OANZ2 is the CCN if UL510 is the scoped standard. Also consider the requirements of UL 746A.
Many PET tapes used for transformer construction (most use acrylic adhesive) are rated V-0 and/or VTM-0. The principle reason for the "VTM" rating is because the tapes may be too thin, so cannot support themselves in a vertical position during the flame test. luck, Brian > -----Original Message----- > From: emc-p...@ieee.org [mailto:emc-p...@ieee.org]On Behalf > Of McInturff > Gary > Sent: Monday, April 17, 2006 7:43 AM > To: Scott Douglas; Robert Johnson > Cc: George Stults; emc-p...@ieee.org > Subject: RE: looking for plastic tape, ul approved adhesive, v1 or > better > > I think the flame rating you are looking for is VTM (Vertical Thin > material) and as Robert Johnson writes below it is indeed > testing afixed > to a test mandril.
