Power supply cables / IEC power connection cable designates a ready made. Insulated
electrical line / cable for domestic use that is usually provided with a country-specic
plug, usually with a grounded plug and an IEC power connection cable in the FRG. It is
used/they are used to operate electrical devices that do not produce any noticeable heat
and can be regularly loaded up to 10 A.
A harmonized system of abbreviations has been developed within Europe by CENELEC
(European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization) for the uniform identication of
electrical lines (see table the table on the next page). The type abbreviations for the lines
state the construction type and the intended use for the electrical lines in the electrical
installation. The identication contains all the necessary information for the construction
and optional uses of the line (materials and permitted voltages, for example). National
identications are normal for some line types however.
The abbreviations in Germany for harmonized lines are standardised as:
· DIN VDE 0292 System for abbreviated types of insulated lines
· DIN VDE 0293-308 Colour identication of the strands of cables/lines
and exible lines
· Standard series DIN VDE 0281 for PVC insulated lines
· Standard series DIN VDE 0282 for rubber insulated lines
Example of a line designation according to European Standard (CENELEC):
H 05 VV – F 3 G 0.75
H = Harmonised type
05 = approved for 300 V voltage
VV = Insulation of the strands and shrouding consisting of plastic (PVC)
F = ne wired (exible line)
3 = Number of strands
G = with green-yellow ground wire
0.75 = Line cross section in mm2
Different connectors specied in the IEC standard (International Electrotechnical Com-
mission) IEC 60320 are used, depending on the device to be connected.
