Industrial Cables-British Standard
318A/3192A to BS 6004(Formerly BS 7919)

Application and Description

These cables are designed to withstand severe external temperatures and will remain flexible at temperatures down to -40°C. Making them particularly suitable for outdoor applications and for use where flexibility is required at sub zero temperatures. At normal temperatures the cable is very flexible, offering some of the characteristics usually found in elastomeric cables.,

Cable Construction

• - Anealed copper conductor
• - Stranding to BS 6360 CL-5 or IEC 60228 CL-5
• - PVC core insulation TI 4 to EN 50363-3-1(formerly BS 7655-3-1)
• - Green/Yellow grounding (3 conductors and above)
• - PVC outer jacket Type 10 to BS7655-4-2
• - Yellow or blue

Core Identification

• 2 Cores: Brown, Blue
• 3 Cores: Green/Yellow, Blue, Brown
• 4 Cores: Green/Yellow, Brown, Black, Grey or Green/Yellow, Blue, Brown, Black
• 5 Cores: Green/Yellow, Blue,Brown, Black, Grey

Technical Characteristics

• - Working voltage: 300/500 volts
• - Test voltage: 2000 volts
• - Flexing bending radius: 6xOverall diameter
• - Fixed bending radius: 4xOverall diameter
• - Flexing temperature: -5o C to +70o C
• - Static temperature: -40o C to +70o C
• - Short circuit temperature: +160o C
• - Flame retardant: IEC 60332.1
