1 Scope
EN 50525-2-31 applies to non-sheathed single core cables insulated with thermoplastic
(PVC) insulation.

The cables are of rated voltages U /U up to and including 450/750 V.
0

The cables are intended for fixed wiring applications.

NOTE 1  Cables rated 450/750 V may be used at 600/1 000 V when this cable is used in fixed installations with
mechanical protection, within switchgear and control gear - see HD 516.
The maximum conductor operating temperatures for the cables in this standard are 70 °C
(V types) and 90 °C (V2 types).

NOTE 2  HD 516 contains extensive guidance on the safe use of cables in this standard.

This EN 50525-2-31 should be read in conjunction with EN 50525-1, which specifies general
requirements.
