Section7ELECTRICALPROPERTIES-TYPETESTS Abstract
Covers the testing and qualification of calendered aramid papers for use as electrical insulation. Aramid polymers can be processed into various forms, including fiber, paper, resin, film, or pressboard. This result of a collaboration between NEMA members and the military to develop a non-governmental standard that the military could adopt in lieu of its own standard, traditionally referred to as a specification.
