本文件规定了通过测量摩擦充电产生的表面电势来确定纤维绳静电充电倾向的方法。 本文件不用于评估爆炸性环境中使用的绳索的安全性，因为安全性也取决于应用条件。 本文件中描述的试验方法仅适用于直径在12 mm和20 mm之间的纤维绳。 使用本试验方法获得的结果仅对试验方法中描述的充电机理和参数有效。 在终端应用中，充电可能会有所不同。

This document specifies a method for determining the electrostatic charging propensity of fibre ropes by measuring the surface potential generated by tribocharging. This document is not intended to be used to evaluate the safety of ropes for use in explosive atmospheres as safety also depends on application conditions. The test method described in this document is only applicable to fibre ropes of diameter between 12 mm and 20 mm. The result obtained using this test method is valid only for the charging mechanism and parameters described in the test method. Charging can be different in end-use applications.
