H05VV-F supplies indoor domestic and office appliances through a flexible copper connection cable. The construction combines class 5 bare copper conductors, TI2 PVC core insulation and a TM2 PVC outer sheath. It is intended for ordinary appliance service, including kitchen and laundry equipment when the equipment specification permits this cable type. Route the cable clear of hot surfaces and provide strain relief at the connection points.

300/500V rated multicore PVC construction.
Colour-coded cores, with green/yellow grounding specified from three conductors upwards.
Separate size rows give nominal insulation, sheath thickness, overall diameter and weight.
Choose the complete core-count and area combination from the table. Check the appliance entry, gland or cord grip against that row’s overall diameter. Match the connection cable to the ambient conditions and movement in service; use the separate heat-resistant range when the appliance calls for a 90°C conductor-temperature design.

What is the conductor construction?
Fine bare copper strands form a class 5 flexible conductor.
Is H05VV-F a single insulated wire?
It is a multicore cable with PVC insulation on each conductor and a separate PVC outer sheath.
Which core counts are shown?
The parameter table includes 2, 3, 4 and 5 core constructions; the available combinations vary with conductor area.
Can it touch a heater element or other hot part?
The route should avoid direct contact with hot components. Select and install the cord to the appliance’s temperature and routing requirements.
What should be specified for a replacement cord?
Confirm the cable type, core count, conductor area, protective conductor, length, termination and cord-grip fit against the equipment requirements.
