PVC Flexible Cables

PVC Flexible Cables are designed for applications requiring high flexibility, durability, and reliable electrical performance. These cables are widely used in household appliances, office equipment, and industrial machinery.

Construction

Conductors

It is the current carrying component of the cable.

Material:

Flexible Class 5 plain annealed high purity copper conductors as per BS EN 60228

The conductor offers excellent electrical conductivity and superior mechanical flexibility due to advanced construction design.

Insulation

The insulation separates conductive components and prevents transfer of electricity or heat.

Material:

PVC Type TI2 as per BS EN 50363-3

PVC insulation provides excellent electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties suitable for flexible applications.

Sheathing

Protective outer covering of the cable.

Material:

PVC Type TM2 as per BS EN 50363-4-1

The sheath ensures protection against mechanical damage, abrasion, and environmental exposure.
