Industrial Cables Multi-Core Flexible Cables

309Y to BS 6500

Application and Description

309Y to BS 6500 cables are suitable for domestic premises, kitchen, office for light service or light portable apparatuses. With their special insulation and sheath compounds, these cables are adapted for apparatus in kitchen and heating and for use in zones with high temperature (like lighting system apparatuses) without contact with warm parts and radiations. Unsuitable for outdoor use, in industrial and agricultural buildings or non-domestic portable tools. 309Y is equivalent to harmonized code H05V2V2-F.
