BS EN 4608 is a European Standard that specifies the characteristics of gauge 24 two-core lightweight fireproof, screened, electrical cables for data transmission systems of aircraft at operating temperatures between - 65 °C and 260 °C.
These cables are UV Laser printable by EN 3838.
BS EN 4608-005 on the product standard for lightweight two-core gauge 24 electrical cables is relevant to:
Two core cable is used to connect small appliances which are double insulated and need no earth. The cable only has two cores being live and neutral.
BS EN 4608-005 guides you regarding the materials for screens and outer jackets and the construction of cables to standardize the production of cables and achieve consistency and performance.
BS EN 4608-005 also provides you with the test method for testing lightweight two-core gauge 24 electrical cables, to ensure the operability and flexibility of cables.
With compliance and obedience to BS EN 4608-005, you can demonstrate the reliability of your two-core gauge electrical cables and build trust in their use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
