1.1 本指南为电工产品火灾危险评估标准的制定提供了指导。在本指南中，产品包括材料、组件和最终用途产品。 1.2 本指南旨在制定标准，为评估火灾对人、动物或财产的危害提供程序。 1.3 本标准并不旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如有）。本标准的使用者有责任在使用前建立适当的安全、健康和环境实践，并确定监管限制的适用性。 1.4 该消防标准不能用于提供定量措施 . 1.5 本标准用于预测或提供涉及特定材料、产品或组件的特定火灾条件下的火灾危险的定量测量。 该评估不一定预测实际火灾的危险，实际火灾涉及分析中假设的条件以外的条件。 1.6 本国际标准是根据世界贸易组织技术性贸易壁垒（TBT）委员会发布的《国际标准、指南和建议制定原则决定》中确立的国际公认标准化原则制定的。 =====意义和用途====== 4.1 本指南适用于制定电工产品火灾危险评估标准的人员。此类标准预计对制造商、建筑师、规范编写者和具有管辖权的机构有用。 4.2 作为指南，本文件提供了火灾危险评估标准制定方法的信息；没有建立固定的程序。 数据的可用性、适当的测试程序、适当的火灾模型或科学知识的进步方面的任何限制都将对火灾危险评估程序造成重大限制。 4.3 本指南的重点是电工产品的火灾评估标准。但是，只要本指南中的概念与指南中的一致 1546年 所提出的一般概念也可能适用于流程、活动、占用和建筑。指导 2006年 包含如何在特定占用（铁路运输车辆）的火灾危险评估中使用电工产品（电缆）的火灾测试响应特性信息的示例。 4.4 遵循本指南制定的标准不应试图设置安全阈值或其他通过/失败标准。该标准应规定确定火灾危险措施所需的所有步骤，安全阈值或合格/不合格标准可由具有管辖权的机构有意义地设定。

1.1 This guide provides guidance on the development of fire hazard assessment standards for electrotechnical products. For the purposes of this guide, products include materials, components, and end-use products. 1.2 This guide is directed toward development of standards that will provide procedures for assessing fire hazards harmful to people, animals, or property. 1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.4 This fire standard cannot be used to provide quantitative measures . 1.5 This standard is used to predict or provide a quantitative measure of the fire hazard from a specified set of fire conditions involving specific materials, products, or assemblies. This assessment does not necessarily predict the hazard of actual fires which involve conditions other than those assumed in the analysis. 1.6 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. ====== Significance And Use ====== 4.1 This guide is intended for use by those undertaking the development of fire hazard assessment standards for electrotechnical products. Such standards are expected to be useful to manufacturers, architects, specification writers, and authorities having jurisdiction. 4.2 As a guide, this document provides information on an approach to the development of a fire hazard assessment standard; fixed procedures are not established. Any limitations in the availability of data, of appropriate test procedures, of adequate fire models, or in the advancement of scientific knowledge will place significant constraints upon the procedure for the assessment of fire hazard. 4.3 The focus of this guide is on fire assessment standards for electrotechnical products. However, insofar as the concepts in this guide are consistent with those of Guide E1546 , the general concepts presented also may be applicable to processes, activities, occupancies, and buildings. Guide E2061 contains an example of how to use information on fire-test-response characteristics of electrotechnical products (electric cables) in a fire hazard assessment for a specific occupancy (rail transportation vehicle). 4.4 A standard developed following this guide should not attempt to set a safety threshold or other pass/fail criteria. Such a standard should specify all steps required to determine fire hazard measures for which safety thresholds or pass/fail criteria can be meaningfully set by authorities having jurisdiction.
