IEC EN 50525-2-83 Electrical Cables - Low Voltage Power Cables - Part 2-83: Cables for General Applications - Cross Linked Silicone Rubber Insulated Multicore Cables

EUROLAB, together with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 50525-2-83 testing. This European standard applies to multicore cables insulated and sheathed with heat resistant cross-linked silicone rubber. General textiles include knitted or non-woven types and with or without strain-bearing elements. The cables have rated voltages U0/U 300/500 V.

The cables are designed for use in high temperature areas where:

  • In fixed installations with mechanical protection; or
  • For flexible use under low mechanical stress.

The maximum conductor operating temperature for each of the cables in this standard is 180°C. HD 516 includes comprehensive guidance on the safe use of cables in this standard. This IEC EN 50525-2-83 should be read in conjunction with IEC EN 50525-1, which specifies the general requirements.

The strain bearing member shall be of a non-metallic material. The strain bearing element may be configured as a single strain bearing element or may be divided into two or more elements.

Each cable shall comply with the appropriate requirements given in IEC EN 50525-1 and the specific requirements of this part. The strain-bearing element shall have a minimum total breaking load of 240 N before and after aging over the entire cable at (200 ± 3)°C for 300 hours. The strain-bearing member shall have a limited elongation compatible with the hubs to avoid excessive stress on them.
