Electric and optical fibre cables - Test methods for non-metallic materials - Part 411: Miscellaneous tests - Low-temperature brittleness of filling compounds

IEC 60811-411:2012 gives the procedure to evaluate lower temperature brittleness which typically applies to filling compounds used for communication and optical fibre cables. IEC 60811-411:2012 cancels and replaces Clause 6 of IEC 60811-5-1:1990, which is withdrawn. Full details of the replacements are shown in Annex A of IEC 60811-100:2012. There are no specific technical changes with respect to the previous edition, but see the Foreword to IEC 60811-100:2012. This publication is to be read in conjunction with <a href='http://webstore.iec.ch/webstore/webstore.nsf/ArtNum_PK/46164'>IEC 60811-100:2012</a>.
