The 0.6/1 kV thermosetting insulated power cables of BS 7889 are suitable for fixed laying in industrial areas, buildings and similar applications with a rated AC voltage of 0.6/1 kV and below;

The conductor of the cable is a stranded copper conductor, the insulation is a thermosetting insulation, and a PVC sheath. The number of cores can be 1 core, 2 cores, 3 cores, 4 cores, 5 cores.

Cables of this standard have no armor.

The long-term allowable operating temperature of the cable conductor is 90°C; when it is short-circuited, it does not exceed 250°C (the maximum short-circuit time is 5s).

This cable is not suitable for burial.

Features

Thermosetting insulated cables have the advantages of good heat aging resistance, simple structure, convenient use, and high long-term working temperature (90°C).

Application

This cable is suitable for fixed laying in areas that are not easily damaged, in bridges, in air, in pipelines, etc.
