This document has been declared "Stabilized" and will no longer be subjected to periodic reviews for currency. Users are responsible for verifying references and continued suitability or technical requirements. New technology may exist. This standard specifies basic and high performance test methods and requirements for round, screened and unscreened, multi-core sheated cables intended for use in road vehicle applications. The unscreened, single-core cables shall be in accordance with ISO 6722, SAE J 1127, SAE J 1128, SAE J 1654, SAE J 1678, or SAE J 2183. Other cores may be used, but in these cases, the construction and tests required to ensure functionality of these cores shall be agreed between the customer and supplier. See ISO 6722 for temperature classes. ISO 6722 will be needed to perform some of the tests in this standard.
