Workshop Cable – A Reliable Choice for Diverse Applications

The H05VV-F cable, also known as OWY, is a versatile cable designed for powering portable and movable devices. Made with class 5 stranded copper conductors, it offers excellent flexibility and ease of routing, making it an ideal solution for both professionals and home users. This cable is widely used in workshops, kitchens, offices, and households—anywhere reliable and safe power supply is required.

Construction and Properties

The H05VV-F cable features a robust design. The class 5 (flexible stranded) copper conductors are insulated with polyvinyl chloride material of type TI2, and the entire cable is protected by an outer sheath of polyvinyl chloride TM2. This combination of materials ensures resistance to mechanical damage and guarantees safe operation. The cable is resistant to abrasion and suitable for long-term use under varying conditions. Designed for operation at 300/500V, it complies with safety standards and is suitable for connecting a wide range of electrical devices. The outer diameter of the 2x1 mm² cable is approximately 6.4 mm.

Applications and Benefits

This cable is an excellent choice for connecting household appliances—washing machines, refrigerators, or water heaters—provided there is no direct contact with hot components. It also performs reliably in workshops, offices, and gardens for powering LED lighting or other electrical equipment. Its flexibility simplifies routing even in confined spaces, while its durable construction ensures long-term service life. The minimum bending radius of 38.4 mm facilitates installation and prevents cable damage during mounting. The fire reaction class Eca provides additional safety in case of fire. This cable is manufactured in accordance with European standards, guaranteeing high quality and reliability.
