Scope
This section of BS 7870 specifies requirements for the construcion,dimensions and mechanical and electrical properties of concentric copper wire combined neutral/earth(CEN) service cables having a rated voltage of 0.6/1(1.2)kV. It specifies requirements for the following types of cable: a) single phase or 3-phase; b) stranded copper or solid aluminium conductors; c) XLPE insulation and PVC oversheath. This section of BS 7870 is applicable to cables that are designed for a maximum continous conductor operating temperature of 90℃ and for a maximum short circuit conductor temperature of 250℃.
