DANSK DS/EN 60794-3-10 PDF

This part of IEC 60794 which is a family specification covers optical telecommunication cables to be used in ducts or direct buried applications. The cable may also be used for lashed aerial applications. Requirements of the sectional specification IEC 60794-3 for duct, buried and aerial cables are applicable to cables covered by this standard. Clause A.2 contains requirements that supersede the normal requirements in case the cables are intended to be used in installation governed by the MICE table of ISO/IEC 24702. Annex B gives information on the lashed aerial application. The parameters specified in this standard may be affected by measurement uncertainty arising either from measurement errors or calibration errors due to lack of suitable standards. Acceptance criteria shall be interpreted with respect to this consideration (see IEC 60794-3 Clause 8). The number of fibres tested shall be representative of the cable design and shall be agreed between the customer and the supplier.
