Selection of test samples
Samples for the tests shall be taken by the manufacturer before stranding, from not less than 10 % of the individual lengths of aluminium wire which will be included in any one consignment of stranded conductor.
One sample, sufficient to provide one test specimen for each of the appropriate tests, shall be taken from each of the selected lengths of wire.
Alternatively, when the purchaser states at the time of ordering that he desires tests to be made in the presence of his representative, samples of wire shall be taken from lengths of stranded conductor selected from approximately 10 % of the lengths included in any one consignment.
One sample, sufficient to provide one specimen for each of the appropriate tests, shall be taken from each of an agreed number of wires of the conductor in each of the selected lengths.
Place of testing
Unless otherwise agreed between the purchaser and the manufacturer at the time of ordering, all tests shall be made at the manufacturer’s works.
Certificate of compliance
When the purchaser does not call for tests on wires taken from the stranded conductor, the manufacturer shall, if requested, furnish him with a certificate giving the results of the tests made on samples taken.
