H07RN-F and H07BN4-F: Cheat Sheet
INTRODUCTION
These cables are intended for a variety of applications, where appliances or equipment, including heavy industrial equipment require
flexible connection to the power supply. Used extensively for trailing and flexible supply leads in either single or multicore versions,
these rubber cables remain flexible even at sub zero temperatures. The improved abrasion resistance and the ability to withstand many
oils and chemicals make the cables suitable for the most arduous environments.

FAQs
What does H07RN-F stand for?
H07RN-F is a harmonised code — created by CENELEC to provide a standardised way of talking about specific cables. The H means
the H07RN-F Cable conforms with harmonised standards. The 07 identifies the cable’s voltage rating as 450/750V. The R refers to the
EPR insulation. The N relates to its PCP sheath. The –F highlights the fact H07RN-F Cable has flexible copper conductors.
FAQs
Why are the operating temperatures different?
Both cables are identified as general purpose, however due to the different material types: R types are 60°C, B types are 90°C
