Compression Test for Conduit Systems According to IEC 61386-1, IEC 61386-21 and IEC 61386-22 – Testing Equipment
1. Introduction The compression test is used to determine the resistance of conduit systems to transverse mechanical compression. The test evaluates the ability of a conduit to withstand a specified compressive load without excessive permanent deformation, flattening, or visible cracking. The general compression test requirements are specified in IEC 61386-1 – Conduit systems for cable…
