CABLE CONSTRUCTION
Conductor:Annealed copper conductor，class 1 (1.0mm² to 2.5mm²) or class 2 (4mm² to 35mm²) according to BS
EN 60228.
Insulation:PVC Type TI 1 according to BS EN 50363-3.
Circuit Protective Conductor (CPC):Annealed plain copper (class 1 or 2)
Position of CPC:Centrally placed between cores in same plane (twin); centrally placed between black and grey
cores in same plane(3-core).
Outer Sheath:PVC Type 6 according to BS 7655-4.2.
Outer Sheath Option:UV resistance,hydrocarbon resistance,oil resistance,anti rodent and anti termite properties
can be offered as option. Compliance to fire performance standard (IEC 60332-1,IEC 60332-3,UL 1581,UL 1666
etc) depends on the oxygen index of the PVC compound and the overall cable design. LSPVC can also be
provided upon request.
