The cables are of rated voltage U0/U 300/300 V. The cable
23、s are intended for the connection of domestic appliances to the fixed supply, where an extra flexible connection is required. The maximum conductor operating temperature for the cables in this standard is 60 C. NOTE HD 516 contains extensive guidance on the safe use of cables in this standard. This
24、EN 50525-2-22 should be read in conjunction with EN 50525-1, which specifies general requirements. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the lates

NOTE A centre filler may be used. 4.1.6 Overall textile braid The assembly of cores and fillers shall be covered by a t
31、extile braid: Minimum number of threads: 60; Minimum crossings per metre: 700; Minimum number of carriers: 24. 4.1.7 Marking The cable shall be marked with the CENELEC code H03RT-H. The marking shall be printed on one of the cores, and shall comply with Clause 6 of EN 50525-1. 4.2 Requirements Each
32、cable shall comply with the appropriate requirements given in EN 50525-1, and the particular requirements of this Part. Testing shall be in accordance with Annex A. The requirement for length of lay shall be determined by measuring the length of ten pitches of a sample and dividing this length by 10
33、. The result is the length of lay of the laid-up cores. The dimensions of the cables shall conform to Table B.1 for the relevant size.
