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.
Cable Construction


- 
        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 
Technical Characteristics
- 
                          Working voltage: 300/500 volts Minimum bending radius: 8.0xOverall diameter Temperature Range: -20º C to +85º C Flame retardant: IEC 60332.1 - Insulation resistance: 20 MΩxkm
