scope:
Specifies the details of the glow-wire test when applied to specimens of solid electrical insulating materials or other solid combustible materials for ignitability testing. Applies to materials only, is not valid for complete items of equipment and, hence, does not appply to determining fire behaviour and fire hazard of equipment. The test results make it possible to provide a relative comparison of various materials according to the temperature at which the test specimen ignites during the application of the electrically heated glow-wire as ignition source.
