Industrial Cables-British Standard
318TRS to BS 6500
Application and Description
318TRS to BS 6500 cables are suitable for use with electronics and electrical equipment such as appliances,
small hand tools and office equipment, where the cables may be subject to light and medium stresses in both
dry and damp environments. They can be used in flat irons, soldering irons, kitchen aids, toasters, stoves in
connections with light commercial electric tools. They are also suitable for fixed installation in furniture,
decorative coverings, wall partitions and pre-fabricated building parts. 318TRS is equivalent to harmonized code
H05RR-F.
