This part of IEC 60794 defines test procedures to measure the shrinkage of the sheath due to thermal exposure of cables.

A first test method, F11A, is included for cables where the fibre or buffered fibre and the sheath of the cable are intended to be fully terminated into a connector at one or both cable ends.

A second test method, F11B, is included in this document for sheath shrinkage testing for general purpose.

See IEC 60794‑1‑2 for a reference guide to test methods of all types and for general requirements.
