This European Standard specifies the composition, property requirements including electrical properties, and tolerances on dimensions and form for copper profiles and profiled wire for electrical purposes, which would fit within a circumscribing circle of maximum 180 mm diameter. The sampling procedures, the test methods for verification of conformity to the requirements of this standard, and the delivery conditions are also specified.
