What is BS EN 2714-014- UV laser printable DR family cables about?
BS EN 2714-014 has been prepared by the Aerospace and Defence Industries Association of Europe - Standardization (ASD-STAN).
BS EN 2714-014 specifies the characteristics of UV laser printable DR family, 4 to 11 cores, taped, screened (braided) and jacketed electrical lightweight cables for use in the onboard electrical systems of aircraft, at operating temperatures between − 55 °C and 260 °C. Nevertheless, if needed, − 65°C is also acceptable as shown by the cold test.
BS EN 2714-014 shall also be possible to mark these cables by qualified compatible marking. These markings should satisfy the requirements of EN 3838.
Who is BS EN 2714-014- UV laser printable DR family cables for?
BS EN 2714-014 on cables, electrical, single and multicore for general purpose is useful for:
- Electrical cables manufacturers
- Electrical cables installer
- Safety regulatory organizations
- Quality testing agencies
Why should you use BS EN 2714-014- UV laser printable DR family cables?
Aerospace electrical cables sustain intense vibration during take-off, flight, and landing, while also being subject to harsh environmental 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.
Quality Assurance measurements in BS EN 2714-014 ensures that the approaches, techniques, methods, and processes designed for the aircraft electrical systems are implemented correctly. BS EN 2714-014 is important because it helps to enhance quality and user satisfaction. It can boost the customer’s faith and confidence with the aircraft and enhance their experience working with the aircraft in the long run.
BS EN 2714-014 specifies the materials required for the construction of the electrical cables. It also provides information about the colour coding, designation, marking, packaging and labelling of the electrical cables.
