Seamless dielectric gloves
Dielectric gloves protect your palms and fingers from electric current. They reliably insulate the skin in case of accidental contact with a switched-on electrical circuit with a voltage of up to 1000 V and therefore are the main means of protection when servicing power plants up to 1000 V. In installations above 1000 V, gloves serve as an additional means of protection, that is, they do not provide complete safety in themselves, but enhance the effect of other protective agents.
Specifications
- The gloves are made of natural latex with a thickness of 1.3±0.2 mm and have no seams.
- The length of the gloves is at least 35 cm, and they easily slide over the sleeves of outerwear. To protect gloves from mechanical damage, it is allowed to wear leather or canvas mittens over them.
- The gloves retain their protective properties at temperature changes from -40 to +50°C. If necessary, you can wear knitted gloves underneath to warm your hands.
- The products are double marked “En” and “Ev (add)” according to GOST 12.4.103-83.
- All copies have passed the necessary tests, which is certified by the corresponding stamp.
Terms of use
- Gloves should be inspected before use. It is not allowed to work in wet, dirty or damaged gloves. To check gloves for punctures and cracks, their bells must be twisted towards the fingers (no air should escape from the fingers).
- It is strictly forbidden to tuck the edges of gloves while working.
- After work, it is recommended to wash the gloves with soap or soda and dry thoroughly.
- Once every six months, each glove must be tested in an electrical laboratory. The test mark is entered into the logbook for recording and maintaining protective equipment, and the stamp on the product itself is renewed.
Storage
Products are stored at temperatures from 0°C to +25°C and relative humidity not higher than 75%. They must be protected from direct sunlight and kept at a distance of at least 1 m from heating appliances. Oils, gasoline and other aggressive substances are not allowed to come into contact with latex.
TEST METHODS
4.1. The height of the shoe and the thickness of the heel with the sole are determined on the finished product using a height gauge (GOST 164) and a metal ruler (GOST 427). The height of the shoes is determined from the outside using a height scale with a division value of 0.1 mm, accurate to an integer. To do this, half a pair of finished shoes are placed on a smooth horizontal surface. The leg of the height gauge is brought to the point of the upper edge of the shoe, located on the middle back vertical line. A measuring ruler is inserted vertically inside the shoe so that its zero end touches the mark in the heel. The division on the ruler, located at the intersection with the lower edge of the replaceable height gauge leg, determines the height inside the shoe. The thickness of the heel with the sole is determined by the difference in heights outside and inside. (Changed edition, Amendment No. 2).
4.2.
The thickness of the shoes is determined by a thickness gauge (GOST 1135-2005 with a division value of 0.01 mm. The rubber for the top and sole of galoshes and glued boots is separated from the fabric part, after which the thickness is measured. Shaped boots, rubber boots and PVC boots are cut and the places are marked measurements in accordance with drawings 3 and 4. The thickness is measured at three points at each measurement location. The arithmetic mean of three measurements for each measurement location is taken as the result of determining the thickness. (Changed edition, Amendment No. 2).
4.3. The width of the boot top is determined on the finished product using a metal tape measure (GOST 7502) with a division value of 1.0 mm. The width of the boot shaft is determined by measuring the length of a circle drawn along the outer surface of the boot, parallel to the plane on which the boot is installed. Top width B
measured from the back line at a distance of 20 mm from the top edge. The width of the bottom of the boot is measured in accordance with Figure 4. Half of the resulting circumference is taken as the result for determining the width of the boot top. (Changed edition, Amendment No. 1, 2).
4.4. Physical and mechanical parameters according to clause 2.7 are determined in accordance with the requirements of GOST 269 and GOST 270 (type I samples, thickness (2±0.3) mm on rubber samples used for the manufacture of safety shoes) and according to GOST 11262 (on type I samples , cut from PVC boots, cast without lining). Samples are cut out from the upper part of the boot in the transverse direction.
4.5. The appearance of shoes according to paragraphs 2.8, 2.9 is determined visually.
4.6. Linear measurements to calculate the area of permissible deviations (clause 2.9) are made with a measuring metal ruler in accordance with GOST 427 with a division value of 1.0 mm, height and depth - with a caliper in accordance with GOST 166 with a division value of 0.1 mm.
4.7. The leakage current is determined on the finished product using an industrial frequency current of 50 Hz. Shoes are immersed in a metal vessel with water at a temperature of 15-35°C and filled with water so that the edges of the product protruding from the water are dry. The water level, both outside and inside horizontally installed products, should be 2 cm below the side of the galoshes and 5 cm below the edge of the lowered lapel and the edge of the boots. An electrode grounded through a milliammeter is lowered inside the product. The second terminal of the test transformer is connected to the vessel. The voltage is increased for galoshes and boots to 5 kV, and for boots to 20 kV. Test time is 2 minutes from the moment the required voltage is established. The milliammeter for measuring the current value is connected at least 30 s before the end of the test. Simultaneous testing of several samples of shoes of the same type is allowed. The sample is considered to have passed the test if, during testing, the leakage current does not exceed the established norm according to clause 2.5 and breakdown of the product does not occur, accompanied by a sharp increase in current as a result of a short circuit. If, during simultaneous testing of several products, a breakdown of one or more products occurs, it is allowed to turn off the voltage, remove the product, and then continue testing the remaining samples. The total duration of the test is 2 minutes. After drying, on products that have passed the test (for boots and bots - on the rubber or lining of the boot, for galoshes - on the insole), a stamp is placed with indelible paint indicating the test date (month and year) and the technical control number.
4.6, 4.7. (Changed edition, Amendment No. 1).
4.8. Tests for resistance to mold fungi are carried out in accordance with GOST 9.049. (Introduced additionally, Amendment No. 2).
Dielectric carpets
Dielectric rubber mats are among the additional means of electrical protection. They insulate the surface under a person and prevent current from passing through his body. Mats are used in closed and, in dry weather, open electrical installations of any voltage. They are spread on the floor in front of switches, disconnectors, switches, control units, etc. devices. In addition, rubber mats must be laid in rooms where there is a risk of accidentally touching live elements, as well as when servicing various electrical equipment: assemblies, shields, rings, electric motors, test benches.
Specifications
- The products retain their protective function at temperatures from -15 to +40°C.
- The rugs have a solid color and a corrugated front surface with a reef depth of approximately 2 mm.
- The mats are not subject to testing, but each item is inspected by a responsible employee before first use and then every six months. The results of the inspection are recorded in a special journal. If cracks, breaks, punctures or tears are detected, the mat must be replaced.
- The rugs comply with GOST 4997-75.
