IEC 60811-501:2012+AMD1:2018+AMD2:2023给出了确定机械性能的程序，该程序通常适用于用于绝缘材料和护套材料的交联和热塑性化合物。IEC 60811-501:2012取消并取代已撤回的IEC 60811-1-1:19 93第9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，有一个重大的技术变化:哑铃试件的（最小）厚度要求发生了变化。另见IEC 60811-100的前言。 本出版物应与IEC 60811-100:2012一起阅读。

IEC 60811-501:2012+AMD1:2018+AMD2:2023 gives the procedure for determining the mechanical properties, which typically applies to cross-linked and thermoplastic compounds used for insulating and sheathing materials. IEC 60811-501:2012 cancels and replaces Clause 9 of IEC 60811-1-1:1993, which is withdrawn. Full details of the replacements are shown in Annex A of IEC 60811-100:2012. There is one significant technical change with respect to the previous edition: the requirements for the (minimum) thickness of dumb-bell test pieces have changed. See also the Foreword to IEC 60811-100.
This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 60811-100:2012.
