of prevention of pollution on insulators.
0.5 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular of this
standard is complied with, the final value observed or ca!lcuJiatcr:i, Clmr~::ss·
result of a test. shall be rounded. off in accordance : 2-
The number of significant retained in the rounded off value
should be the same as that of the value in this standard.

6.3 Method fGr the DetermiDatiGn Gf InsGlubility - About 3 g of the


compound, accurately weighed, shall be smeared around the inside of a
weighed glass beaker of 250 ml capacity. Approximately 100 ml of the solu-
tic~ are enough to immerse the compound and shall be poured into the con-
tainer. The container shall be tightly capped with metal foil and left to stand
for a period of 7 days at a temperature between 22"C and 28"C. At intervals
of aprroximately 24 hours, the solution shall be stirred by moderate manuaJ
rotation of the container. At the end of the 7-day period, the solution
shall be poured off, and the container and compound rinsed carefully with
successive washes of distilled water until all solvent has been removed.
The container and compound shall be dried for 20 hours in an oven at
70"C followed by desiccation for 4 hours over calcium chloride. A blank
shall be run to determine the loss due to evaporation which occurs during
the treatment. A final weight less than the original weight of the container
-and compound shall indicate removal of soluble constituents.
6.4 Method fGr the DetenninatiGn Gf Solidifying PGmt - Maintain
the material at a temperature of -60°0 for a period of 24 hours. At the
end of this period examine the material for any signs of solidification or
cracking. At -60°C the material shall not solidify or crack. A slight
increase in stiffness of the compound may be disregarded.

6.S Test Method fGr Softening PGint - The method described in


IS: 1205-1958* shall be used. The temperature of the compound shall
be 200°C for the determination of the softening point.

compound in a porcelain container fitted with 12'7 mm diameter steel or
brass electrodes set 1'25 mm apart, similar to that described in IS: 7084-

pressure ( taking 10 minutes to reduce to 10 ) to cause minimum
movement of compound. Continue the pressure reduction to less than
1'0 mm of mercury and maintain at this pressure for one hour or until all
traces of air bubbles have been removed. Slowly restore to atmosph'Cl"ic

A-2.1 Lot - In a single consignment, all the containers of the same type,
size, and drawn fi'om the same batch of manufacture shall constitute a lot.
If a consignment is dcclan:d or known to consist of different batches of
manufacture or of dilfercnt sizes of containers or of different types of
material then the containers belonging to the same batch under the Silme
size and type shall be grouped together and each such group shall
cv;~stitute a separate lot.

A-2.1.1 Samples shall be tested for each lot for ascertammg the
conformity of the material to the requirements of the specification.

A-2.2 The number of containers (n) to be selected from a lot shall depend
on the size of the lot (N) and shall be as given in Table 1.

NOTE - In the case of very small lots where the selection of three containers may be
uneconomical, thc number of containers to be selected and the criterion for judging the
conformity of the lot to the specification shall be as agreed to between the purchaser
and the supplier.

A-2.3 The containers shall be selected at random and in order to ensure the
randomness of selection, a random number table shall be used. In case
such a table is not avaifable, the following procedure may be adopted:
Starting from one container; count them in one order as
1,2,3, ..................... , up to r and so on, where r is the integral
part of N/n ( N being the lot size and n the number of containers to
be selected). Every rth container thus counted shall be withdrawn
to give samples for test.
