Industrial Cables-British Standard
380TQ to BS 6500
Application and Description
380TQ to BS 6500 cables are designed for temporary building sites as extension leads for portable or fixed
equipment. The copper braid prevents earth leakage and offers mechanical protection.

-
Fine bare copper strands
Stranding to BS 6360 CL-5 or IEC 60228 CL-5
EPR insulation
CSP(Chlorosulphonated Polyethylene), HOFR (Heat and Oil Resistant and Flame Retardant) bedding
TCWB(tinned copper wire braid)
CSP(Chlorosulphonated Polyethylene), HOFR (Heat and Oil Resistant and Flame Retardant) sheath
Core Identification
-
2cores: Brown, Blue
3cores: Green/Yellow + Brown, Blue
4cores: Green/Yellow, Brown, Black, Grey
5cores: Green/Yellow, Blue, Brown, Black, Grey
6 cores and above: white insulation with black numerals
