Full title and description

St ISO 6722-1-2011 cor1-2012 — Road vehicles — 60 V and 600 V single-core cables — Part 1: Dimensions, test methods and requirements for copper conductor cables (Technical Corrigendum 1). This corrigendum corrects and clarifies specific normative and editorial items in ISO 6722-1:2011.

Abstract

ISO 6722-1:2011 specifies dimensions, test methods and requirements for single-core cables used in road vehicle applications for nominal system voltages up to 60 V (and additional requirements for 600 V applications). The Corrigendum 1 (2012) supplies technical corrections to the 2011 edition. The main standard addresses copper-conductor single-core cables and the tests and limits needed to demonstrate conformance for automotive electrical systems.

General information

• Status: Withdrawn (corrigendum and parent standard currently listed as withdrawn in ISO records).
• Publication date: Corrigendum published September 2012; parent standard published October 2011.
• Publisher: International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
• ICS / categories: 43.040.10 (Electrical and electronic equipment for road vehicles).
• Edition / version: Edition 4 (ISO 6722-1:2011) with Technical Corrigendum 1 (2012).
• Number of pages: ISO 6722-1:2011 — 42 pages; Corrigendum (ISO 6722-1:2011/Cor 1:2012) — 5 pages.

Scope

The standard (and its corrigendum) applies to single-core copper-conductor cables intended for road vehicle electrical systems where nominal system voltage is ≤ 60 V d.c. (or 25 V a.c.), and it also specifies additional test methods and/or requirements for cables for systems up to 600 V. It covers dimensions, constructional features, mechanical and electrical test methods, and acceptance criteria for those cable types (including individual cores of multi-core cables).

Key topics and requirements

• Dimensional requirements and conductor cross-section classes for single-core copper cables (nominal sizes and tolerances).
• Electrical requirements including conductor resistance limits and voltage ratings.
• Mechanical tests: bending, mandrel/winding/cold bend tests, tensile and flex tests to demonstrate mechanical durability.
• Thermal and ageing tests covering temperature classes and insulation performance at specified temperature ranges.
• Insulation and material requirements, including identification of acceptable insulation systems for automotive use.
• Specific test procedures and acceptance criteria as corrected/clarified by Corrigendum 1 (2012).

Typical use and users

This corrigendum and the parent standard are used by automotive OEMs, wiring-harness manufacturers, cable suppliers, component test laboratories, and standards committees involved in specifying and verifying electrical cable performance for road vehicles. They inform procurement specifications, design validation tests, and conformity assessment activities for vehicle electrical wiring.

Related standards

ISO 6722 is a multi-part series covering single-core and related automotive cables (historical and subsequent parts/editions). National adoptions and identical versions exist (for example, regional adoptions and BS/EN national equivalents). The corrigendum applies specifically to ISO 6722-1:2011 and should be considered alongside other parts of ISO 6722 in vehicle wiring specifications.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: It is the Technical Corrigendum 1 (2012) to ISO 6722-1:2011 — a set of technical corrections and clarifications for the 2011 edition of the standard governing dimensions and test methods for single-core copper cables for road vehicles.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers corrections to the 2011 standard text; the parent standard addresses dimensions, electrical and mechanical test methods, insulation requirements and acceptance criteria for single-core copper-conductor cables used in vehicle electrical systems up to 60 V (with additional requirements for 600 V applications).

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Automotive manufacturers, cable and harness suppliers, test laboratories, procurement/specification engineers and standards bodies use the standard and its corrigendum to define and verify cable performance for vehicles.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: The 2011 edition and its 2012 corrigendum are currently listed as withdrawn in ISO lifecycle records (withdrawal noted in ISO project records with an effective withdrawal date shown in national/ISO project listings). Users should check the latest ISO/TC 22/SC 32 outputs or national standards bodies for the current, applicable cable standard or replacement.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes — ISO 6722 is a series of parts dealing with road-vehicle cables (different parts/editions cover various conductor types and additional requirements). The corrigendum applies specifically to Part 1 (copper conductor single-core cables).

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: Automotive cable, single-core, copper conductor, dimensions, test methods, mandrel test, cold bend, temperature class, ISO 6722-1, corrigendum.
