Specification

Allowable Ampacity for 2.5mm 2 Core Industrial BC Flat LSF Insulated 6242B 300/500V Sheath Power Cable: 100 Amps

About:

The Industrial BC Flat LSF Insulated 6242B 300/500V Sheath Power Cable is designed for fixed wiring installations in industrial settings, particularly where space-saving solutions or low fire hazard materials are a requirement. "LSF" stands for "Low Smoke and Fume", which indicates that the cable releases minimal smoke and non-corrosive gas when exposed to fire. The 6242B specification indicates that this is a two-core (plus earth) cable.
