NameStandard Specification for Electrical cords
DescriptionCovers flexible cords for use on domestic appliances requiring an electrical voltage not exceeding 300 V to earth, including non-domestic appliances available for operation by members of the public. Flexible cords used for the internal wiring of electrical apparatus, pre-wired pendant cords for the static suspension of lighting fittings, cords with more than seven conductors, tinsel and screened flexible cords and cords for use in circuits not exceeding 40 V to earth, are excluded from the requirements of the specification. Covers apparatus connectors, inlet sockets and inlet plugs, intended to form detachable connectors between single-phase portable domestic electrical appliances and flexible cords for the operation of such appliances at voltage not exceeding 250 volts. This standard specifies requirements dimensions for PVC-insulated cables for operation at nom-inal voltages up to and including 1900 V to armour or earth and 3300 V between conductors. The standard covers cables intended for general use where the combination of the ambient temperature and temperature rise due to the loading current results in a conductor temperature not exceeding 70 oC. Specifies the general aspects of pipes, joints, fittings (post-formed and moulded) and ancillaries, made of unplasticized poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC-U), for a piping system intended to be used for buried water mains and services and for water supplies above ground, both inside and outside buildings.
