BS 60832-1:2010 pdf download – Live working — Insulating sticks and attachable devices Part 1 : Insulating sticks The marking shall be durable, clearly visible and legible to a person with normal or correctedvision without additional magnification.The marking shall be placed in a position remote fromthe strip indicating the positions of internal metal parts. Other characteristics or information not needed at the work location,like the year ofpublication of the standard,shall be associated to the product item by other means,such ascoded information(bar codes, microchips, etc.), or shall be associated to its packaging. No marking shall adversely affect performance of insulating parts. Where a removablemarking (e.g. a stick-on label) is used, the electrical performance of the tool shall remainunaffected when the marking is removed. 4.8Instructions for use Each tool shall be supplied with the manufacturer’s written instructions for use and care, These instructions shall be prepared in accordance with the general provisions given inIEC 61477. These instructions shall include, as a minimum,recommendations for maximum mechanicalload (see 4.4.2), cleaning,storage and transportation,periodic testing,possible repair anddisposal of the tool. 5Tests 5.1General The present standard provides testing provisions to demonstrate compliance of the product tothe requirements of Clause 4.These testing provisions are primarily intended to be used astype tests for validation of the design input.Where relevant,alternative means (calculation,examination, tests,etc.), are specified within the test subclauses for the purpose of insulatingsticks having completed the production phase. To show compliance with this standard,the manufacturer shall prove that the type testsreferred to in Tables B.1 and B.2 have been successfully carried out on at least three tools ofeach type of assembly. However,when differences between various types of tools are limited in number,tests thatare unaffected by the differing characteristics of the tools can be carried out on a single typeof tool and the results can be used for the other tool types. Tensile force tests need not be repeated when tool types only differ in the length of theinsulating foam-filled tube or solid rod. The tests referred to in Tables B.1 and B.2 shall be performed in the specified numberedorder. The required values of mechanical forces specified in Clause 5 shall be reached using a rateof increase between 1 % and 10 % of the rated force per second. The forces shall be appliedwith an accuracy of 士5 %. NOTE For example, if the rated tensile force stated by the manufacturer for a given tool is FTN = 100 N,...
