What is BS EN 2235- Aerospace series. Single and multicore electrical cables about?
BS EN 2235 is a standard that covers the Aerospace series. Single and multicore electrical cables, ensuring their safety, operability and usability in aerospace applications.
BS EN 2235 specifies the required characteristics, test methods, qualification, and acceptance conditions of single and multicore cables, screened, jacketed and multicore jacketed cables for use in aircraft electrical systems.
BS EN 2235 has been prepared by the Aerospace and Defence Industries Association of Europe - Standardization (ASD-STAN).
BS EN 2235 covers terms and definitions, required characteristics, materials for construction, quality assurance, identification marking, packaging, labelling, and delivery lengths of electric cables.
Who is BS EN 2235- Aerospace series. Single and multicore electrical cables for?
BS EN 2235 on the Aerospace series. Single and multicore electrical cables are useful for:
- Spacecraft and space products manufacturers
- Aerospace products manufacturers
- Testing agencies involved in the inspection of spacecraft and aerospace products
- Quality control personnel for spacecraft products
- Aeronautical engineers
- Space researchers
Why should you use BS EN 2235- Aerospace series. Single and multicore electrical cables?
Aerospace electrical cables sustain intense vibration during takeoff, 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.
BS EN 2235 provides users guidance on quality assurance measurements, ensuring that the approaches, techniques, methods, and processes designed for the aircraft electrical systems are implemented correctly.
The guidance in BS EN 2235 enables users to develop and assess single and multicore, screened and jacketed electrical cables, ensuring quality, safety and longevity in aerospace applications.
What’s changed since the last update?
BS EN 2235:2015 supersedes BS EN 2235:2006, which is now withdrawn.
