1、Designation:D 669 03An American National StandardStandard Test Method forDissipation Factor and Permittivity Parallel with Laminationsof Laminated Sheet and Plate Materials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 669;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year o
2、foriginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon(e)indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the dissi-pation fa
3、ctor and permittivity of stiff laminated sheet and plateinsulating materials in a direction parallel with the laminations.This test method primarily includes information covering thepreparation of the specimen,and details concerning the proce-dure required to make measurements parallel with the lami
4、na-tions for this particular type of material.The apparatus andgeneral test procedure shall be in accordance with Test Meth-ods D 150.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated
5、with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.For a specificwarning statement see 9.2.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D 150 Test Methods for AC
6、Loss Characteristics and Per-mittivity(Dielectric Constant)of Solid Electrical Insula-tion3.Significance and Use3.1 It has long been recognized that dissipation factor andpermittivity of laminated insulation as measured in a directionperpendicular to the laminations are not of the same magnitudeas t
7、hose measured parallel to the laminations.This test methodprovides a means of obtaining data parallel to the laminationswhere design parameters require this information.4.Selection of Test Specimens4.1 Select material for test that will not show obviousdefects in the area where the electrodes are to
8、 be applied unlessit is the purpose of this test to show the effects of such defectson the properties measured.5.Specimen Holder5.1 Construct a frame from38-in.(9.5-mm)square metalbars as shown in Fig.1.Mill slots 0.260 in.(6.60 mm)wideand116in.(1.6 mm)deep in two inner and opposite parallelsides of
9、 the frame to hold the test material in a parallel position.Insert threaded studs,equipped with nuts,in the open ends ofthe slotted bars to receive the(unmilled)clamping bars that areto be drawn tightly on the specimen pile-up.6.Electrodes6.1 Prepare two thin aluminum foil electrodes,2 to 4 in.(50to
10、 100 mm)in diameter,depending on the frequency and thetype of circuit used in the measurement(see the Appendix ofTest Methods D 150).Preferably,use an electrode diameter sothat the capacitance measured is greater than 50 pF.Use ofsmaller diameter electrodes increases the effects of straycapacitances
11、 and decreases the precision of the measurements.7.Preparation of Test Specimens7.1 Cut strips of material 0.250+0.005 0.001 in.(6.35+0.013 0.003 mm)wide by 5.256 0.015 in.(133.35 60.38 mm)long in sufficient quantity to provide a pile-up ofabout 5.25 in.(134 mm)when stacked with the cut edgesexposed
12、.7.2 Prepare two sets of test specimen pile-ups,one with thelong dimension in the machine direction of the material and theother in the cross-machine direction.Where the machinedirection of the paper-base or the warp direction of thefabric-base sheets is known,it shall constitute the length-wisedire
13、ction.Otherwise,consider the longer direction of the sheetmaterial the lengthwise direction.If the material sheet has thesame length and width,then arbitrarily designate one dimen-sion as the length.7.3 Mount the strips in the specimen holder with the uncutsurfaces adjacent to each other and the cut
