What is 60227 IEC 75 cable?
60227 IEC 75: oil-resistant PVC sheathed flexible control cable, unscreened (Chinese RVVY). Rating: 300/500 V; 2 to 60 cores (preferred 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 12, 18, 27, 36, 48, 60), class 5, 0.5 to 2.5 mm2; PVC/D insulation, oil-resistant PVC/ST9 sheath, no screen; numbered cores; 70 C (IEC 60227-7 cl. 2, Table 2). Standard: IEC 60227-7 (clause 2).
IEC 60227-7 (standard): 75 is the unscreened cable (2.1), so EN-JV's word 'screened' for 75 is not the standard's; 300/500 V; 2 to 60 class 5 conductors; PVC/D insulation; one green-and-yellow core from three cores, the others numbered; PVC/ST9 sheath 0.08 dL + 0.4 mm, at most 2.4 mm, which may fill the interstices; Table 2: 0.5 to 2.5 mm2, mean overall diameter 5.2 to 6.6 mm (2 x 0.5) and up; indoors, ambient +5 to +40 C, 70 C conductor and 60 C sheath (2.5). Makers: EN-JV p.28 (manufacturer): 60227IEC75, RVVY, with the same description as 74 ('screened'); the Chinese model has no P (screen) letter, so it is drawn without a screen. Code designation (IEC 60227-1:2007 Annex A, p. 20): the first numeral is the basic class (0 non-sheathed for fixed wiring, 1 sheathed for fixed wiring, 4 non-sheathed light duty flexible, 5 sheathed normal duty flexible, 7 sheathed special duty flexible), the second the type within the class, so the number is read whole. The old spelling drops the 60 ('227 IEC 53' = '60227 IEC 53', IEC renumbering); Helukabel's table prints 227 / 245, EN-JV and Top Cable 60227. Core identification (IEC 60227-7 2.3.3, p. 7 and 2.3.7, p. 8): from three cores one core green-and-yellow, every other core numbered as IEC 60227-1 4.2. Drawn as black numbered cores with the green-and-yellow core last; a two-core cable is drawn with one too (the reader gives every count the same rule; the standard has none below three cores).
