British Standard Industrial Cables
0361TQ to BS 683
Application and Description
These cables are used for the transmission of high currents from the electric welding machine to the
welding tool. they are suitable for flexible use under rough conditions, on assembly lines and conveyor
systems, in machine tool and motor car manufacturing, ship building, for manually and automatically
operated line and spot welding machines.
Cable Construction
- - Extra fine bare/tinned copper strands
- Stranding to BS 6360 CL-6,or CL-5 (120mm² and above)
- Synthetic or paper separator over core
- EPR GP4(Ethylene Propylene Rubber) to BS7655
- Polychloroprene rubber (neoprene) sheath EM5, HOFR (Heat and Oil Resistant and Flame Retardant)
to BS7655 , black/ orange
Technical Characteristics
- - Working voltage: 100/100 volts
(450V for non-welding applications if suitably protected from mechanical damage)
- Test voltage: 1000 volts
- Minimum bending radius: 6xOverall diameter
- Operating temperature: -25º C to +85º C
- Flame retardant: IEC 60332.1
