Live working - Insulating foam-filled tubes and solid rods - Part 1: Tubes and rods of a circular cross-section

IEC 60855-1:2009 is applicable to insulating foam-filled tubes and solid rods, of a circular cross-section, made of synthetic materials and intended to be used for the manufacture and construction of tools and equipment for carrying out live work on electrical systems operating at voltages above 1 kV. Tubes and rods of cross-section other than circular are not covered by this part of IEC 60855. This first edition of IEC 60855-1 cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC 60855 published in 1985; and constitutes a technical revision. Technical committee 78 is considering the preparation of IEC 60855-2, which would cover tubes and rods of cross-section other than circular.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
