Nizkofrekvenčni kabli s poliolefinsko izolacijo in poliolefinskim plaščem za zaščito pred vlago (IEC 60708:2005)
Ta standard je namenjen opredelitvi kablov s poliolefinsko izolacijo za vstavitev v lokalna zunanja omrežja. Ta standard se uporablja za telefonske kable s poliolefinsko izolacijo in poliolefinskim plaščem za zaščito pred vlago, ki so ali niso polnjeni z bakrenimi vodniki in se uporabljajo kot: a) kabli, primerni za napeljavo v kanale; b) kabli, primerni za neposreden vkop v zemljo; c) kabli z vgrajeno prekinitveno žico za antenske napeljave. Ta standard je v skladu s priporočili ITU-T. Ta standard vključuje splošne podrobnosti o zasnovi in zahteve za mere ter druge konstrukcijske podrobnosti kot tudi mehanske, električne in okoljske lastnosti za vse vrste nizkofrekvenčnih kablov s poliolefinsko izolacijo (trde ali mobilne), polnjene ali nepolnjene, in kable s poliolefinskim plaščem za zaščito pred vlago (z vgrajeno prekinitveno žico).
