Scope
This East Africa Standard specifies requirements and dimensions for insulated flexible cables for operation at voltages up to and including 450 V to earth and 750 V a.c. between phases. The cables are primarily intended for use under the conditions envisaged in the Regulations for the Electrical Equipment of Buildings. The specification covers flexible cables suitable for operation where the combination of ambient temperature and temperature rise due to load results in a conductor temperature not exceeding: PVC, 70 °C for general purpose and flexible PVC insulation operating at maximum temperature of 70 °C, and, in the case of a short circuit, the maximum temperature does not exceed 160 °C; b) rubber, (i) 60 °C for type 60 °C insulation; (ii) 85 °C for type 85 °C insulation, (iii) 150 °C for type 150 °C, but 180 °C if there are no limits imposed by environmental conditions; and, in the case of a short circuit, the maximum temperature does not exceed:
