    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Pertains to single core, crosslinked elastomer covered arc welding cables.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard applies to single core, crosslinked elastomer covered arc welding cables.

    The cables are of rated voltage U0/U 100/100V.

    The cables are intended for connections between the welding power source and the electrode holder and the work piece.

    Two types of cable are included, with respectively Class D and Class E conductors. These conductors are more flexible than Class 6 to EN60228, with Class E having the greater flexibility.

    The maximum conductor operating temperature for each of the cables in this standard is 85°C.

    NOTE HD 516 contains extensive guidance on the safe use of cables in this standard, and gives specific current ratings and volt drop data.

    This EN50525-2-81 should be read in conjunction with EN50525-1, which specifies general requirements.
