Scope
This British Standard specifies requirements for the construction, dimensions and mechanical and electrical properties of insulated flexible cables for operation at voltages up to and including 450 V a.c. to earth and 750 V a.c. between conductors, intended for use with appliances and equipment in industrial or similar environments for ordinary or heavy duty. A guide to the use of the cables specified in this standard is given in Annex A. Guidance to manufacturers on procedures for routine testing is given in Annex B. Test methods are given in Annex C, Annex D, Annex E, Annex F, Annex G, Annex I and Annex K. The types of cables included in this standard are as follows: Table 10 Ordinary duty rubber insulated and sheathed flexible cable, 3-core and 4-core. (H05RR-F) 300/500 V; Table 11 Ordinary duty heat resisting 90 °C EPR or equivalent synthetic elastomer insulated and sheathed flexible cable, 3-core and 4-core. (H05BB-F) 300/500 V; Table 12 Heavy duty heat resisting 90 °C EPR or equivalent synthetic elastomer insulated and sheathed flexible cable, single-core, circular twin, 3-core, 4-core and 5-core. (H07BB-F) 450/750 V; Table 13 Ordinary duty heat resisting 110 °C EVA or equivalent synthetic elastomer insulated and sheathed flexible cable, parallel twin, circular twin, 3-core, 4-core and 5-core. (H05GG-F, H05GGH2-F) 300/500 V; Table 14 Heavy duty rubber insulated, PCP or equivalent synthetic elastomer sheathed flexible cable, single-core, circular twin, 3-core, 4-core and 5-core. (H07RN-F) 450/750 V; Table 15 Heavy duty rubber insulated, PCP or equivalent synthetic elastomer sheathed flexible cable, 6-core, 12-core, 18-core, 24-core and 36-core. (H07RN-F) 450/750 V; And Table 16-44.
