3、.1 This specification covers medium-volt-age,ozone-resistant rubber insulating tape designed for splicing electrical wires and ca-bles operating up to 35 O00 V phase-to-phase under both wet and dry locations with conduc-tor temperatures up to 90C(194F)for con-tinuous operation,to 110C(230F)for emer-
4、gency overload conditions,and to 250C(482F)for short-circuit conditions,and for other insulating purpases.This tape is suitable for wet or dry outdoor use,but must be overwrapped to protect from ultraviolet ra-diation.This tape may be applied under an ambient temperature range from-10C(+14F)to+4OC(1
5、04F).2.Applicable Documents 2.1 ASTM Standards:D 149 Tests for Dielectric Breakdown Volt-age and Dielectric Strength of Electrical Insulating Materials at Commercial Power Frequencies2 D 150 Test for A-C Loss Characteristics and Permittivity(Dielectric Constant)of Solid Electrical Insulating Materia
