10、itable for general airframe or equipment interconnect use. The dielectric insulation material is applied by extrusion or extrusions over the conductor. The standard requires the application of the dielectric material so as to provide the minimum penalties of weight and space whilst offering reliable

11、 performance over a full airframe life of not less than20000h. Cables manufactured to this standard are not required to meet the fire resistance requirements of BS3G100:Sub-section 3.13, but they are required to satisfy the flammability requirements of BSG230. Attention is drawn to BSG230 which spec

12、ifies the general requirements for aircraft electric cables (second series). A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself conf

13、er immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi andii, pages1 to14, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in

14、 the amendment table on the inside front cover.BSG237:1987 BSI 01-2000 1 1 Scope This BritishStandard specifies construction and performance requirements for a range of lightweight cables with extruded insulation suitable for general airframe use in the size range24 to0000, and for equipment interco

15、nnect in the size range24 to18. The following types of cable are specified. The cables are suitable for continuous use where the maximum stabilized conductor temperature does not exceed200 C. They are suitable for applications involving flexing at temperatures down to65 C. The cables are suitable fo

16、r use where the potential between conductors or between a conductor and screen, or the aircraft structure does not exceed600Vr.m.s. and the frequency does not exceed2000Hz. Interconnect cables are suitable for use in areas with some physical protection, such as behind panels or bulkheads, and may al

17、so be used as the basis for cables having additional protection, such as a jacket or screen and jacket. They also have an application for the internal wiring of equipment. Airframe cables are of sufficiently robust construction to be used for open aircraft wiring. The continuous and short-term curre

18、nt ratings for the cables are specified in this standard. NOTEThe titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 2 Classification Cables are classified according to the number of cores as follows: 3 Construction 3.1 General The materials and method of co

19、nstruction used for the formation of the cables shall be defined and controlled to the satisfaction of the Approving Authority 1) . No change shall be made to such materials or processes unless it can be shown to the satisfaction of the Approving Authority that the performance and handling propertie

20、s of the cable have not been degraded. The cable shall be made of materials such that the performance requirements of this standard are satisfied. 3.2 Conductors 3.2.1 Conductors shall comply with BSG231 before fabricating into completed cable. 3.2.2 Copper strands and copper alloy strands shall be

21、nickel plated. 3.3 Insulation The insulation for interconnect cables shall consist of one or more homogeneous extruded layers of dielectric material, and for airframe cables, two or more extruded layers. An overall coating may also be provided which, for the purposes of this standard, shall be regar

22、ded as part of the cable. The insulation shall be of a suitable material such that the performance requirements of this standard are satisfied. Only100% new materials that have been through only those processes essential to their manufacture and application shall be used. Where two layers are used,

23、they shall be of contrasting colours. 3.4 Screen The screen shall be constructed of a braid having a coverage of85% minimum, and a lay factor of less than3 when calculated in accordance with Appendix A of BSG230. There shall be no joints in the complete screen. Where breaks in individual strands occ

24、ur, the ends shall be brazed or tucked into the weave ensuring that the cut end is on the outside of the screen. There shall be not more than one such break in any300mm length of cable or in any10m length of individual strand. Strands from which the braid is constructed shall be nickel plated and co

25、mply with BSG231 before braiding. 3.5 Jacket The jacket shall be made of insulating material and shall be constructed in such a manner that the performance requirements of this standard are satisfied. Type01 interconnect Single core or twisted multi-cores only Type02 airframe Type03 interconnect Two

26、 or more cores, with an outer jacket Type04 airframe Type05 interconnect Single or multi-core, with a screen and outer jacket Type06 airframe class1: single core class2: two core class3: three core class4: four core 1) The Approving Authority is either: a) for UK civil aviation products, the Civil A
