BS EN IEC 62677-1:2018

What is BS EN IEC 62677-1- Heat-shrinkable moulded shapes about? 

BS EN IEC 62677 is an International Standard that discusses heat shrinkable low and medium voltage moulded shapes. 

BS EN IEC 62677-1 is the first part in the BS EN IEC 62677 series that is applicable to heat shrinkable low and medium voltage moulded shapes in a range of configurations and materials suitable for insulation, environmental sealing, mechanical protection, electrical conductance, anti-tracking and strain relief for power cable terminations, joints and stop ends. 

Who is BS EN IEC 62677-1- Heat-shrinkable moulded shapes for? 

BS EN IEC 62677-1 on moulded shapes is relevant to: 

• Manufacturers of heat shrinkable moulded shapes 
• Manufacturers of low and medium-voltage applications 
• Manufacturers of insulating materials 
• Product design engineers 
• Electrical industry 

Why should you use BS EN IEC 62677-1- Heat-shrinkable moulded shapes? 

Heat-shrinkable moulded shapes impart high electric strength, mechanical endurance and protection against external influences, thus keeping your components and equipment well insulated. For this reason, selecting the right moulding materials is crucial.  

BS EN IEC 62677-1 provides you with best industry guidance on material specimens and classification by style configuration. Standard references for dimensions, ordering description and finish is also provided.  

If you are a manufacturer, materials that conform to BS EN IEC 62677-1 meet established levels of performance. As a result, you can demonstrate the reliability of your products to seal and protect wire connection effectively by complying with BS EN IEC 62677-1.  

Overall, BS EN IEC 62677-1 is your one-stop guide to making the right selection of insulating materials, that play a positive role in the performance of low and medium voltage applications.
