Their design is based on the requirements of the EN 50290-2-1. They are specifically designed for cabling in re
20、sidential environment supporting ICT and BCT applications. (Telephone, Computer and TV services). This specification defines the constructional details as well as the specific performances of the cables. Unless otherwise specified, all cables covered by this standard may be subjected to voltages not
21、 more than 300 V a.c. or 450 V d.c. and shall meet the essential requirements of the low voltage directive. Due to current limitation related to the conductor cross sectional area, they are not intended for direct connection to mains electricity supply. The maximum current rating per conductor is le
