This part of IEC 60966 is a sectional specification that relates to semi flexible coaxial cable assemblies operating in the transverse electromagnetic mode (TEM). It establishes uniform requirements for testing the electrical, mechanical and climatic properties of flexible cable assemblies composed of flexible coaxial cables and coaxial connectors. This document contains the same clauses than the IEC 60966-1 and complete or amend them when required. When a clause of IEC 60966-1 does not appear in this document it applies as it is in the IEC 60966-1. NOTE 1 For the purpose of this sectional specification, a cable assembly is always regarded as an integral unit. .All specifications apply to the finished assembly and not to individual and non-assembled parts thereof. NOTE 2 This sectional specification should be supplemented with detail specifications giving additional details as required by the particular application. This application will not necessarily require all tests.
