When cords covered in

4、Table 10 have mixedconductor sizes, the lay shall be based on the number of conductors and the largest conductor size foundin the cord. Constructions not covered in Table 10 shall have the individual conductors laid up so that thelay shall be not more than 15 times the overall diameter of the conduc

For CXTWu, YXTWu,CXWTc, and TXc, the lay shall not be more than 30 times the overall diameter of the insulated conductor.For multiple-layer cords, the conductors in each layer shall be twisted, but the lay is not specified, exceptthat in the outer layer the lay shall be not more than 1

6、5 times the overall diameter of that layer.4.1.4.1.2 Length of lay shall be determined in accordance with the test, Length of Lay (coveredcomponents), in CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 2556, UL 2556, or NMX-J-516-ANCE.5.1.7 Weather resistance - all W cords and electric vehicle cablesAfter conditioning for 720 h
