Standards: CEI 20-13, CEI Unel 35318, CEI 20-11, EN 60228, CEI EN 50399, EN 60754-2, EN 60332-1-2, EN 50575:2014+A1:2016.

Regulation Construction Products: 305/2011 EU.

European directives: 2014/35/UE (LVD)  - 2011/65/EC and 2015/863/EU (RoHS).

Conductor: flexible annealed plain copper class 5 CEI EN IEC 60228.

Insulation: hard ethylene propylene rubber (HEPR) compound, of type G16, with reduced emission of halogen (corrosive gases) under fire conditions.

Colour of the core: 
Two cores: blue – brown.
Three cores: blue – brown – green/yellow   or   brown – black – grey.
Four cores: brown – black – grey – green/yellow   or   blue – brown – black – grey.
Five cores: blue – brown – black – grey – green/yellow or blue – brown – black – grey – black.

Sheath: PVC of type R16 with reduced emission of halogen (corrosive gases) under fire conditions.
Colour:  light grey.

Marking: continuous marking on the sheath: « ICEL or LOMBARDA FG16OR16-0,6/1 kV nominal cross section IEMMEQU EFP  ECOGAMMA production date Made in Italy  Cca-s3,d1,a3 », with under the sheath the IEMMEQU thread.
Progressive meter marking.

Minimum installation and handling temperature: + 0 °C

Maximum operating temperature: 90 °C on the conductor.

Minimum usage temperature: - 15 °C only if the cable is not subjected to shocks, vibrations, movements or other mechanical stresses. If the cable is operated at a constant current and so is not subjected to expansions and contractions due to the conductor temperature variations, it is possible to be used even at lower temperatures.

Maximum short circuit temperature: 250 °C on the conductor (for maximum 5 seconds).

Minimum permissible bending radii: 4 times the cable overall diameter.

Maximum pulling force during laying: 5 kg/mm² of the conductor cross section.

Current carrying capacity: see CEI-UNEL 35024, 35026.

Guide to Use: for internal installations, also in wet locations and for external installations; for installation in surface mounted or on metallic structures; direct laying in earth permitted. 
FG16OR16 cables are suitable for general applications in construction work subject to fire reaction requirements; for bundle installations for higher risk environments in the event of fire, having fire reaction class Cca-s3, d1, a3.
