Use and installation method

Reference Guide EN 50565:
They can be used both indoors and outdoors, in dry, damp or wet conditions. Suitable for heavy-duty uses and to power industrial and farm machinery. For connections undergoing moderate mechanical stresses, such as those in power tools (drills, circular saws, electrical home appliances) and heaters, as long as they do not touch hot parts and are not exposed to heat radiation. Avoid skin contact if they are used at high operating temperatures. Suitable to be used for fixed installations on temporary building fronts and workmen’s shelter at work sites. Suitable up to 1000 V A.C. for fixed installations and duly shielded (in ducts and equipment). Not suitable for underground laying, even if shielded.

Reference Construction Products Regulation 305/2011 EU and Standard EN 50575:
The cable is suitable for the supply of electricity in buildings and other civil engineering works.

Special features

Good resistance to mechanical stress and abrasion.
Good flexibility and behaviour at low temperatures.
Good resistance to UV (ISO 4892-2).
Absence of halogens. Sea water resistant.

Installation conditions

• Minimum installation temperature: -40°C
• Recommended minimum bending radius: ~6 times the cable diameter for mobile use, 4 times for static use
• Recommended maximum tensile stress: 15 N/mm² of the cross-section of the copper for mobile use, 50 N/mm² for static use.

Construction

• Conductor: class 5, flexible, plain copper wire
• Insulation: EPR rubber compound, quality EI6 (thicknesses according to IEC 60502-1)
• Filler (optional): LS0H rubber, penetrating between the cores (only in multi-core cables)
• Sheath: LS0H TMPU polyurethane
• Colour: orange

LS0H = Low Smoke Zero Halogen
