Description

British Standard Industrial Cable 6192Y / 6193Y to BS 6004

Product Overview

The 6192Y and 6193Y are British Standard industrial cables designed for fixed installation in dry or damp premises on walls, boards, or trays, in channels, or embedded in plaster. They should be laid in conduit or trunking where mechanical protection is required.

The cables feature fine bare copper strands, PVC insulation type TI1 to BS 7655, and a PVC sheath type T6 to BS 7655. They are manufactured to BS 6004.
