FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Part 2/Set 1 ) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on 15 May
1989, after the draft finalized by the Wires and Cables for Electronic
Equipment
Sectional
Committee had been approved by the Electronics and Telecommunication
Division Council.
Part 1 covers radio frequency coaxial cables
This standard is being brought out in various parts.
with solid polyethylene insulation, Part 2 covers radio frequency coaxial cables with polyethylene
( semi-solid ) insulation, and Part 3 covers radio frequency coaxial cables with solid extruded/tape
wrapped PTFE insulation.
Each of these parts is again issued in several sections.
Each section
covers a particular type of these cables.
This standard (Part P/Set 1 ) covers polyethylene ( semi-solid ) radio frequency coaxial cables of
characteristic
impedance 75 ohms. The cable covered under this standard is generally used for
power line carrier communication
applications.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with,
the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded
off in accordance
with IS 2 : 1960 Rules for rounding
off numerical
values (rszked).
The
number of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the
specified value in this standard.
