Industrial Cables-British Standard
638TQ to BS 7919
Application and Description
638TQ to BS 7919 cables are can be used either in dry, humid or wet places, in contact with oil or grease, in
weather conditions and under medium mechanical stress, 638TQ to BS 7919 cables are suitable for power
supply to equipment in industrial plants, large size boilers, heating plates, portable lamps, electrical tools such
as drilling machines, disk saws, portable engines and machines, building and farming equipments etc. 638TQ to
BS 7919 cables are also suitable for stationary equipments designed for wind-tower application. The particular
cable construction and the special sheath materials have improved the cable torsion resistance (max150°/m),
which is a key requirement for drop cables in wind-generators. 638TQ to BS 7919 cables are also suitable on
plaster in temporary buildings and builders huts, and wiring in machinery elevators. 638TQ is equivalent to
harmonized code H07BN4-F.
