This document specifies requirements for metallic, non-metallic and composite cable ties and their associated fixing devices used for the management and support of wiring systems in electrical installations. Cable ties and associated fixing devices may also be suitable for other applications and where so used, regard should be taken of any additional requirements. This document does not contain requirements that evaluate any electrical insulation properties of the cable tie or mechanical protection of the cables provided by the cable tie. This document contains requirements for the mechanical interface of an adhesive fixing device to a solid surface. It does not consider the mechanical behaviour of the solid surface in itself. This document does not consider the mechanical interface, for example the mounting screw, of a fixing device other than adhesive to a solid surface.
