Electrostatics - Part 4-1: Standard test methods for specific applications - Electrical resistance of floor coverings and installed floors

Specifies test methods for determining the electrical resistance of all types of floor coverings and installed floors with resistance to ground, point-to-point resistance and vertical resistance of between 104 W and 1013 W. Laboratory evaluations carried out under controlled environmental conditions can be used for classification or quality control purposes. Tests on installed floors under uncontrolled ambient conditions can be used to determine correct installation or as part of an ongoing system verification. The important changes refer only to the specification of test methods but do not contain classification or performance requirements; the test methods refer to resistance measurement, and the specified equipment comply more with those of the other parts of IEC 61340

Electrostatics - Part 4: Standard test methods for specific applications - Section 1: Electrostatic behaviour of floor coverings and installed floors

Specifies methods of test, for the characterization of electrostatic behaviour of floor coverings and installed floors. Because different kinds of floors are required, depending on the applications, it is not always possible to fully characterize the electrostatic behaviour by measurements of resistances, so a measurement of chargeability can be necessary.
