H07V2-K Power cable for Lighting Systems

Cable Construction

Fine bare copper strands
Strands to VDE-0295 Class-5, IEC 60228 Class-5, BS 6360 cl. 5 and HD 383
Special heat resistant PVC TI3 core insulation to DIN VDE 0281 part 7
Cores to VDE-0293 colors
H05V2-K (20, 18 & 17 AWG)
H07V2-K (16 AWG and Larger)

The H07V2-K power cord complies with EU harmonized standards and is designed as a single core cord with good bending properties.

The conductors can reach a maximum temperature of 90°C, but are not recommended for use above 85°C when in contact with other objects.

The cables are usually rated at 450/750V and the conductors can be single or stranded bare copper wires in a range of sizes from smaller to larger gauges, specifically e.g. 1.5 to 120mm².

The insulating material is polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which meets the ROHS environmental standards and has passed the relevant flame retardant tests, e.g. HD 405.1.

The minimum bending radius is 10-15 times the outer diameter of the cable for stationary laying and the same for mobile laying.
