Standards & References

    Listed technical references

    The supplied FHL2G cable material references LV 216-1 table A.1, VW N 108 558 and DIN EN 13602. Confirm which reference applies to the requested vehicle platform and construction.

    Regulatory notes in supplied material

    The supplied technical material lists EN 50575, Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU, RoHS Directive 2015/65/EU and REACH EC 1907/2006. Confirm the applicable declaration and project scope for the FHL2G cable order.

    Construction scope

    Confirm that the FHL2G cable is required as an unshielded, single-core, orange-sheathed silicone-rubber cable and that the selected cross-section matches the approved design.

Construction

The construction is built for flexible automotive electric powertrain routing.

  • Conductor: Class 6 fine flexible stranded copper for the power conductor.
  • Insulation: SiR (silicone rubber) insulation around the power conductor.
  • Sheath: Orange sheath colour as listed for the construction.
  • Shielding: This cable is described as unshielded; do not infer EMC shielding or screening performance from the model designation.
