BS 5467 Cables

Five-core 600/1000 V cables with stranded copper conductors

BS 5467 cables are used for power and control circuits, they can offer excellent protection through the use of a

heavy galvanized steel wire armour. The GSWA makes them suitable for use inside and outside buildings or for

direct burial in the ground.

Conductor :Solid Aluminum or Copper conductor, round stranded or shaped, Class 2 to BS 6460, IEC 60228.

Insulation Colour Code :XLPE (Cross-Linked Polyethylene) Type GP 8 or ethylene propylene rubber (GP 6)

1 Core : Brown

2 Cores: Brown ,Blue

3 Cores: Brown, Black, Grey

4 Cores: Blue, Brown, Black, Grey

5 Cores: Green/Yellow, Blue, Brown, Black, Grey

Above 5 Cores: White Cores with black numbers

Bedding Armour Outer Sheath :

a)extruded layer of polymeric material,

b)or a taped bedding consist of two or more layers of PVC tape or other synthetic tape, for the cable having

conductor area of 16mm2 and above

Voltage rating 600/1000V

Temperature rating 0°C to +90°C

Bending radius 1.5mm² to 16mm²: 6 x overall diameter

25mm² and above: 8 x overall diameter
