibre and communication cable products.
