BS 5308 Cables
BS5308 Cable Part 2 Type1
PVC-IS-OS-PVC
Application
BS5308 Cable Part 2 Type1 PVC-IS-OS-PVC are generally use for indoor installation and suitable for wet and
damp areas. Generally used within industrial process manufacturing plants for communication, data and voice
transmission signals and services, Also used for the interconnection of electrical equipment and instruments,
typically in chemical or petrolchemical industry.
