IEC 60794-1-403:2021规定了验证电缆金属元件在整个电缆中电气连续性的方法。电气连续性对于连接和接地、位置调整和其他相关系统问题非常重要，可能代表“制造优度”标准。通常，该测试是连续性测试，无电阻或导电性要求。金属元素可以单独测试，也可以作为一个整体进行测试。由于后一种标准经常出现，除非另有规定，否则所有元素均作为一组进行测量。 ;笔记 详细规范可能允许强度构件等元件在整个电缆中不连续。这是一种特殊情况，请注意详细规范。

IEC 60794-1-403:2021 specifies a method of verifying that cable metallic elements are electrically continuous throughout the cable. Electrical continuity is important for bonding and grounding, toning for location, and other related system issues, and may represent a "goodness of manufacture" criterion. Typically, the test is one of continuity and carries no resistance or conductivity requirement. The metallic elements can be tested individually or can be tested as a total group. Since this latter criterion is frequently the case, all elements are measured as a group unless specified otherwise.;NOTE It is possible detail specifications allow such elements as strength members to be non-continuous throughout the cable. This is a special case, and attention is directed to the detail specification.
