Standard Test Conditions
Tests shall, unless otherwise specified, be carried out at 15 to 35°C and RH 45 to 75%.If any doubt and argument has been
encounter in judgement, the final test shall be done at 25 ±2°C, RH45 to 55% and 860 ~ 1060mbar. (Based on JIS standard).
Disposition
If question to the measuring result in judgement, take the capacitor under a specified temperature for 30 minutes at least before
measurement.
