H05V-R / H07V-R German Standard Industrial Cable , 300/500V & 450/750V – VDE

Low Voltage Power Cables

German Standard Industrial Cable H05V-R / H07V-R

Product Overview

The H05V-R and H07V-R are German standard industrial cables preferably for installation indoors, in cable ducts and in industrial plants or switching stations, under ground installation. They can be used in switchboards and distributor boards or where a thicker strand of multi-wire is required. They are also found in electronic and electrical equipment and switchgear cabinets designed for export to a European country and for MRO replacement of European made equipment wire.

The cables are manufactured to <HAR> HD 21.3 S3, BS 6004, VDE-0281 Part-3, CEI 20-20/3, CEI 20-35 (EN60332-1), CEI 20-52, and comply with the CE Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC and 93/68/EEC. They are also ROHS compliant.
