Single-core PVC wire acc. to UL/CSA FIVENORM H05V2-K 0.5/AWG22 dark blue-orange 11019321

Universal connection cable – five standards, wide application

This single-core PVC cable, designated as H05V2-K 0.5/AWG22, is a versatile solution for internal wiring. Its construction and approvals make it an ideal choice for both professional installers and end-users looking for a reliable conductor. This cable stands out primarily for its compliance with as many as five standards – DIN VDE, DIN EN, UL, and CSA – which guarantees its safety and high quality.

Construction and properties

The cable is made of multi-strand copper wire class 5 (DIN VDE 0295/IEC 60228/UL Std. 758), providing flexibility and good conductivity. The PVC insulation type TI3 (DIN VDE 0207-363-3/DIN EN 50363-3 and UL-Std. 1581) is characterized by high mechanical and electrical resistance. The cable color is dark blue-orange, which facilitates identification in the installation. The cable is designed to operate at temperatures from +5°C to +90°C (flexible) and from -40°C to +90°C (stationary), and in the case of UL approvals even up to +105°C (AWM) or +90°C (MTW). The operating voltage is 300/500V (up to 1 mm²) and the test voltage is 2000V (depending on the cross-section). The minimum bending radius depends on the cable diameter and ranges from 4x to 6x the diameter.

Applications and benefits

This cable finds wide application in machine tools, distribution boards and internal wiring of electrical devices. Its versatility results from numerous approvals: HAR, UL-AWM, UL-MTW, CSA-AWM and CSA-Equipment-wire. This allows for economical storage of stocks and simplification of the parts list. Additionally, the materials used in production do not contain silicone, cadmium or substances hindering painting. The cable meets the requirements of LVD 2014/35/EU (CE marking) and has approval for flame propagation resistance (DIN VDE 0482-332-1-2 / DIN EN 60332-1-2 / IEC 60332-1-2 / UL VW-1 / CSA FT1).
