Overview

EN 50363-2-1:2005/A1:2011 is a CENELEC European standard (adopted by CLC) covering cross‑linked elastomeric sheathing compounds used for insulating, sheathing and covering materials on low‑voltage energy cables. Amendment A1 (approved 2011‑03‑14) updates EN 50363‑2‑1:2005 and has been adopted nationally under CENELEC rules. The document is retained as a supporting standard (link to 2014/35/EU removed in national notification) and remains relevant for manufacturers, test laboratories and specifiers of low‑voltage cable materials.

Key topics and requirements

• Scope and definitions - identifies the application domain: sheathing compounds for low‑voltage energy cables and the terminology used for cross‑linked elastomeric materials.
• Material characteristics - requirements for cross‑linked elastomeric formulations used as cable sheaths (mechanical elasticity, integrity after cross‑linking, compatibility with conductors and insulation).
• Performance criteria - sets out expectations and acceptance criteria for mechanical, thermal, electrical and environmental behaviour of sheathing compounds (ageing, flexibility, resistance to heat/chemicals).
• Dimensional and manufacturing tolerances - includes rules on dimensions and tolerances; Amendment A1 clarifies tolerance language (Table 2 footnote c: “No limit for the positive tolerance” replaces “No positive tolerance”).
• Test and verification - defines the types of tests and measurements required to demonstrate compliance (material tests, sample preparation and pass/fail criteria); exact test methods are referenced in the standard.
• Marking and documentation - requirements for product identification, technical data and traceability to support conformity assessment and procurement.

Practical applications

• Cable and compound manufacturers use EN 50363‑2‑1 to specify, design and qualify cross‑linked elastomeric sheathing materials for low‑voltage power and distribution cables.
• Test laboratories and quality departments use it to develop test plans, verify compliance and report results required by purchasers or regulators.
• Specifiers, procurement teams and installation contractors reference the standard when creating material specifications, purchasing components, or validating supplier claims.
• Regulatory bodies and certification schemes use the standard as a benchmark for material performance in low‑voltage cable assemblies.

Related standards and notes

• Part of the EN 50363 series addressing insulating, sheathing and covering materials for low‑voltage cables; users will commonly reference other parts of EN 50363 for insulation and covering materials.
• This document is an amendment to EN 50363‑2‑1:2005 and should be used together with the parent standard to ensure full compliance.
• Keywords: EN 50363‑2‑1, cross‑linked elastomeric sheathing, low voltage energy cables, cable sheathing compounds, CENELEC, insulating materials, dimensional tolerances.
