IEEE 1717-2012 - IEEE Standard for Testing Circuit Integrity Cables Using a Hydrocarbon Pool Fire Test Protocol

Standard

Active

Standard Details

Standardization of circuit integrity cable testing is beneficial to cable manufacturers, distributors, and users. Uniform procedures, consistent, repeatable results, and measurable test acceptance criteria are required to allow comparisons among competing products and to allow selection of the correct product for the application.
