Industrial Cables-British Standard
3192Y to BS 6500(New BS EN 50525-2-11)
Application and Description
These cables are suited for medium mechanical stress in damp and wet environments such as
refrigerators, washing machines, spin dryers and other appliances, as long as it meets applicable
equipment specifications. These cables are also suited for cooking and heating apparatus, provided
that the cable does not come into direct contact with the hot parts of the apparatus or with any other
heat source. Further applications of this cable include: Fixed installation in furniture, partition walls,
decorative covering, and in the hollow spaces of prefabricated building parts. They are not suitable for
outdoor use, industrial (except clothing manufacture) or farming applications. 2192Y is equivalent to
harmonized code H05VVH2-F.
