CAN ULC-IEC 60855-1-2016 PDF Download

CAN ULC-IEC 60855-1-2016 is a standard that specifically addresses insulating foam-filled tubes and solid rods with a circular cross-section. These tubes and rods are made of synthetic materials and are reinforced with fibreglass. The standard is designed for use in the manufacturing and construction of tools, devices, and equipment used for live working on electrical systems operating at voltages above 1 kV.

The purpose of this standard is to establish requirements and test methods for insulating foam-filled tubes and solid rods. It ensures that these products meet the necessary safety standards for use in live working on electrical systems. This standard provides guidelines for the mechanical properties, electrical performance, and dimensional requirements of these tubes and rods.
