IEC TS 60695-11-11:2016 describes a test method used to determine the characteristic heat flux for ignition (CHFI) from a non-contacting flame source for materials used in electrotechnical products and sub-assemblies. It provides a relationship between ignition time and incident heat flux. A test specimen cut from an end-product or sub-assembly can be tested by this test method. This basic safety publication is intended for use by technical committees in the preparation of standards in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 104 and ISO/IEC Guide 51. Keywords: Fire Hazard, Fire Test Method, Test Flames, Ignition

This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 60695-11-4:2011.
