What is BS EN 50290-2-38 – Polypropylene insulation for coaxial cables about?
BS EN 50290 is a European Standard that discusses communication cables. The main objective of the series is to determine the performance of various insulation materials used for communication cables.
BS EN 50290-2-38 provides specific requirements for Polypropylene (PP) compounds to be used for the insulation of coaxial cables. It is to be read in conjunction with EN 50290-2-20 , EN 50 Grades PP-S1, and PP-F1 correspond to materials specified in the previous version 50290-2-25. These relatively soft polypropylene compounds have good low-temperature properties and are highly stabilized 117, and other applicable product standards.
Grades PP-S2 and PP-F2 exhibit properties more typical of Polypropylene and are designed for general Coax applications where high crush resistance and superior dielectric properties are needed.
