Rubber cable H05RR-F

H05RR-F specification

The type abbreviation of H05RR-F type cables, such as H05RR-F 3G1.5 or H05RR-F 5G1.5 provides information on the structure and intended use of the rubber cables. "H05RR" with the affix "-F" is always specified as a block. "H" indicates that it is a harmonised cable according to VDE 0285-525-2-21, while "05" indicates the maximum permissible rated voltage of the rubber cables. H05RR-F type cables are approved for low voltage, more precisely for a rated voltage of 500 V between the outer conductors of a three-phase system. The first "R" refers to a rubber core isolation, the second "R" refers to the sheath compound, which is also made of rubber. The affix "-F" clearly indicates that it is a fine-stranded rubber cable.

H05RR-F 3G1.5 specification – What do the type abbreviations stand for?

Besides the indicated type abbreviations of H05RR-F type cables, one also finds variable specifications such as H05RR-F 4G1, H05RR-F 2x1.5 or H05RR-F 4G0.75 sw. Between those two numbers, which specify the number of cores and the nominal cross-section in mm², there is either a "G" or an "X". "G" indicates that the H05RR-F type rubber cable has a green-yellow protective conductor, whereas this conductor is not present in cables marked with "X". For example, the affix "sw" following H05RR-F 4G0.75, indicates that the colour of the sheath is black.
The meaning of the type abbreviation is illustrated using the H05RR-F 3G1.5 cable as an example:

H: harmonised cable according to the VDE standard 0285-525-2-21
05: approved for a voltage of 300 V voltage between the outer conductor and earth (Uo) and a voltage of 500 V between the outer conductors of the cable (U)
R: rubber core isolation
R: rubber sheath isolation
F: fine-stranded (flexible cable)
3: number of cores
G: with green-yellow protective conductor
1.5: conductor cross-section in square millimetres

Characteristics and installation of the light rubber cable

The type abbreviation of H05RR-F type cables, such as H05RR-F 3G1.5 or H05RR-F 5G1.5 provides information on the structure and intended use of the rubber cables.

H05RR-F use as a connection cable

The light H05RR-F flexible rubber cables are particularly suitable for use with low mechanical stress at home and in kitchens. These flexible cables are used for the connection of electrical appliances at home, such as vacuum cleaners and irons. In the kitchen, H05RR-F type cables can be used for the connection of stoves and kitchen appliances such as small electrical appliances or hand-held appliances. H05RR-F can also be used as a connection cable for the connection of soldering irons. Since the conditions in offices are similar to those in private households, rubber cables are also used for connecting electronic devices with low mechanical stress.
