This European Standard specifies the test methods and requirements of tests for fingerprinting (as defined in 3.9) of solvent-free polymerizable, reacting resinous compound intended to be used for electrical insulation and mechanical protection in cable accessories covered by EN 50393, HD 629.1 and HD 629.2, for low and medium voltage up to 20,8/36 (42) kV. Fingerprinting testing of materials does not have a mandatory link to type testing of accessories. It is regarded as stand-alone tests, but it may be carried out in combination with the accessory type tests. NOTE Information on health and safety is given in Annex A.
