This part of IEC 60794 applies to optical fibre cables for use with telecommunication equipment and devices employing similar techniques, and to cables having a combination of both optical fibres and electrical conductors.
The document defines test procedures to be used in establishing uniform requirements for torsion performance.
Throughout this document, the wording "optical cable" also includes optical fibre units, microduct fibre units, etc.
See IEC 60794-1-2 for a reference guide to test methods of all types and for general requirements and definitions.
