0361TQ to BS 683 Part 4
Application and Description
This range of Cables are designed as highly flexible voltage leads, primarily for the secondary (high current) connection to automatic or hand held metal arc welding electrodes .
May also be used for non welding applications such as earthing return leads, flexible tails on power supply. Busbar connections.

Cable Parameter
Correction Factors
– Cable operating temperature also varies according to the prevailing ambient temperature. These cables are designed to give optimum performance up to an operating temperature of 85°C at an ambient temperature of 25°C.
The reduction factors for increased ambient temperature are:
