What is Mains Cable?
A mains power cable connects an appliance to a mains electricity supply through the use of a wall socket or an extension lead which will then be plugged into a mains supply
Cable Construction
This flexible electrical power cable consists of cores made up of fine stranded copper conductors or wires. Each individual core is surrounded by colour coded PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) insulation for easy identification of the wires. All the cores are then surrounded by a final outer layer of PVC called a sheath or jacket.
What Does H05VV-F Mean?
H05VV-F mains power cable (also known as 318-Y cable) is a type of harmonized cable which means it belongs to the Harmonised Reference System and conforms to the European Harmonisation Standard. This purpose of this standard is to improve standards and quality across Europe to ensure the trade of common standard product.
H05VV-F is the code for this harmonised power cable which breaks down into the following:
H = Harmonised
05 = 300V / 500V voltage rating
V = PVC insulation
V = PVC sheath
F = Flexible copper conductors
