Electrical equipment for mines and quarries - Bolted explosion-protected three-phase cable coupling devices

Specifies the design and test requirements for bolted explosion-protected three-phase cable coupling devices and adaptors of the pin and socket type, referred to in This Standard as ‘cable coupling devices’, for use with restricted earth-fault systems in mines and quarries. The devices are designed to couple cables together, or to couple a cable to equipment.
