BS 2G 238:1996 is a British Standard that specifies the requirements for electric cables designed for general airframe or equipment interconnect use. These cables are intended to operate at elevated temperatures up to 260°C. The key characteristics of the cables covered by this standard are: Conductors: The cables use conductors made of nickel-plated copper and copper alloy. Nickel plating helps enhance the conductors' resistance to corrosion and their performance in high-temperature environments. Insulation: The cables are insulated with a wrapped insulation material. The type and properties of this insulation are likely detailed within the standard. Temperature Rating: The cables are designed to withstand temperatures of up to 260°C, making them suitable for use in high-temperature environments typically found in aircraft and other equipment. Interconnect Use: These cables are intended for use in interconnecting various electrical components within an airframe or equipment. This suggests that they are used to establish electrical connections between different systems and components in these applications. It's important to note that the full details and specifications for these cables would be available within the BS 2G 238:1996 standard document. This standard is intended to ensure the reliability and safety of electric cables used in aircraft and related equipment that operate under high-temperature conditions. If you need more specific details or have questions regarding the standard, you may need to access the full document or consult with an expert in aerospace or electrical engineering.
