Abstract

Specifies constructional and test requirements for insulating gloves used to provide protection against electric shocks where the working voltages do not exceed 650 V, 1000 V, 3300 V or 4000 V in four classes of gloves.

Scope

This Standard sets out the requirements for three types of insulating gloves (as classified in Clause 4) used for electrical purposes where the working potentials do not exceed 650 V, 1000 V, 3300 V, or 4000 V (whether a.c. r.m.s., or d.c.), between any two conductors or between any conductor and earth.
NOTE: For the purposes of this Standard, the term 'glove(s)' applies to insulating gloves used for electrical purposes.
