This European Standard provides guidance to help installers, cabling designers and end users to understand
the characteristics of electric cables, with a rated voltage not exceeding 450/750 V (U0/U) or equivalent d.c.
voltages, so that the cable can be selected, installed and operated in a safe way. It is applicable to those
cable types that are specified in EN 50525 (all parts).
The guidance given in this European Standard can also be applicable to low-voltage cables of a similar type to
those specified in EN 50525 but not specifically mentioned in those standards. In these cases, it is advisable
to seek additional advice from the cable manufacturer.
Legal or statutory requirements do take precedence over the guidance given in this document.
