Unless otherwise specified, the samples for each test shall be in a clean and new condition,with all parts in place and mounted as in normal use. After checking dimensions in accordance with Clause 8, and unless otherwise specified in the relevant test, the conduit fittings shall be assembled with adequate lengths of conduit of the type for which they are intended. Due regard shall be taken of the manufacturer’s instructions, especially where force is required in the assembly of the joint.
NOTE: Where similarities are claimed, the selection of representative fittings for test purposes can be agreed between the manufacturer, or responsible vendor, and the testing station.
Where the conduit entries are part of the detachable or loose type conduit fitting, the detachable conduit fitting shall be capable of being assembled again, after the test,according to the manufacturer’s instructions without loss of the declared properties according to Clause 6.
Unless otherwise specified, three samples shall be subjected to the tests,and the requirements are satisfied if the test criteria are met.
If only one of the samples does not satisfy test criteria, due to an assembly or a manufacturing defect, that test and any preceding one which may have influenced the result of the test shall be repeated, and also the tests which follow shall be carried out in the.required sequence on another full set of samples, all of which shall comply with the requirements.
NOTE: If the additional set of samples is not submitted at the same time, a failure of one sample will entail a rejection. The applicant, when submitting the first set of samples, may also submit an additional set of samples which may be used, should one sample fail. The testing station will then, without further request, test the additional set of samples and will reject them only if a further failure occurs.AS NZS 61386.1 pdf free download.
