This European Standard details the method of test to determine the ability of the sheath markings of a finished cable used in analogue and digital communication systems to withstand abrasion.
It will be read in conjunction with EN 50289‑3‑1, which contains essential provisions for its application.
Depending on the kind of marking and as indicated in the relevant cable specification, one of the following two methods will be used:
  • - Method 1: is suitable for rigid marking types like embossing, indenting and sintering;
  • - Method 2: is applicable to marking types other than embossing, indenting and sintering.
