6491X and 6491X HR cables are single core PVC insulated cables for fixed wiring installations.
They are commonly used in domestic, commercial and industrial buildings.
Typical applications include lighting circuits, power circuits, switchgear, control panels and electrical distribution boards.
The cables are suitable for installation in conduit, trunking and protected wiring systems.
They can also be used for internal wiring of equipment where a single core PVC insulated cable is required.
6491X cable is commonly used for general fixed wiring applications.
6491X HR is the heat resistant version and is selected where higher temperature resistance is required.
The cable should be installed where mechanical protection is provided by conduit, trunking, enclosure or other suitable protection.
