It supersedes BS 2G 230: 1991 whi

23、ch is withdrawn. This edition embodies the text of amendment No 1 (AMD 7066) and the draft amendment No 2. It introduces revised titles for tests, revised requirements for tests and introduces additional tests. The revised tests bring the specification into line with proposed future European Standar

24、ds that will, in due course, supersede some of the tests listed herein. This edition also takes into account developments in the revision of ISO 2635: 1979 which will be reflected in a future revision of BS G 231:1997. However, smoke production under current overload conditions is addressed in the t

25、ext for overload resistance. This revision of the standard does not include requirements or tests for the determination of smoke density or toxicity as European Standards for these tests are still under development at time of preparation of this standard. This standard forms the basis on which a ser

26、ies of individual cable specifications, e.g. BS G 232, have been prepared. The individual specifications should therefore be considered as the definitive standards. It is assumed in this British Standard that the execution of its provisions is entrusted to qualified and experienced people, for whose

27、 guidance it has been prepared. Formulae for calculating braiding details are specified in annex A and revised manufacturers identification marks are specified in annex B. WARNING This British Standard calls for the use of substances and procedures that may be injurious to health if adequate precaut

28、ions are not taken. It refers only to technical suitability and does not absolve the user from legal obligations relating to health and safety at any stage. Relative thermal life and temperature rating specified in annex C has been reproduced from ASTM D 3032-80, with permission, and formulae for ca

29、lculating conductor resistance are specified in annex D. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.

42、lour coding NOTE Details of conductors, insulation, screens, glass braids and jackets are specified in individual cable specifications. The formulae for calculating the filling factor and lay factor of screens and glass braids are specified in annex A. 4.1 Classification The cables in an individual

43、range shall be classed according to the number of cores they possess, e.g.: class 1: single core; class 2: two core; class 3: three core; class 4: four core. 4.2 Colour coding 4.2.1 General Where applicable, the colours shall be recognizable as those specified in BS 6746C. 4.2.2 Class 1 cables and s

44、heaths Class 1 cables and sheaths shall be white in accordance with BS G 250 (ISO 2574). 4.2.3 Classes 2, 3 and 4 Each core of a multi-core cable shall be colour coded as specified in BS G 250 (ISO 2574). One of the following methods shall be used to colour identify the cables.a) The cable insulatio

45、n surface shall be completely coloured to show the base colour. Where a second colour is required, this shall be in the form of a helical stripe approximately 0.75 mm wide applied with a lay length of approximately 12 times the cable diameter.b) The base colour shall be applied in a helical stripe n

46、ot less than 1.5 mm wide with a lay length of approximately 12 times the cable diameter. Where a second colour is required, this shall be applied in a helical stripe of the same lay length, but approximately 0.75 mm wide.BS 3G 230:2000 4 BSI 21 December 2001 5 Designation and marking 5.1 Designation
