Why should you use BS EN 50290-2-35 - Polyamide sheathing compound for cables ?
Polyamide sheathing compounds are thermoplastic polymers that occur both naturally and artificially. Examples of naturally occurring polyamide compounds are wool and silk. Polyamides can be aliphatic, semi-aromatic, or fully aromatic thermoplastics.
BS EN 50290-2-35 provides best industry requirements for physical properties of granules and their respective limit values along with reference standard for the corresponding test methods to demonstrate its characteristics.
By using raw material and type test data as outlined in BS EN 50290-2-35, the raw material supplier can demonstrate compliance and warrant that the material is suitable for the specified application.
Adopting these best industry guidelines recommended by BS EN 50290-2-35 can help ensure adequate performance of polyamide sheathing compound for cables. As a result, incidents of product failure from poor electrical insulation and voltage stresses can be minimized.
