6181B, 6182B, 6183B, 6184B and 6185B
LSZH cables to BS7211 are designed
for fixed wiring, lighting and low voltage
power applications.
They are suitable for domestic,
commercial and industrial building
installations.
Typical applications include lighting
circuits, power circuits, distribution
boards, control panels, conduit systems
and trunking systems.
These cables are commonly used in public
buildings, schools, hospitals, airports,
offices, data centres and transport
facilities where low smoke zero halogen
performance is required.
The thermosetting insulation provides
reliable electrical performance and
thermal stability.
The LSOH / LSZH sheath helps reduce smoke
emission and corrosive gas release
in the event of fire.
The cables may be installed in conduit,
trunking or other protected wiring systems.
Where additional mechanical protection
is required, the cable should be installed
according to project specification
and local installation requirements.
The cable should be selected according to
voltage rating, number of cores,
conductor size, sheath colour,
installation method and project specification.

FAQ
What are 6181B, 6182B, 6183B, 6184B and 6185B cables used for?
They are used for fixed wiring,
lighting and low voltage power circuits
in buildings.
They are suitable for domestic,
commercial and industrial installations.
What standard do these cables follow?
These cables are designed according
to BS7211 requirements.
Are these cables LSZH?
Yes. These cables use an LSOH / LSZH
sheath to help reduce smoke emission
and corrosive gas release in the event of fire.
Are these cables armoured?
No. These are unarmoured fixed wiring
cables.
Where mechanical protection is required,
they should be installed in conduit,
trunking or other protected wiring systems.
What is the difference between 6181B and 6185B?
The main difference is the number of cores.
6181B is normally a single core cable,
while 6185B is normally a five core cable.
Where are these cables commonly installed?
They are commonly installed in buildings,
public facilities, schools, hospitals,
airports, offices, data centres and
transport systems.
What information is required for quotation?
Please confirm cable type, voltage rating,
number of cores, conductor size, cable length,
sheath colour, installation method and
required standard.
Destination port or delivery address
is also required.
Can BURYCABLE supply 6181B to 6185B cable?
Yes. BURYCABLE can supply 6181B,
6182B, 6183B, 6184B and 6185B LSZH
cables according to project requirements.
