What is BS EN 2267-005 - UV laser printable electrical cables for aircraft about?
BS EN 2267 is a European Standard for aerospace series that discusses the general purpose of electrical cables. BS EN 2267-005 is the fifth part of the BS EN 2267 series that specifies the characteristics of UV laser printable electrical cables for use in the onboard electrical systems of aircraft at operating temperatures between − 55 °C and 260 °C.
It shall also be possible to mark these cables by hot stamp printing or inkjet printing.
These markings shall be in accordance with EN 3838.
Who is BS EN 2267-005 - UV laser printable electrical cables for aircraft for?
BS EN 2267-005 on UV laser printable electrical cables is useful for:
- The aerospace/aeronautical industry
- Manufacturers and suppliers of electric and insulated cables
- Cable installers

Why should you use BS EN 2267-005 - UV laser printable electrical cables for aircraft?
UV laser marking of aerospace electrical wire and cable is done to achieve an acceptable quality mark using equipment designed for UV laser marking of identification codes on aerospace wire and cable. A key benefit of UV laser marking is the absorption of the laser radiation on the surface of the wire insulation which changes the colour of the casing without any damage to the wire material inside.
Using BS EN 2267-005 best practices guidelines ensures less damage to electric cables when exposed to a harsh environment.
BS EN 2267-005 provides the materials used and construction of cables as well as includes the number of cores and colour coding of cores.
BS EN 2267-005 specifies the required characteristics and details on tests applied on cables and covers the designation, quality assurance, identification, marking, packaging, labelling, delivery lengths and technical specification for UV laser printable electrical cables.
BS EN 2267-005 enables cable adaptability with a high operational speed of the cables, allowing for quick and efficient operation of the cables in aeronautical equipment.
Furthermore, BS EN 2267-005 maintains the dependability of aerospace equipment and, as a result, the safety of passengers.
