This standard BS EN IEC 60794-1-305:2023 Optical fibre cables is classified in these ICS categories:
33.180.10 Fibres and cables
IEC 60794-1-305:2023 describes test procedures to be used in establishing uniform requirements for optical fibre ribbons as optical fibre cable elements for the mechanical property-tear (separability). This document applies to optical fibre cables for use with telecommunication equipment and devices employing similar techniques, and to cables having a combination of both optical fibres and electrical conductors. NOTE?Throughout the document, the wording "optical cable" can also include optical fibre units, microduct fibre units, etc.This test is applicable for edge-bonded ribbons and encapsulated ribbons specified in IEC 60794-1-31, and not intended to be used for partially-bonded ribbons.
