Description
Specifies the details of the glow-wire test to be applied to test specimens of solid electrical insulating materials or other solid materials for flammability testing to determine the glow-wire flammability index (GWFI).
GWFI is the highest temperature, determined during this standardized procedure, at which the
tested material
a) does not ignite or, if it does, extinguishes within 30 s after removal of the glow-wire and is not totally consumed, and
b) molten drips, if they occur, do not ignite the wrapping tissue.
This test method is a materials test carried out on a series of standard test specimens. The data obtained, along with data from the glow-wire ignition temperature (GWIT) test method for materials, IEC 60695-2-13, can then be used in a preselection process in accordance with IEC 60695-1-30 to judge the ability of materials to meet the requirements of IEC 60695-2-11.
Note: As an outcome of conducting a fire hazard assessment, an appropriate series of preselection flammability and ignition tests may allow a reduction of end product testing.
