conditions: – temperature, – sample length and record the corrected values for the reference length R e q u i re m e n t s The surface of the tubular outer conductor corresponding to the immersed length shall be correctly tinned, i e more than 95 % of this surface shall be wetted by solder, the spots and marks of soldering shall not be concentrated in one area and they shall not exceed % of
