BS 5308 Part 2 Type 1 Unarmoured PVC Instrumentation

Cables

Originally developed for communications and signalling within the process control industry BS 5308 part 2 cables are now widely used in other industrial applications. The screening combination offers excellent protection from electromagnetic interference. These cables are suitable for fixed installation when there is no risk of mechanical damage.

Construction

Type: CAT – Collective Aluminium Tape Screen

Plain annealed copper wire conductors to IEC 60228, class 1, 2 or 5, PVC insulation, laid up as cores or twisted into pairs or triples, overall aluminium/polyester foil screen and 0.5mm² tinned copper drain wire, RP-PVC sheath – black or blue.

Type: ICAT – Individual & Collective Aluminium Tape Screen

Plain annealed copper wire conductors to IEC 60228, class 1, 2 or 5, PVC insulation, cores twisted into pairs or triples, each pair aluminium/polyester foil screen and 0.5mm² tinned copper drain wire, units laid up, collective aluminium/polyester foil screen and 0.5mm² tinned copper drain wire, RP-PVC sheath – black or blue.

Pair Identification

CAT: Cables up to 50 pair are colour coded in accordance with BS 5308 pt 2, appendix A. Two pair cables are twisted as a quad and coloured blue, green, orange, brown.

ICAT: Each pair white, blue and numbered.
