The cable designations are based on DIN 76722.
Example 1:
Designation for an unshielded low-voltage cable (FL) with thin-walled insulation (R), code for radia‐
tion cross-linked PE insulation material (2X) as per DIN 76722, a nominal conductor cross section
of 1.5 mm2 (1,5), (/), a maximum strand diameter of 0.33 mm (0,33), with tinned strands (Sn), a
cable composition of type A (-A), and a maximum long-term service temperature Tmax = +125 °C
(T125):
FLR2X 1,5/0,33Sn-A T125
Example 2:
Designation for an unshielded low-voltage cable (FL), code for silicone insulation material (2G) as
