BS EN 6059-503 is a European Standard that specifies a method of assessing the behaviour and temperature increase of EMI protection sleeves or conduits when subject to permanent and/or fault currents in the shielding of the conduit or sleeve material and their effect on the cables within the cable sleeve.
It shall be used together with EN 3475-100.
BS EN 6059-503 also covers the preparation of specimens, method and requirements for conducting test to assess temperature rise due to rated current injected on the sleeve.
BS EN 6059-503 on protection sleeve is applicable to:
As a manufacturer of protection sleeves, BS EN 6059-503 guides you in assessing the behaviour and temperature increase of EMI protection sleeves and thereby checking the effectiveness.
BS EN 6059-503 provides best practice guidelines on preparing specimens, testing methods and requirements for assessing the behaviour and temperature increase of EMI protection sleeves.
By adopting BS EN 6059-503, you can demonstrate the reliability of your products and build trust in their use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
