BS EN 4611-002-2018 pdf free download.Aerospace series – Cables, electrical, for general purpose, single and multicore assembly – XLETFE Family Part 002: General
This European Standard specifies the list of product standards and common characteristics of electrical cables for use in the on-board electrical systems of aircraft operating at temperatures between – 65 °C to 135 °C and 150 °C, dependent upon conductor type. The voltage rating is 600 V rms at sea level. This insulation system has been used in aerospace applications using 115 V ac (phase-to-neutral) 400 Hz and 28 V dc. Verification of the suitability of cables for use in other electrical systems is the responsibility of the user.

5 Materials and construction
5.1 Materials
The cable conductors shall be made of copper or copper alloy and nickel or silver or tin-plated
conforming to ISO 2635 Table 2 or as specified in product standards.
5.2 Construction
5.2.1 General
See individual product standards.
5.2.2 Cores
Number of cores, see Table 1.
6 Identification and marking
The identification and marking of cables by the manufacturer shall be in accordance with EN 2084.
As the designation, required for orders, is generally too long, for use in electrical drawings a shorter designation (without colour information) is given in TR 6058.
EXAMPLE
For multicore cable with jacket, the marking shall be optional on core(s) and mandatory on jacket.
For multicore cable without jacket, each core shall be marked with his own designation.
The cables (single core or jacketed cable) shall be capable of being printed with user-applied UV laser markings according to EN 3838. Aggressive marking techniques are not permitted.
