Overview
EN 4049-002:2005 is a CEN/AECMA aerospace standard that defines the general requirements and common characteristics for thermocouple extension cables used to connect thermocouples to instrumentation and equipment. The standard applies to thermocouple extension cable types with operating temperatures between −65 °C and 260 °C, unless a product standard specifies otherwise. It establishes the framework for product standards, material and construction rules, identification and marking, and references to the technical specification.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and purpose: Standardizes thermocouple extension cable characteristics for aerospace applications, covering connection between the thermocouple and equipment within −65 °C to 260 °C.
- Product standards list: References specific product standards for implementation:
- EN 4049-001 (technical specification)
- EN 4049-003 (single core NiCr/NiAl)
- EN 4049-004 (two core NiCr/NiAl, shielded and jacketed)
- Materials and construction:
- Conductors specified in the technical specification (see EN 4049-001).
- Core options: single or two-core constructions with overall dimension and weight factors (two-core factors listed).
- Colour coding:
- Nickel-chromium conductor: white
- Nickel-aluminium conductor: green
- Shielded/jacketed cables: jacket colors include green with white helical stripe (code 004) or plain green (code 006).
- Identification and marking:
- Manufacturer marking must follow ISO 2574.
- A shorter cross-designation (AECMA TR 6058) is recommended for drawings and marking (example format provided in the standard).
- Normative references: Includes EN 3475-100, ISO 2574, ISO 8815 and related EN 4049 parts.
Applications and who uses it
- Aerospace engineers and system designers specifying thermocouple wiring for aircraft environmental and propulsion sensors.
- Cable manufacturers producing certified thermocouple extension cables (NiCr/NiAl constructions) for aerospace use.
- Procurement and quality teams verifying conformity to aerospace cable identification, marking and construction rules.
- Test laboratories and maintenance organizations using the standard as a basis for acceptance, inspection and replacement of thermocouple leads in aircraft systems.
