Foreword
This document (EN 1976:2012) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 133 “Copper and copper
alloys”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical
text or by endorsement, at the latest by April 2013, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the
latest by April 2013.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes EN 1976:1998.
This is one of a series of European Standards for products manufactured from refined copper grades.
Other products are specified as follows:
 EN 1977, Copper and copper alloys — Copper drawing stock (wire rod);
 EN 1978, Copper and copper alloys — Copper cathodes.

In comparison with the first edition(standards.iteh.ai)
of EN 1976:1998, the following significant changes were made:
a) Clause 3, Terms and definitions for the various refinery shapes have been added from ISO 197-2;

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the composition and physical properties of cast unwrought copper products
(refinery shapes) in thirteen grades of copper and nine silver-bearing copper grades. The refinery shapes
included are horizontally, vertically and continuously cast wire bars, cakes, billets and ingots. Wire bars, cakes
and billets are intended for fabricating into wrought products; ingots are intended for alloying in wrought and
cast copper alloys.
A table indicating the refinery shapes in which each copper grade is normally available is given in Annex A.
Annex B gives information on the relationships between electrical resistivity and conductivity of copper.

4 Designations
4.1 Material
4.1.1 General
The material is designated either by symbol or number (see Tables 1 to 4).
4.1.2 Symbol
The material symbol designation is based on the designation system given in ISO 1190-1.
(standards.iteh.ai)
NOTE Although material symbol designations used in this standard might be the same as those in other standards
using the designation system given in ISO 1190-1,
SISTthe
ENdetailed composition requirements are not necessarily the same.
1976:2014
4.1.3 Number 68db69514854/sist-en-1976-2014
The material number designation is in accordance with the system given in EN 1412.
4.2 Product
The product designation provides a standardized pattern of designation from which a rapid and unequivocal
description of a product is conveyed in communication. It provides mutual comprehension at the international
level with regard to products which meet the requirements of the relevant European Standard.
The product designation is no substitute for the full content of the standard.
The product designation for products to this standard shall consist of:
 denomination (Billet, Wire bar, Cake or Ingot);
 number of this European Standard (EN 1976);
 material designation, either symbol or number (see Tables 1 to 4);
 cross-sectional shape (the following designations shall be used as appropriate: RND for round, SQR for
square, RCT for rectangular);
 nominal dimensions (diameter, or width x thickness, and length);
 nominal unit mass, (if appropriate).

SIST EN 1976:2014
EN 1976:2012 (E)
The derivation of a product designation is shown in the following example.
EXAMPLE Billets conforming to this standard, in material designated either Cu-ETP or CR004A, round cross-
section, nominal diameter 250 mm × nominal length 1 000 mm, are designated as follows:
Billet EN 1976 — Cu-ETP — RND 250 × 1 000

or

f) nominal dimensions (i.e. diameter, or width × thickness, and length) and nominal mass, where appro-
priate (see Table 7 for wire bar dimensions).
It is recommended that the product designation, as described in 4.2, is used for items b) to f).
In addition, the purchaser shall also state on the enquiry and order any of the following, if required:
g) for Cu-ETP and Cu-FRHC only: if oxygen content is higher than 0,040 % (see Table 2, Footnote b);
h) for Cu-FRHC only: if the total impurities content is higher than 0,06 % (see Table 2, Footnote d);
i) for ingots only: whether they are to be marked with a furnace charge mark;
j) the tests, if any, which the purchaser requires to be carried out by the manufacturer on the product,
selected from the tests appropriate to each copper grade given in Table 6;
k) whether a declaration of conformity is required (see 9.1);
l) whether an inspection document is required, and if so, which type (see 9.2).

SIST EN 1976:2014
EN 1976:2012 (E)
6 Requirements
6.1 Composition
The composition of the refinery shapes shall conform to the requirements for the appropriate grade given in
Tables 1 to 4.
6.2 Electrical properties
The maximum mass resistivity at 20 °C of each refinery shape shall conform to the appropriate requirements
