PREFACE
This Standard was prepared by the Joint Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand
Committee EL/3 on Electric Wires and Cables to supersede (in part) AS 1194.2 —1983
and NZS/AS 1194.2 — 1983, Winding wires, Part 2: Enamelled rectangular copper
winding wires. This Standard is part of a series, the other parts being:
AS/NZS
1194.1 Enamelled round copper winding wires
1194.3 Enamelled round aluminium winding wires
1194.4 Enamelled rectangular aluminium winding wires
1194.5 Test methods
Requirements and tests are equal or superior to those specified in IEC 317, Specifications
for particular types of winding wires and IEC 851, Methods of test for winding wires.

1.1 SCOPE This Standard specifies requirements for enamelled rectangular copper
winding wires to be used for windings of electrical equipment.
Dimensions and material requirements for the conductor and enamelled covering are

specified.
NOTE: See Appendix A for abbreviations of enamel names.
1.3 DEFINITIONS For the purpose of this Standard, the definitions below apply.
1.3.1 Conductor— the bare metal remaining after removal of all covering.
1.3.2 Crack — an opening in the enamel covering which exposes the conductor to view
at the stated magnification.
1.3.3 Grade of enamel —an expression used to designate the thickness of enamel
covering. It is used in the form Grade 1 and Grade 2, the higher grade number designating
thicker enamel.
1.3.4 Increase in dimensions due to enamel — this can be defined as follows:
(a) The difference between the overall thickness and the conductor thickness, reported
as ‘increase in thickness’ due to enamel.
(b) The difference between the overall width and the conductor width, reported as the
‘increase in width’ due to enamel.
1.3.5 Loss of adhesion —the absence of bond between the enamel and the conductor as
exhibited by relative movement between the two.
1.3.6 Overall thickness— the thickness dimension measured across the final wire
including the final layer of covering (see AS/NZS 1194.5).
1.3.7 Overall width— the width dimension measured across the wire including the final
layer of covering (see AS/NZS 1194.5).
