Why should you use BS EN 2713-009 - YAG X3 laser printable electric cables?
Aerospace electrical cables sustain intense vibration during take-off, flight, and landing, while also being subject to harsh environmental conditions and varying temperature conditions. Cable faults cost money and create disruption, so there is an enormous demand for cable test techniques to ensure cables and joints are in good condition.
BS EN 2713-009 provides users guidance on materials and construction, including materials, screen, outer jacket, construction, colour coding of cores and jacket, enabling users to develop electrical cables with high strength and temperature resistance in electrical applications.
BS EN 2713-009 provides users guidance on the required characteristics of cables, including tests such as visual examination, voltage proof test, insulation resistance, surface resistance, overload resistance, accelerated ageing, and thermal shock, ensuring stable operability and prevention of hazards.
BS EN 2713-009 also provides users guidance on identification, marking, packaging, labelling and delivery lengths, enabling users in identification, storage, usability and delivery conditions for effective quality of electrical cables.
With obedience and compliance to BS EN 2713-009, users can develop and assess electrical cables for use in the onboard electrical systems, ensuring noise immunity and prevention of electrical interferences.
