Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee D09 on Electrical and Electronic Insulating Materials, these test methods were withdrawn in March 2020. This standard is being withdrawn without replacement because it is no longer being maintained..
Значение и использованиеThe thickness test is necessary to determine whether the material meets specified tolerances for thickness. In addition, thickness values are essential because of the importance of space factor in designing electrical equipment.
Область применения1.1 These test methods cover procedures for the testing of varnished cotton fabrics and varnished cotton fabric tapes (Note 1) to be used as electrical insulation and are directly applicable to both “straight-cut” and “bias-cut” materials, unless otherwise stated in the test method.
Note 1—Methods of testing varnished glass fabrics and tapes are given in Test Methods D902.
1.2 The procedures appear in the following order:

1.4 This 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 precautionary statements, see 44.4, 51.1, 58.1, and 65.1.
Note 2—This standard resembles IEC 60394–2 in title only. The content is significantly different.
