ASTM D470 Standard Test Methods for Crosslinked Insulations and Jackets for Wire and Cable

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of ASTM D470 standard. These test methods cover procedures for testing cross-linked insulations and sheaths for wire and cable.

To determine the test to be performed on a particular insulation or jacket, refer to the product specifications for that type. These test methods do not apply to the class of products known as flexible cords.

In many cases, insulation or sheath cannot be tested unless it is built around a conductor or cable. Therefore, in these test methods, tests are performed on insulated or sheathed wire or cable only to determine the relevant property of the insulation or sheath, not to test the conductor or completed cable.

This standard does not purport to address all, if any, security issues associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices prior to use and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions.
