IEC 60793-1-1 pdf download – Optical fibres – Part 1-1: Measurement methods and test procedures – General and guidance
1Scope and object
This part of lEC 60793 lists and gives guidance on the use of documents giving the uniformrequirements for measuring and testing optical fibres, thereby assisting in the inspection offibres and cables for commercial (mostly telecommunications) purposes.
The individual measurement and test methods are contained in the different parts of theIEC 60793 series. They are identified as IEC 60793-1-X,where “X” is an assigned sub-partnumber，indicating its affiliation to lEC60793-1.
In general，measurements and tests methods apply to all class A multimode fibres andClass B single-mode optical fibres covered by the lEc 60793-2 series, although there may beexceptions.Clause 1 of each part of lEC 60793 contains the scope for each particularattribute.

5 Standard atmospheric measurement and test conditions
Standard atmospheric conditions need to be controlled within some range to ensure proper correlation of data obtained from measurements and tests conducted in various facilities. Conduct measurement and test conditions under the following atmospheric conditions, unless otherwise specified. In some cases, special ambient conditions may be needed and can be specified in the detail specification.
