IEC 62329-2:2006 gives methods of test for heat-shrinkable moulded shapes in a range of configurations and materials suitable for insulation, environmental sealing, mechanical protection and strain relief for connector/cable terminations and multi-way transitions. The tests specified are designed to control the quality of the moulded shapes but it is recognized that they do not completely establish the suitability of moulded shapes for impregnation or encapsulation processes or other specialized applications.
