Industrial Cables Single Core Fixed Wiring Cable
6181B to BS 7889
Application and Description
6181B to BS 7889e cables are designed for fixed wiring purposes in domestic and
industrial power/lighting applications. They can be installed in trunking
or conduit, or may be surface mounted when used for earthing. 6181B to BS 7889 cables are
suitable for use in areas (such as public and government buildings) where
smoke and toxic fumes may cause a threat to life and equipment. When
mechanical protection is required, they can be embedded in concrete.
