Sauf spécification contraire dans les normes de produit individuelles, la tension alternative maximale démontrée de puissance de ces câbles est de 115 V rms (phase à neutre), et de 200 V rms (phase à phase).
Ils sont divisés en types dont les caractéristiques sont données dans les normes de produit. Sauf indication contraire dans la norme de produit, les essais définis dans cette norme s'appliquent.

Aeronavtika - Kabli, električni, za splošne namene, z vodniki iz bakra ali bakrene zlitine - Tehnična specifikacija

Ta evropski standard določa lastnosti, preskusne metode ter pogoje za odobritev in sprejetje eno- ali večžilnih električnih kablov brez oklopa za splošne namene z vodniki iz bakra ali bakrene zlitine, namenjenih za namestitev v vezja letal.
Izolacija teh kablov je zasnovana tako, da prenese napetosti letala pri frekvenci do 2000 Hz. Največja uporabljena napetost izmeničnega toka pri ocenjevanju teh kablov je 115 V RMS za fazno napetost in 200 V RMS za medfazno napetost, razen če standardi za posamezne proizvode določajo drugače.
Razdeljeni so v vrste, lastnosti katerih so podane v standardih za proizvode. Uporabljajo se preskusi, določeni v tem standardu, razen če je v standardu za proizvod navedeno drugače.

Overview

EN 2084:2018 - Aerospace series: Cables, electrical, general purpose, with conductors in copper or copper alloy - Technical specification - is a European Standard published by CEN that defines the characteristics, test methods, qualification and acceptance conditions for single- and multicore electrical cables (without jackets) intended for installation in aircraft circuits. The standard covers cables with copper or copper‑alloy conductors and insulation designed for aircraft voltages up to 2 000 Hz. Unless otherwise specified in product standards, the maximum demonstrated a.c. voltage rating is 115 V rms (phase to neutral) and 200 V rms (phase to phase).

Key topics and requirements

  • Scope and construction: Requirements for conductor materials (per EN 2083 / EN 4434), uniform insulation cross‑section and smooth finish suitable for marking; multicore assembly per EN 2235.
  • Electrical ratings: Insulation designed for aircraft voltages (≤ 2 000 Hz); default a.c. ratings of 115 V and 200 V unless product standards specify otherwise.
  • Comprehensive test program: Qualification, first‑article, production routine, delivery and periodic tests covering visual exam, dimensions, ohmic resistance, voltage proof, insulation resistance, surface resistance, thermal ageing, bending, cold‑bend, flammability, arc tracking, strippability and more.
  • Specific test limits: Includes defined test voltages (e.g., 2.5 kV rms immersion, 5 kV dry, 8 kV peak impulse as alternatives), insulation resistance minima for 1 km (1 500 MΩ at 20 ± 2 °C; 15 MΩ at 95 ± 2 °C) and other measurable criteria (see EN 2084 test tables).
  • Qualification & quality assurance: Procedures follow EN 9133 and EN 9102 for first article inspection, extension of qualification across cross‑section groups, and periodic retesting every three years.
  • Identification, marking and packaging: Mandatory indelible marking (type, cross‑section, origin, manufacturer, year) per ISO 2574; packaging on drums/spools/coils with labelling and protected ends.

Applications

  • Design, procurement and manufacturing of aircraft wiring harnesses, internal aircraft electrical distribution and avionics interconnects where reliable copper‑conductor cables are required.
  • Use in both civil and defence aerospace sectors for general‑purpose aircraft circuits operating within the standard’s voltage/frequency limits.
  • Basis for supplier qualification, incoming inspection and regulatory compliance for aerospace OEMs, tier‑1 suppliers and cable manufacturers.

Who should use EN 2084:2018

  • Aerospace cable manufacturers and material suppliers
  • Aircraft systems engineers and harness designers
  • Quality and compliance teams at OEMs and maintenance organizations
  • Procurement specialists specifying cable performance and test requirements
