This sheet of IEC 695-2-1 specifies the details of the glow-wire test when applied to specimens of solid electrical insulating materials or other solid combustible materials for flammability testing.The test results make it possible to provide a relative comparison of various materials according to their ability to extinguish flames on removal of the heated glow-wire and their ability not to produce flaming or glowing particles capable of spreading fire to a layer of wrapping tissue placed below.The test method is not valid for determining the flammabilityof complete items of equipment, since the dimensions of the insulating systems or combustible parts, the design and heat transfer to adjacent metallic or non-metallic parts, etc., greatly influence the flammability of the materials used therein. In addition to this, it is not valid for determining fire behaviour and fire hazard of equipment.
