1.1These test methods cover the testing of general-purpose (Grade A), low-temperature (Grade B), and high-temperature (Grade C)2 nonrigid vinyl chloride polymer tubing, or its copolymers with other materials, for use as electrical insulation. For the purpose of these test methods nonrigid tubing shall be tubing having an initial elongation in excess of 100 % at break.
1.2The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard, except for temperature, which shall be expressed in degrees Celsius. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
1.3The procedures appear in the following sections:
| | | ASTM Reference Standard |
| Brittleness Temperature | 43 – 45 | D746 |
| Corrosion Tests | 74 – 85 | D1000 |
| Dielectric Breakdown Voltage at High Humidity | 65 – 73 | E104 |
| Dielectric Breakdown Voltage | 58 – 64 | D149 |
| Dimensional Tests | 8 – 14 | D374 |
| Effect of Elevated Temperatures | 25 – 36 | D412 |
| Flammability Test | 15 – 21 | |
| Oil Resistance Test | 35 – 42 | D471 |
| Penetration Test | 46 – 51 | |
| Sampling | 6 | |
| Strain Relief Test | 68 – 73 | |
| Tension Test | 22 – 24 | D412 |
| Test Conditions | 7 | |
| Volume Resistivity | 52 – 57 | D257 |
1.4This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific hazard statements, see Section 5.
1.5For fire test caveats, see Section 15.
