1 Scope
This International Standard is applicable to flexible insulating sleeving primarily
for insulating conductors and connectors of electrical apparatus. Some of the types
of sleeving are also suitable for binding, identification, environmental sealing and
mechanical protection. This standard is not applicable to coated papers.
Materials which conform to this specification meet established levels of performance.
However, the selection of a material by a user for a specific application should be
based on the actual requirements necessary for adequate performance in that application
and not based on this specification alone.
