Conductors of insulated cables

Specifies standardized nominal cross-section areas from 0,5 mm2 to 2 000 mm2, numbers and diameters of wires and resistance values of conductors in electric cables and flexible cords. Classifies conductors for: 1.Cables for fixed installations -Class 1, solid conductors; -Class 2, stranded conductors. 2.Flexible copper conductors -Class 5, -Class 6 (more flexible than Class 5). Includes table of temperature correction factors kt for conductor resistance to correct the measured resistance at t °C to 20°C. Does not apply to conductors for telecommunication purposes. Applies to conductors of special design only when stated in the specification for the type of cable. Conductors of special design are, for example. conductors for pressure cables, conductors in extra-flexible welding cables or in special types of flexible cables for having the cores twisted together with unusually short lays. This publication supersedes EN 60180 (1965). Note: -In this edition, the number of classes of conductors has been reduced from 6 to 4.

Leiter für Kabel und isolierte Leitungen

Ames des câbles isolés

Spécifie la section nominale normalisée, de 0,5 mm2 à 2 000 mm2, ainsi que le nombre et le diamètre des brins et les valeurs de résistance des âmes des conducteurs et câbles électriques isolés. Classifie les âmes pour: 1. Câbles pour installations fixes: - classe 1, âmes massives; - classe 2, âmes câblées. 2. Âmes souples en cuivre: - classe 5; - classe 6 (plus souples que classe 5). Inclut un tableau de facteurs de correction de température kt, à appliquer à la mesure de résistance de l'âme effectuée à t °C pour la ramener à 20 °C. Ne s'applique pas aux conducteurs de télécommunication, et ne s'applique aux âmes spéciales que lorsque cela est indiqué dans la spécification particulière. Les âmes spéciales sont par exemple les âmes de câbles à pression, les âmes de câbles de soudage extra-souples ou celles de certains types de câbles souples dont les conducteurs sont assemblés avec des pas exceptionnellement courts. Cette publication remplace la EN 60180 (1965). Note: - Dans cette édition, le nombre des classes de câbles a été réduit de 6 à 4.

This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2004-12-07. CENELEC members are bound to
comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European
Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration.

Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on
application to the Central Secretariat or to any CENELEC member.

This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and
notified to the Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.

CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland and United Kingdom.

Foreword
The text of document 20/718/FDIS, future edition 3 of IEC 60228, prepared by IEC TC 20, Electric cables,
was submitted to the IEC-CENELEC parallel vote and was approved by CENELEC as EN 60228 on
2004-12-07.
A draft amendment, prepared by the Technical Committee CENELEC TC 20, Electric cables, was submitted
to the formal vote and was approved by CENELEC for inclusion into EN 60228 on 2004-12-07.
This European Standard supersedes HD 383 S2:1986 + A1:1989 + A2:1993.
The principal changes with respect to HD 383 S2 are
– addition of a definition for nominal cross-sectional area;
– an increase in the range of conductor sizes in Tables 1 and 2;
– addition of a note that solid aluminium alloy conductors, having the same dimensions as aluminium
conductors, will have a higher resistance;
– strengthening of the recommendations for dimensional limits of compacted stranded copper
conductors.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2005-09-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2007-12-01
Annex ZA, Special national conditions, has been added by CENELEC.
The contents of the corrigendum of May 2005 have been included in this copy.
__________
Endorsement notice
The text of the International Standard IEC 60228:2004 was approved by CENELEC as a European
Standard without any modification.

Special national conditions

Special national condition: National characteristic or practice that cannot be changed even over a long
period, e.g. climatic conditions, electrical earthing conditions. If it affects harmonization, it forms part of the
European Standard.

For the countries in which the relevant special national conditions apply these provisions are normative, for
other countries they are informative.
