The principle test uses a heated manikin, a thermal insulation value is determined from the power required to maintain the manikin at a constant temperature. This value is used to classify the performance of the garment. This insulation value of the clothing, the activity level of the wearer and the temperature of the environment can be used to estimate the maximum duration of wear.
