German Standard Industrial Cable H03V2V2-F / H03V2V2H2-F
Product Overview
The H03V2V2-F and H03V2V2H2-F are German standard industrial cables designed for domestic premises, kitchens, offices, and light service or light portable apparatuses. With their special insulation and sheath compounds, these cables are adapted for apparatus in kitchens and heating, and for use in zones with high temperatures (such as lighting system apparatuses) without contact with warm parts and radiation.
They are unsuitable for outdoor use, in industrial and agricultural buildings, or for non-domestic portable tools. The maximum conductor temperature in normal use is 90°C. While high-temperature use, skin contact must be avoided.
The cables are manufactured to <HAR> HD 21.12; HD 308 S2, DIN VDE 0281 part 1, part 12; DIN VDE 0293 part 308; DIN VDE 0295, CEI 20-20/12, CEI 20-35 (EN60332-1) / CEI 20-37 (EN50267), EN50265-2-1.
