1.5mm² 6701B Cable (H07Z-K) LSZH Violet Class 5 Flexible 450-750V LSZH-1.5-VIOLET-1

The LSZH-1.5-VIOLET-1 is a 1.5mm² 6701B LSZH cable rated 450-750V, supplied in a 100m length in violet, ideal for panel wiring and equipment applications where low smoke zero halogen properties are essential.

This H07Z-K single core flexible cable is designed for wiring appliances, switchgear, instrument panels, and metering equipment, particularly in environments where smoke and toxic fumes arising in a fire could threaten life or sensitive equipment. The Class 5 flexible copper conductor ensures easy routing and termination in confined panel spaces, while the cross-linked LSZH insulation provides enhanced safety credentials.

Key Features

• 1.5mm² Class 5 Flexible Conductor: 30/0.25mm stranded plain annealed copper provides excellent flexibility for tight bends and complex panel layouts.
• Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) Insulation: Cross-linked EI5 insulation minimises toxic fume and smoke emission during fire, protecting personnel and equipment.
• 450/750V Voltage Rating: H07Z-K designation ensures suitability for a wide range of panel wiring and equipment applications.
• Wide Temperature Range: Rated from -15°C to +90°C, suitable for demanding industrial environments.
• Compact 3.4mm Approximate Diameter: Allows efficient cable management within panels and enclosures.
• Approximately 16 AWG Equivalent: Useful for cross-referencing with international specifications.
• 100m Supply Length: Convenient reel length for panel building and project work.
• BASEC Certified: Independently verified to meet the highest British cable safety standards.

Applications

This 6701B LSZH cable is specifically suited for internal wiring of appliances, switchgear panels, instrument panels, and metering equipment. It is widely used in control panel building, data centres, hospitals, public buildings, transport infrastructure, and any installation where fire safety regulations demand low smoke and zero halogen cable. The violet colour makes it ideal for circuit identification in multi-cable installations. The minimum bending radius is 3 times the overall diameter.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the overall diameter of 1.5mm² 6701B LSZH cable?

The approximate overall diameter is 3.4mm, with an insulation radial thickness of 0.7mm.

What is the difference between 6701B (H07Z-K) and 2491B (H05Z-K) cable?

The key difference is voltage rating: H07Z-K (6701B) is rated 450/750V, while H05Z-K (2491B) is rated 300/500V. Both share the same LSZH construction and standards but H07Z-K is suitable for higher voltage applications.

Can this cable be used in environments with extreme temperatures?

Yes, it is rated for continuous use from -15°C to +90°C.

What does LSZH mean and why does it matter?

LSZH stands for Low Smoke Zero Halogen, meaning the cable produces minimal smoke and no toxic halogen gases during a fire, making it essential for enclosed or public spaces.
