BS 5467:2016 PDF

Scope: 1 Scope This British Standard specifies requirements for the construction and performance of thermosetting insulated, armoured cables of rated voltages of 600/1 000 V and 1 900/3 300 V. This British Standard is applicable to cables for use in fixed installations in industrial areas, buildings or similar applications. This British Standard specifies requirements for the following types of cables: a) 600/1 000 V cables, wire armoured and oversheathed, having single-core, two-, three-, four- and five-corestranded copper conductor; b) 600/1 000 V multicore auxiliary cables, wire armoured and oversheathed, stranded copper conductor; and c) 1 900/3 300 V cables, wire armoured and oversheathed, having single-core or three-core stranded copper conductor. This British Standard is applicable to cables that are designed for a maximum sustained conductor temperature of 90 °C and for a maximum short-circuit conductor temperature of 250 °C (for a maximum of 5 s). NOTE 1 Limitation on the temperature of the cables may be imposed in situations where they might be touched or where they could touch other materials. NOTE 2 Annex A gives a guide to the use and inst...
