This European Standard specifies a method for determiningThe ability of high explosives for civil uses to detonate while under applied hydrostatic pressure.This method is applicable to high explosives in cartridges and as bulk products intended for use under conditionswhere hydrostatic pressure may adversely affectTheir safety and reliability.The method is limited to explosives thatare able to detonate without confinement at normal atmospheric pressure.
