Note: Asterisk * denotes superseded standard. VOLTAGE RATING 300/500 V CABLE CONSTRUCTION Conductors: Plain annealed copper wire, solid according to IEC(EN) 60228 class 1, stranded according to IEC(EN) 60228 class 2. Insulation: Mica glass fire resistant tape covered by fire resistant silicone rubber compound type EI2 as per BS 7655-1.1. Cabling: The cores are cabled together in concentric layers with suitable non-hygroscopic fillers. Overall screen: Aluminum/polyester tape with tinned copper drain wire. Circuit Protective Conductor: Uninsulated tinned copper conductor of the same section and class as the insulated conductors in the 2-, 3- and 4-core cables. Drain wire of 0.5mm2 tinned copper conductor is provided in cables of more than 4 conductors. Outer Sheath: Thermoplastic LSZH compound type LTS3 as per BS 7655-6.1 (Thermosetting LSZH compound type SW2-SW4 as per BS 7655-2.6 can be offered.)
