    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    EN 50525-2-12 applies to thermoplastic (PVC) insulated and PVC sheathed extensible leads. The cables are of rated voltages U0/U up to and including 300/500 V. The cables are intended for the connection of domestic appliances to the fixed supply. Circular cables and flat cables are included. The maximum conductor operating temperature for each of the cables in this standard is 70 °C. NOTE HD 516 contains extensive guidance on the safe use of cables in this standard. This EN 50525-2-12 should be read in conjunction with EN 50525-1, which specifies general requirements.
