<h2> New standard for installation wires and cables </h2> <p> GOST 31947-2012 compared with GOST 6323-79 introduced the following new requirements: </p> <ol class = "vacancyOrder"> <li> Wires with aluminum conductors are excluded. Conducting conductors are made only from copper wire (tinned and not tinned). </Li> <li> Cables with a conductor core cross section of 0.75-50 mm² are included. The number of lived in the cables - 2,3,4,5. </Li> <li> The range of conductor cores has been extended: </li> <ul class = "vacancyTextList"> <li> for single-core wires from 0.5 to 400 mm²; </li> <li> two-, three-core wires from 0.75 to 4.0 mm². </li> </ul> <li> Conductive conductors for flexibility can be: </li> <ul class = "vacancyTextList"> <li> not requiring increased flexibility (1 class up to 10mm², 2 classes over 10mm²); </li> <li> increased flexibility (grade 5). </li> </ul> <li> The design of stranded wires and cables should be as follows: </li> <ul class = "vacancyTextList"> <li> flat - for wires; </li> <li> round - for cables. </li> </ul> <li> Main conductors, grounding conductors for wires and cables, and zero conductor cables must have <b> the same cross section </b>.
