Overview - EN 50363-3:2005/A1:2011 (PVC insulating compounds)
EN 50363-3:2005/A1:2011 is the CENELEC European standard that specifies requirements for PVC insulating compounds used in low voltage energy cables. Amendment A1 (approved 14 March 2011) updates the 2005 edition and was adopted by national electrotechnical committees across Europe. The document defines material criteria, required testing and acceptance practices for PVC compounds intended for cable insulation and supports consistent material quality in cable manufacture and testing. Note: in later administrative updates the standard is kept as a supporting standard (link to 2014/35/EU removed) and the CLC legacy was converted in 2021.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope and applicability: Requirements specifically for PVC insulating compounds used on low-voltage energy cables (part of the EN 50363 series addressing insulating, sheathing and covering materials).
- Material definition and characteristics: Describes the function and expected properties of PVC compounds intended for insulation (electrical and physical performance expectations).
- Testing and conformity: Sets out test methods and acceptance criteria that manufacturers and test laboratories should use to verify compound performance and consistency.
- Amendment notes: Amendment A1 modifies the original 2005 text; one explicit change noted in the amendment is the deletion of the “Insulation resistance test” from Table 2 (product standard calls up necessary IR requirements).
- Regulatory status: CENELEC members are required to implement the amendment as national standards; bibliographic and national implementation details are maintained by CENELEC.
Practical applications and who uses this standard
- Cable manufacturers: Specify and verify PVC insulating compounds for production of low-voltage energy cables to ensure consistent electrical and mechanical performance.
- Material suppliers: Certify formulated PVC compounds meet European requirements for insulation use and support customer compliance.
- Testing laboratories and QA teams: Apply prescribed test methods to demonstrate conformity and support product certification.
- Design engineers and procurement: Reference the standard when selecting insulating materials for cable specification, procurement, and product datasheets.
- Regulators and conformity assessors: Use the standard as a technical reference for compliance and market surveillance.
