FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

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

Why do generator rental companies and loadbank engineers specify H07BN4-F over H07RN-F?
Under EN 50525-2-21 Table 1, harmonised H07RN-F is rated for a +60 °C maximum conductor temperature, whereas H07BN4-F uses +90 °C EI7 EPR insulation and a +90 °C EM7 CSP (HOFR) outer sheath. That 30 °C higher thermal ceiling allows substantially higher continuous current per cross-section under BS 7671 / DIN VDE 0298-4, reducing cable weight on high-ampere temporary power runs.
What does HOFR mean in relation to H07BN4-F?
HOFR stands for Heat and Oil Resistant and Flame Retardant (per BS 7919 / EN 50525-2-21). Both the EI7 EPR core insulation and the EM7 chlorosulphonated polyethylene (CSP) outer sheath withstand +90 °C continuous heat, EN 60811-404 mineral oil contact and IEC 60332-1-2 vertical flame testing.
Can single-core H07BN4-F cables be used at 0.6/1 kV?
Yes. Per EN 50565-1, H07BN4-F is rated 450/750 V for general flexible trailing duty and up to 0.6/1 kV (600/1000 V AC) in fixed, mechanically protected installations such as generator enclosures, transformer cubicles and cable trays.
Are Powerlock or lugged H07BN4-F assemblies available?
We supply H07BN4-F on bulk wooden export drums (500 m or 1000 m) as well as cut-to-length single-core and multicore assemblies terminated with crimped tinned-copper lugs, single-pole high-current connectors or industrial CEE plugs.
