Description

V75 PVC Ordinary Duty Flexible Cord, 250/400V

Product Overview

The V75 PVC Ordinary Duty Flexible Cord is a 250/400V low voltage flexible cord designed for installation in dry applications only, in conduit or enclosures, such as switchboards, control panels, appliances, and electrical equipment such as radios, desk lamps, and office machines. It is also used for extension leads in sizes 1 mm² and above.

Multicore cords containing an E core are suitable for a number of applications in dry and damp conditions, such as domestic appliances (washing machines, dishwashers), and leads for industrial and office equipment requiring a three-phase supply and an earth connection. The cord features an annealed copper conductor to AS/NZS 1125, V-75 PVC insulation, and a 4V-75 PVC sheath, with a maximum continuous operating temperature of 75°C. It is manufactured to AS/NZS 3191 and AS/NZS 1125.
