INTRODUCTION The intent of this test is to determine the ability of a fiber optic cable to mechanically and optically withstand, or recover from (or both), the effects of a slowly-applied compressive force. The following parameters may be measured or observed: the number of...

5.1 This test method provides a means to measure a variety of fire-test-response characteristics associated with heat and smoke release and resulting from burning the materials insulating electrical or optical fiber cables, when made into cables and installed on a...
This is a fire-test-response standard. This test method provides a means to measure the heat released and smoke obscuration by burning the electrical insulating materials contained in electrical or optical fiber cables when the cable specimens, excluding accessories, are...
The test procedure is intended to provide a type test which characterizes the effect on fiber attenuation due to hydrogen generated by the cable components only. The data must be used cautiously since such data does not account for potential generation of hydrogen from other sources...
5.1 This test method is used to determine the heat release rate and a number of other fire-test-response characteristics as a result of exposing insulating materials contained in electrical or optical cables to a prescribed heating flux in the cone calorimeter apparatus. 5.2...
