This part of IEC 61 300 provides general information and guidance for the basic test and measurement procedures defined in IEC 61 300-2 (all parts) and IEC 61 300-3 (all parts) for interconnecting devices, passive components, mechanical splices, fusion splice protectors, fibre management systems and protective housings.
This document is used in combination with the relevant specification which defines the tests to be used, the required degree of severity for each of them, their sequence, if relevant, and the permissible performance limits. In the event of conflict between this document and the relevant specification, the latter takes precedence.
