Home >> Product >> BS6724 Cables

Applications :

• These cables are used for power and control circuits, they can offer excellent protection through the use of a heavy galvanized steel wire armour. The GSWA makes them suitable for use inside and outside buildings or for direct burial in the ground. For installation where fire, smoke emission and toxic fumes create a potential threat to life and equipment.

Construction :

• Conductor	Solid Aluminum or Copper conductor, round stranded or shaped, Class 2 to BS 6460, IEC 60228.
  Insulation	XLPE (Cross-Linked Polyethylene) Type GP 8 or ethylene propylene rubber (GP 6)
  Colour Code	1 Core : Brown
  	2 Cores: Brown, Blue
  	3 Cores: Brown, Black, Grey
  	4 Cores: Blue, Brown, Black, Grey
  	5 Cores: Green-yellow, Blue, Brown, Black, Grey
