What is this standard about?
This European Standard specifies the characteristics of UV laser printable, nickel plated copper conductor electrical cables Crosslinked Ethylene Tetra Fluoro Ethylene co-polymer (XLETFE) family for use in the on-board electrical systems of aircraft operating at temperatures between – 65 °C and 150 °C. The voltage rating is 600 V rms at sea level. This insulation system has been used in aerospace applications using 115 V ac (phase-to-neutral) 400 Hz and 28 V dc. Verification of the suitability of cables for use in other electrical systems is the responsibility of the user.
These cables are suitable for airframe use. In case of conflict between this standard and other referenced documents the requirements of this standard shall take precedence.
