IEC 60811-406:2012给出了评估通常用于通信和光缆的聚乙烯和聚丙烯化合物的抗应力开裂性的程序。IEC 60811-406:2012取消并取代已撤回的IEC 60811-4-1:20 04第8条。IEC 60811-100:2012附录A中显示了替换件的全部详细信息。与上一版本相比没有具体的技术变化，但请参见IEC 60811-100:2012的前言。 本出版物应与IEC 60811-100:2012一起阅读。

IEC 60811-406:2012 gives the procedure for evaluating the resistance to stress cracking of polyethylene and polypropylene compounds which are typically used for communication and optical fibre cables. IEC 60811-406:2012 cancels and replaces Clause 8 of IEC 60811-4-1:2004, which is withdrawn. Full details of the replacements are shown in Annex A of IEC 60811-100:2012. There are no specific technical changes with respect to the previous edition, but see the Foreword to IEC 60811-100:2012.

This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 60811-100:2012.
