French Standard Industrial Cables
H05V-R/H07V-R

Application and Description

These cables are preferably for installation indoors, in cable ducts and in industrial plants or switching stations, under ground installation. Can be used in switchboards and distributor boards or where a thicker strand of multi-wire is required. 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.
