Overview
SIST EN 60317-46:2014/A1:2024 specifies requirements for aromatic polyimide enamelled round copper wire, class 240. This European standard is an amendment to EN 60317-46:2014 and aligns with IEC 60317-46:2013/AMD1:2024. It applies to copper winding wires coated with an aromatic polyimide insulation, suitable for electrical applications demanding high thermal endurance.
The standard forms part of a broader series detailing particular types of winding wires, and is maintained by CENELEC and national standardization organizations, including SIST in Slovenia. This amendment incorporates references to the latest related documents and aligns with updated testing procedures and terminology.
Key Topics
Scope
The standard covers aromatic polyimide enamelled round copper wires, specifically class 240, intended for use in electrical windings with high thermal performance requirements.Normative References
The document must be used in conjunction with IEC 60317-0-1:2013 and IEC 60317-0-1:2013/AMD1:2019, which set general requirements for enamelled round copper wire.Terms and Definitions
Definitions and terminology are harmonized with IEC 60317-0-1 and internationally recognized standards databases.Testing Methods
Test procedures for properties such as electrical resistance are standardized, referencing the foundational methods in IEC 60317-0-1 and its amendment. Where relevant, the amendment specifies when certain tests (such as resistance to transformer oil) are inappropriate.International Alignment
The document ensures harmonization with European and international electrotechnical standards for winding wires.
Applications
Aromatic polyimide enamelled round copper wire, class 240, as covered by SIST EN 60317-46:2014/A1:2024, is widely used in industries where high temperature endurance and electrical insulation are critical. Typical applications include:
Transformers
High-reliability transformers operating in harsh environments or elevated temperatures, where insulation stability is essential.Motors and Generators
Electrical motors and generators, particularly those used in industrial, automotive, or aerospace sectors, benefit from the enhanced thermal class 240 insulation.Coils and Electromagnets
Specialized coils and electromagnets, including those in high-performance electronic devices, where polyimide coatings provide robust protection and longevity.High-Temperature Electrical Equipment
Any electrical apparatus requiring winding wires that maintain performance at elevated thermal indices.
These applications underscore the wire’s advantages: strong thermal stability, chemical resistance, and electrical reliability.
