    SOS EAS 113:1999

    Adopts EAS 113:1999·EAS

    PVC Insulated cables — Spark testing — Method

    This East African Standard specifies requirements for PVC- covered conductors for overhead power lines. These requirements are limited to the PVC covering and to the testing thereof after application to the conductors.

  2. Adopted Somali Standard
    SOS EAS 114:1999

    Adopts EAS 114:1999·EAS

    PVC Insulated cables (non- armoured) for electric power and lighting — Specification

    This East African Standard specifies requirements and dimensions for non-armoured PVC insulated cables for operation at voltages up to and including 450 V to earth and 750 V a.c. between conductors. The cables are suitable for use where the combination of ambient temperature and temperature rise due to load results in a conductor temperature not exceeding 70 °C and in the case of a short circuit the maximum conductor 'temperature does not exceed 60 °C.

  3. Adopted Somali Standard
    SOS EAS 116:1999

    Adopts EAS 116:1999·EAS

    Copper conductors in insulated cables — Specification

    This East Africa Standard gives the requirements for plain or tinned annealed and plain or tinned hard drawn copper conductors in the finished insulated cables. It deals with solid, stranded, bunched and multiple stranded circular conductors and solid and stranded shaped conductors, but it does not cover the following: conductors for use in coils of machines and apparatus; conductors for aircraft cables; conductors for telecommunication cables; conductors for radio-frequency cables; conductors for mineral insulated cables; and conductors for special design, for example, hollow-core conductors.

  4. Adopted Somali Standard
    SOS EAS 117:1999

    Adopts EAS 117:1999·EAS

    Insulated flexible cables — Specification

    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:
