Industrial Cables Multi-Core Flexible Cables

Arctic Grade to BS 6500

 

 

 

Application and Description:

Arctic Grade to BS 6500 cables are designed to withstand severe external temperatures. The Arctic Grade PVC mains cords generally manufactured to BS6500 will remain flexible at temperatures down to minus -20°C making them particularly suitable for outdoor applications and for use where flexibility is required at sub zero temperatures. At normal temperatures the cable is very limp and flexible, offering some of the characteristics usually found in elastomeric cables.

Cable Construction:

Fine bare copper strands

Stranding to BS 6360 Class 5or IEC 60228 Class 5

Arctic grade PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) insulation
