FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

Not covered here? Send your drawing — an engineer replies within 2 business hours.

How does H05RN-F differ from H05RR-F and H07RN-F?
H05RN-F and H05RR-F are both rated 300/500 V with a +60 °C maximum conductor temperature, whereas H07RN-F is rated 450/750 V and handles heavy industrial impact. Between the two 300/500 V cords, H05RN-F uses an oil- and weather-resistant EM2 polychloroprene outer sheath suitable for outdoor and workshop oil exposure, while H05RR-F uses an ordinary EM1 rubber sheath restricted to dry indoor duty.
Why are harmonised H05RN-F sizes focused on 0.75 mm² and 1.0 mm²?
Under CENELEC EN 50525-2-21 Table B.1, the harmonised H05RN-F type covers 0.75 mm² and 1.0 mm² conductors in 2-, 3- and 4-core constructions for light appliances and hand tools. Larger cross-sections from 1.5 mm² upwards are standardised under H07RN-F (450/750 V) or supplied as 05RN-F national-type extensions where a compact 300/500 V outer diameter is required.
Can H05RN-F be used outdoors and around workshop oils?
Yes. The cross-linked EM2 polychloroprene (chloroprene rubber) outer sheath meets EN 60811-404 mineral oil immersion and EN 60811-403 ozone resistance requirements. It withstands grease, cutting fluids, sunlight and damp outdoor site conditions across an ambient temperature range of −25 °C to +60 °C when flexing.
What is the maximum operating temperature of H05RN-F?
Per EN 50525-2-21 Table 1, H05RN-F is rated for a maximum continuous conductor temperature of +60 °C and a maximum short-circuit temperature of +200 °C for 5 seconds. For applications where conductor temperatures reach +90 °C under higher ambient heat, specify H05BN4-F (EI7/EM7) or H05BQ-F (EI7/TMPU) in the same 300/500 V class.
