28 FOREWORD
29 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
30 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
31 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
32 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
33 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
34 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
35 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
36 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
37 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
38 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
39 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
40 interested IEC National Committees.
41 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
42 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
43 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
44 misinterpretation by any end user.
45 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
46 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
47 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
48 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
49 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
50 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
51 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
52 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
53 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
54 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
55 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
56 Publications.
57 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
58 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
59 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
60 rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
61 IEC 60794-1-135 has been prepared by subcommittee 86A: Fibres and cables, of IEC technical
62 committee 86: Fibre optics. It is an International Standard.
63 This first edition cancels and replaces Method E18B of the second edition of IEC 60794-1-21
64 published in 2020. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
65 This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
66 edition:
67 a) the mechanical test contained in IEC 60794-1-21: 2015+AMD1:2020 will now be individually
68 numbered in the IEC 60794-1-1xx series. Each test method is now considered to be an
69 individual document rather than part of a multi-test method compendium.
70 b) expand applicable scope, add OPPC and ADSS.
71 c) add the methods and standards of optical testing.
72 d) add the measurement and requirement of maximum allowable ovality.
73 e) add chapter “4.7 Details to be reported”.
74 The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:

81 at www.iec.ch/members_experts/refdocs. The main document types developed by IEC are
82 described in greater detail at www.iec.ch/publications.
83 A list of all parts in the IEC 60794 series, published under the general title Optical fibre cables,
84 can be found on the IEC website.
85 The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the
86 stability date indicated on the IEC website under webstore.iec.ch in the data related to the
87 specific document. At this date,
