Scope
1.1 This specification covers the tests and values for electrical insulating varnishes, as supplied, which are suitable for the impregnation and treatment of electrical coils and windings applied by dip process. 1.2 Varnishes, flexible or rigid, included in this specification are: Grade DA—Air-dry Grade DO—Organic solvent containing, baking, Grade DM—Reactive diluent containing, Grade DS—Silicone, Grade DW—Water containing, and Grade DT—Thixotropic. 1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard. NOTE 1—This specification resembles IEC 60455 in title only. The content is significantly different. 1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
