    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    CONTAINED IN VOL. 10.02, 2016 Includes procedures for testing hookup wire.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    1.1These test methods cover procedures for testing hookup wire.

    1.2For the purposes of these test methods, hookup wire insulation includes all components of the insulation system used on single insulated conductors or an assembly of single insulated conductors such as a cable bundle and harness or flat ribbon cable. The insulating materials include not only the primary insulation over the conductor, but also insulating jackets over shielded constructions.

    1.3The test procedures and their locations are as follows:
