What is BS EN 6049‑008- Protection sleeve in meta-aramid fibres about?
BS EN 6049‑008 discusses the flexible self-wrapping EMI shielding protection sleeves for electrical cable.
BS EN 6049‑008 specifies the characteristics of post-installation flexible self-wrapping EMI shielding protection sleeves for electrical cable and cable bundles made from meta-aramid fibres for the external sleeve, and nickel-copper plated braid as the internal layer and provided with a water repellent protection for aerospace application.
Who is BS EN 6049‑008- Protection sleeve in meta-aramid fibres for?
BS EN 6049‑008 on protection sleeve in meta-aramid fibres is useful for:
- Electric cable installers
- Electric cable producers
- Electric cable servicemen
- Safety regulatory bodies
Why should you use BS EN 6049‑008- Protection sleeve in meta-aramid fibres?
Electrical cables are installed in a wide variety of environments, and it is often necessary to provide protection for these cables to prevent mechanical and environmental damage.
BS EN 6049‑008 provides information about the required composition, dimension, mass of the sleeves, color coding, tracer line identification, and temperature range in electric cables installation.
BS EN 6049‑008 also specifies the electrical characteristics for self-wrapping EMI protection, the test methods, designation, and marking of self-wrapping shielding (EMI) protective sleeves.
