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.
