scope:

The IEC 61196-1-2XX series specifies environmental test methods for coaxial communication cables. For information, IEC 61196-1-2XX consists of the following documents: IEC 61196-1-200 Environmental test methods - General requirements; IEC 61196-1-201 Cold bend performance ; IEC 61196-1-202 Resistance to environmental stress cracking; IEC 61196-1-203 Water penetration; IEC 61196-1-204 For future use; IEC 61196-1-205 Resistance to solvents and contaminating fluids; IEC 61196-1-206 Climatic sequence; IEC 61196-1-207 Damp heat steady state; IEC 61196-1-208 Pneumatic resistance; IEC 61196-1-209 Ageing; IEC 61196-1-210 Acid gas evolution; IEC 61196-1-211 Lightning; IEC 61196-1-212 UV stability; IEC 61196-1-213 Test for thermal ageing of cable; IEC 61196-1-214 For future use; IEC 61196-1-215 For future use. Further test details (e.g. temperature, duration) and/or test requirements may be given in the relevant sectional or detail specification.
