Foreword
This Harmonization Document was prepared by a task force under the direction of WG 11 of CENELEC
TC 20, Electric cables.
As agreed at the Bruges meeting (June 2007), the text of the draft was submitted to the formal vote and
was approved by CENELEC as HD 631.4 S1 on 2008-06-01.
The following dates were fixed:
- latest date by which the existence of the HD
has to be announced at national level (doa) 2008-12-01
- latest date by which the HD has to be implemented
at national level by publication of a harmonized
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2009-06-01
- latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the HD have to be withdrawn (dow) 2011-06-01
HD 631 will have 4 parts:
Part 1: Fingerprinting and type tests for resinous compounds
Part 2: Fingerprinting and type tests for heat shrinkable components for low voltage applications
Part 3: Fingerprinting for heat shrinkable components for medium voltage applications from
3,6/6 (7,2) kV up to 20,8/36 (42) kV
Part 4: Fingerprinting for cold shrinkable components for low and medium voltage applications up to
20,8/36 (42) kV
Fingerprinting of sealant components which are delivered as non heat shrinkable items, but that have an
important interfacing role, is under consideration.
NOTE  It has been assumed in the preparation of this document that the execution of its provisions will be entrusted to
appropriately qualified and experienced people, for whose use it has been produced.
WARNING  This Harmonization Document calls for the use of substances and/or procedures that may be
injurious to health if adequate precautions are not taken. It refers only to technical suitability and does not
absolve the user from legal obligations relating to health and safety at any stage.

1 Scope
This Harmonization Document specifies the test methods and requirements for fingerprinting (as
defined in 3.11) of cold shrinkable components intended to be used in cable accessories for low
and medium voltage, as defined in EN 50393, HD 629.1 and HD 629.2.
Fingerprinting of materials does not have a mandatory link to type testing of accessories. It shall
be regarded as a stand-alone test, but may be carried out in combination with the accesso
