RS PRO 225-2151 Tri-Rated Series Blue Hook Up Wire is a 16 AWG, 1.5 mm² cross-sectional area single core wire with a length of 305 meters insulated with flame retardant polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It is designed for use in electrical equipment, especially power switchgear, internal electrical connections, motor starters, and controllers.
The conductor consists of 30 strands of 0.2 mm diameter annealed copper wire, which offers excellent flexibility and conductivity. The insulation jacket is blue flame retardant PVC, making this wire compliant with BS EN 50265, VW-1, and FT-1 fire behavior standards, providing safety against flame spread.
This tri-rated cable is rated for 1 kV dc and 600 V ac, with a maximum operating temperature of 105°C and can withstand temperatures up to 60°C with coil resistance. It meets the BS 6231 standard, also known as panel wire or switchgear cable, which ensures reliability in demanding electrical installations.
Applications include wiring within electrical cabinets, relay and instrumentation panels of power switchgear, rectifier equipment internal connections, motor starters, and controllers in industrial and commercial electrical installations.
Manufactured in the United Kingdom, this tri-rated wire ensures compliance with BSI (British Standards Institute), UL (Underwriters Laboratories), and CSA (Canadian Standards Associations) certifications, making it suitable for international and industrial use.
The conductor is composed of flexible annealed plain copper strands for optimal performance. The blue jacket is made from heat resistant PVC which is flame retardant and durable. The wire supports a voltage rating of 1 kV dc and 600 V ac, suitable for control circuits.
Rated for a maximum operating temperature of 105°C, suitable for high-temperature environments. Complies with tri-rated BS 6231 standard ensuring multi-standard quality. Ideal for use in motor controllers, switchgear, electrical cabinets, and industrial electrical installations.
The durable PVC sheath provides excellent coil resistance and flame retardancy. Explore more from RS PRO tri-rated cables and find suitable wiring solutions for electrical and automation projects on EnvMart.
