British Standard Industrial Cables
6381B to BS7211 & IEC 60502
Application and Description
These cables are suitable for D.C. power supplies on telecom equipment and power applications where
flexibility is required. The cables produce no corrosive gases when burnt which is important where
electronic equipment is installed.
