What is Tri Rated Cable?

Tri Rated cable is also known as BS6231 cable, panel wire or switchgear cable. This cable is a single core class 5 flexible cable to BS EN 60228:2005. This means that the conductor is flexible with a core that is formed by a number of thin wires, which, in this case, are made from plain stranded copper. The core is surrounded by a HR PVC (Heat Resistant PVC) insulation. This high temperature, flame retardant cable is commonly used in control switchgear applications including instrumentation panels, motor control centres and motor starters.

What does Tri-Rated Mean?

Tri-Rated cable gets its name from the fact that it meets the specifications of three different standard setting bodies

• The British Standards Institute (BSI). The cable is manufactured to meet BS6231 Type CK

• Underwriters Laboratories (UL)

• Canadian Standards Association (CSA)

This triple rating means this Tri Rated cable can be used in the North American markets as well as the European ones for design flexibility and cost savings
