BS 6724 Cables

BS 6724 Armoured Power Cables, 600/1000V

Two-core 600/1000 V cables with solid aluminum conductors

BS 6724 cables cables are used for power and control circuits,BS 6724 cables 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. For installation where fire, smoke emission and toxic fumes

create a potential threat to life and equipment.
