This section of IEC 60584 outlines the manufacturing tolerances for extension and compensating cables (excluding mineral insulated cables) supplied directly to users in industrial processes. These tolerances are established based on the e.m.f.-temperature relationship defined in Part 1 of the standard.
The document also describes the method for identifying insulated thermocouple extension and compensating cables, aside from mineral insulated types. Additionally, it specifies the requirements for extension and compensating cables intended for use in industrial process control.
