TYPE TEST REPORT Mechanical test – Tensile test

ACCC AMSTERDAM IEC 61284 Clause 11.5.1

 

I Product reference Project:  Cable ACCC AMSTERDAM  

Cable:    Cable ACCC AMSTERDAM Ø 23.55mm, RTS 122.8 

Designation and reference of the product:  

‐ Compression dead‐end:    CCTC ACCC AMSTERDAM 

‐ Compression mid‐span joint:  JXFK ACCC AMSTERDAM 

Drawing reference: 

‐ Compression dead‐end:    CCTC ACCC AMSTERDAM‐a  

‐ Compression mid‐span joint:  JXFK ACCC AMSTERDAM‐a  

 

II Test purpose Type  test  are  intended  to  prove  conformance  of  fittings  to  applicable  standards  and/or 

specific requirements‐technical specifications. 

‐ Mechanical tensile test to validate mechanical properties of fittings. 

 

III Standard reference ‐ IEC 61284 (1997‐09): Standard ‐ Overhead Line ‐ Requirements and tests for fittings ‐ WI‐750‐031: Specification for Qualifying ACCC Accessory Manufacturers  

IV Conclusion The test results are satisfactory and meet the requirements of the applicable standard and 

technical specification for all the fittings mentioned previously.  

Tensile test results:   the failure occurs at 122.1kN, 99.4% of the RTS (above 95% of the RTS)

V Test procedures

1. Characteristic of the sample Characteristic: ACCC AMSTERDAM, Ø23.55, RTS 122.8kN, 15m. 

Ambient temperature: 22°C 

 

2. Measuring device Tensile test machine 1000kN, checked 05/06/2012, with report n°1204166‐6 

 

3. Mechanical tensile test - IEC 61284 Clause 11.5.1  

Guarantee:  Breakage above 95% of the RTS    

Comment:  The  sample  is  installed  in  the  tensile  test machine,  the  load  shall be  raised 

gradually until 20% of  the RTS of  the conductor, and a mark  is made on  the conductor  to 

detect the movement. Then the load is raised gradually until 60% of the RTS. And finally the 

load shall be increases until failure occurs. 

 

VI Results  

Installation of the sample in the tensile test machine.

The load is raised until 20% of the RTS, and a mark is made on the conductor to detect the movement.

The load is raised until 60% of the RTS, no slippage occurs.

 

 

The  load  is raised until the failure which occurs at 122.1kN (99.4% of the RTS). Breaking of the  composite  core,  between  the  dead  end  and  the  Mid‐span,  in  the  middle  of  the conductor.
