1.1 本试验方法涵盖了确定电介质覆鞋和套鞋鞋的“电介质强度”的试验。测试在电介质鞋的最大可能面积上进行，不允许电极之间发生闪络。 1.2 电介质鞋的使用和维护不在本试验方法的范围内。 1.3 本标准并非旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如有）。本标准的用户有责任在使用前制定适当的安全、健康和环境实践，并确定监管限制的适用性。 具体危险说明见 5.2 . 1.4 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《关于制定国际标准、指南和建议的原则的决定》中确立的国际公认标准化原则制定的。 ====意义和用途====== 4.1 工人的电气接触伤害可能涉及通过工人脚的电流路径。本规范涵盖的鞋类具有介电额定值，可为穿着者提供额外的绝缘和隔离。 该测试方法将确定电介质鞋在测试时具有电介质完整性。

1.1 This test method covers testing to determine the “Dielectric Strength” of dielectric overfoot and overshoe footwear. Testing is done over the maximum possible area of the dielectric footwear without permitting flashover between electrodes. 1.2 The use and maintenance of dielectric footwear is beyond the scope of this test method. 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. Specific hazard statements appear in 5.2 . 1.4 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 Electrical contact injuries to workers may involve a current path through the feet of the worker. The footwear covered by this specification is dielectrically rated to provide additional insulation and isolation to the wearer. This test method will determine that dielectric footwear has dielectric integrity at the time of the test.
