BS EN IEC 60404-13:2018

This standard BS EN IEC 60404-13:2018 Magnetic materials is classified in these ICS categories:

• 29.030 Magnetic materials
• 17.220.20 Measurement of electrical and magnetic quantities
• 29.020 Electrical engineering in general
• 19.020 Test conditions and procedures in general

This part of IEC 60404 specifies the methods used for determining the resistivity, density and stacking factor of grain-oriented and non-oriented electrical steel strip and sheet. These quantities are necessary to establish the physical characteristics of the material. Moreover, the density is necessary to allow specified values of the magnetic polarization, resistivity and stacking factor to be determined.

Since these properties are functions of temperature, the measurements will be made at an ambient temperature of (23 ±5) °C except when specified in this document.
